A/N: this is a songfic…song is the title by Shania Twain. I dunno why I got this idea but I did. I am still unsure of its "future" but I should have it all worked out in no time. Meanwhile just RnR!!!! (No flames) and I should mention that Abby and carter might be just an incy weency little bit out of character, but oh well…that stuff isn't suppose to matter.
Disclaimer: don't own the song, but I do own the fic so STAY OFF!! (lol im just joking…)
Summary: Carter is still in Africa, and Abby is just ripped apart…Her whole life changes on a girl's night out with Susan and Chen. Will it stay that way?

Chapter 1: Hurting Inside
Yet again another day with no sign of him. No phone call, no letter, no nothing. Abby sighed to herself. "He's still in Africa. He's still in danger. How have I survived without him?" she thought to herself. Suddenly, her thoughts were broken by a cheery Susan.
"Hi Abby! How are you?" Susan smiled.
"Oh hey Susan…"
"Abby, come on. You can't be this gloomy all the time. It's only been 6 months…."
"Only been 6 months!? Susan, how would you feel if the love of your life, your soul mate, was lost somewhere millions of miles away from home, probably either starving to death, or dead already! I haven't heard anything from him since the day he left, and you expect me not to worry!?"
"Okay, Okay…I'm sorry…I didn't mean to say that. I truly am very sorry…I miss him too."
Suddenly Abby felt just awful for saying that. She knows Susan and Carter are best friends, and she knows Susan was only trying to look on the bright side of the situation. "That's definitely Susan. Always the cheery one. I guess that's why Carter liked her so much." She thought.
"Hey Abby…I know the perfect thing that will brighten your spirits."
"What would that be? Cause right now, I don't think anything ever will…"
"Oh don't be so hard on yourself! I'll go ask Chen and if she says it's cool then we can have a Girl's Night Out. What do ya say?"
"Oh Susan! Not another Girl's night out!"
Susan chuckled. "Oh come on!! It won't be that bad. I know of an awesome Karaoke place that just opened last week…maybe we could go there."
"Oh I don't know…."
"Pleeeeeeease!!" Susan practically begged. "It'll be great!"
After a moment of thinking, Abby agreed.
"Great! Thank you so much Abby! And you know what, I'll even buy for you." Susan said as-a-matter-of-factly. "I'll go find Chen."
"Your welcome! And thanks a lot…for everything Susan."
"Your welcome."
"By the way I think she's in trauma 1."
"Thanks!" Susan yelled, halfway down the hall.
Abby sighed to herself. This was going to be a long night.
