(Not that any1 probably will! lol) Summary- CARBY. Sobriki is back and is causing problems for Carter and Abby. THIS TAKES PLACE JUST AFTER beyond repair

Quickly glancing behind him, John Carter grabbed the needle sitting on the table, pulling up his sleeve he bit his bottom lip with horror as his brain registered what he was actually about to do. He began to shake and flung the needle across the room bursting into hard cold tears. Why was this happening?? Was it so obvious he didn't know what he was doing anymore??? His life since the rehab had been a long hard struggle for his body and mind. Sobbing he turned to her, the woman he could always depend on through thick and thin, the woman he loved who held his hand through his dark and despairing moments. She enveloped him in the arms without saying a word, his hands trembling on her shoulders at the thought of what he had nearly done.

"He's back Abby, He's back," he whispered through his tears and sobs.

"Carter you didn't?" she muttered, as she looked at the syringe halfway across the room. "You threw it all away? After all that?" her face dropped and her eyes filled with tears, she blinked them back and put he head in her hands.

"No, I didn't," he trembled. She pulled him into her chest and held him silently as he sobbed. Rocking backwards and forwards she kissed his head.

"Thank god," she sighed in intense relief. "He ruined your life once don't let him ruin it again, he was sick, he killed Lucy and nearly killed you. But he's better now, he's on release," Carter looked up at her,

"You're right, but I just can't face him,"

"You don't need to He'll be gone soon, I promise,"

"How soon?"

"About five minutes, I'm going to pull his Iv now," Abby explained she pulled back from Carter, "I do love you, don't ever forget that, ok?" she kissed him on the forehead and exited through an adjoining door to Sobriki's room.

Abby entered the room, all was deathly silent and the bed was empty, panicking she crossed the room to the phone on the wall and began to dial. She didn't get the chance. It was then that she felt it. It was intense and sharp and most of all painful, she gasped and screamed in shock as she looked back and saw Sobriki holding a pen knife, bloodstained. As she dropped to the floor, John heard her cry.

She'd only been gone for 30 seconds but it had been enough. Carter jumped off the gurney he had been sitting on and ran toward the room. He paused, could he really do this?? Was he strong enough?? He cut off the emotions, blinking back any tears of cloudy thoughts as he passed over the threshold into the darkness.

He flicked on the light and saw her lying there, just like Lucy, helpless afraid and dying.. He broke down.

Please RnR. Do you want me to continue??? Please Rnr
