'To late to turn back now'

As Eric's eyes fluttered open and he became aware of his surrondings he noticed a certain blonde starring right at him. She had the same look on her face like at the hospitol and he again asked her whats wrong forgetting her last answer of im fine. To his surprise it wasn't just an im fine it was a heartfelt answer.

"Eric…uhh…you know how a couple days ago we promised eachother something. We promised that we would never fall apart, that we would always be there for eachother no matter what. Well I meant that, I truly meant it. I was speaking from my heart not caring who would here, who would know, but after that night I wondered if you meant it the same way I did. Do you?"

There was a long pause and Calleighs eyes began to fill with tears. `Great he is just gunna walk out like every other man that I let in my life' That was all that was racing through her mind, she didn't even think about the baby, but about how she wouldn't be able to stand being apart from him. She was freaking out until finally he spoke.

"Calleigh...you mean everything to mean, everything, and I guess im more concerend than mad that you don't know that by now. I know that you are the one I want to spend the rest of my life with because I need you with me all the time. When you're not with me I think about you, still to this day when I see you my heart skips a beat and screams I LOVE YOU. When you are not next to me at night when I can't feel you breathing, can't feel your heartbeat it hurts, it physically hurts. And everytime we make love and kiss, I know this is going to sound so cliché but it's like we are the only two people on the world."

Pretty soon he felt tears in his own eyes but he was a man and he dare not let them fall. As she was sitting there absorbing all he said he cupped her cheek lowered his head a kissed her. It was a long kiss, and he only grazed her lips with his, bit it was enough to make Calleigh understand.

"Do you understand me?"

All she could do was nod and pull his so close that they seemed as if they were one person. As she broke their connection she simoly said.

"I love you too"

"Ha that's it"

"Words cannot describe how much I feel for you"

When those words hit Eric's ears all he could do was stare into his favorite emerald eyes. He knew and she knew that they werent really looking at eachother but deep inside one anohter. 'Nows the perfect time to tell him o he will be so happy.'

"Eric….Im p-"

Ring Ring - she was interuptted by the worst thing in the world, her phone, crap why did they need her at work now, Come on.

"Its ok answer it, we can talk later"

She just wanted to take the call and be done with it. She looked and the caller I.D then realized it was Horation, and then she realized what time it was. Why is he calling so late? She hesitatly answered.

"Duquesne"

"Calleigh uhh I have bad news and I think you might want to sit doen if your knot already."

"I am" she said kind of scared

"Cardoza... Jesse has passed about a half hour ago. The docters did every thing they could but he was just too far gone."

The words hit her like a freight train all she could do was the one thing she never does, break down. Eric watched with worry 'what was goin on'

"Do you need me to come up there?"

"No it would be best for you to stay where you im having the nightshift take care of this one. Calleigh does happen to be there. Ive been trying to call his phone but he doesn't answer."

"Yes he is"

"Could you tell him, save me antoher horrid phone cal?"

"Sure"

"Take care Calleigh"

Line disconnected. She told Eric bettween sobs and he was equally shocked. Everyone just expected Jesse to wake up noone believed that this would happen. As she cried into his chest all he could do was comfort her until she said one of the strangest things.

"It's my entire fault that hes dead!"
