Mary Margaret pushes the cart with flowers and reading material along the familiar route, stopping to give some comfort to each of the patients on her rounds. She looks up as she enters the ward where he was and sees him dressed and waiting. He must be waiting for her, she thinks as she looks away.
“Excuse me,” a voice calls out.
Mary Margaret looks up to see him standing in the doorway. “Do you need something?” She says in response.
“You were the one that found me. I want to think you.” David smiled nervously at her. “Did you know me before my accident?”
“I don’t think so.” She walked to where he stood leaving her cart behind. “You seem so familiar.”
“Yes, it’s like I remember but I can’t really.” David looked at her intensely. He was sure he knew her but he didn’t know how or where.
His stare was starting to make her blush. Mary Margaret felt the burning on her cheeks and hoped he wouldn’t notice. “I feel like that too but I don’t know where we could have met.” She looked at the floor. She knew that Henry thought he was Prince Charming but she couldn’t let herself believe it. He was married to someone else.
“I’m sure it will come to me. They’re letting me get out of here.” David held out his hand to her. “Thank you for visiting me. I guess I’ll see you around town.”
Mary Margaret looked at his hand and shook it then met his eyes. “Yes, I hope to see you around town. I need to get back to my rounds.”
“See you around then,” David smiled.
Mary Margaret smiled back and went back to her cart and her rounds. As soon as she was out of his sight she leaned against the wall and sighed heavily. If he was Prince Charming, the world was playing a cruel joke on her and it hurt. She shook off her pain and went back to what she had come to do.
