Ok so this is a short fic. It is my way of writing Claire out of the
series. Hope you like it!
Summary: Claire was in the car accident. But she survived. She is now in the ICU with internal injuries. The doctors have been doing everything they can to save her. Alex has organized for the two of them to wed, as they all know she doesn't have much longer.
"How is she now?" Tess asked a passing doctor.
"I'm afraid she hasn't changed. She's still awake but I'm afraid she doesn't have too much longer left. If you'd like to do the ceremony I suggest you get it over with now."
"Thank you doctor. I'll just get the others." Tess walked out to where Nick, Alex, Charlotte, Meg, Terry, Stevie and Jodie were waiting.
"How is she?" Alex asked handing Charlotte over to Tess.
"Not good. There's very little time left. Meg, Terry would you mind coming in as witnesses for the ceremony?" Tess asked.
"Sure." They replied.
"Thanks. I'm sorry guys but we're only allowed 5 at a time. You can say your goodbyes first then we'll do the wedding thing." Tess explained holding back tears. Nick walked over and hugged her, as did Jodie and Stevie then they headed in to say goodbye.
Once they had returned Alex, Tess (carrying Charlotte) Meg and Terry walked in and stood around the bed. Followed closely by the priest.
Clair lay on her hospital bed with BOM on her arm. She looked around. The people she loved and cared for were all there to say goodbye. She knew it was her time to go and she knew there was nothing she could do to stop it. The only thing that mattered to her was becoming who she had always wanted to be. Mrs. Alex Ryan.
"I now pronounce you husband and wife. You may kiss the bride." The priest finished off.
Alex leant over and placed his lips on Claire's. "I will love you forever and always." He whispered and Claire slipped into a peaceful death.
"Every time we say goodbye
I die a little
Every time we say goodbye
I wonder why a little
Why the gods above me
Who must be in the know
Think so little of me
They allow you to go
When you're near
There's such an air
Of spring about it
I can hear a lark somewhere
Begin to sing about it
There's no love song finer
But how strange the change
From major to minor
Every time we say goodbye
There's no love song finer
But how strange the change
From major to minor
Every time we say goodbye"
