"Am I too late?" Jake called when he burst into headquarters.

"No but hurry! We're already losing her." Felix responded. Jake ran over to where Felix and Mr. Stockly were huddled around Hayley.

"Here I have the blood!" Jake said pulling out the container. Then stooping down to the ground Jake slowly opened Hayley's mouth and poured in a few drops of the Fertiaps blood into it.

"Why isn't it working?" Jake cried when nothing happened.

"I-I don't know!" Felix replied. "The Fertiap blood should have done it."

"No this can't be happening!" Jake shouted. "Hayley wake up! Please wake up!" Then he turned to Felix. "I thought you said the blood would work!"

"I thought it would!" Felix cried flipping through the pages of the old Troop records.

"Hayley please wake up!" Jake shouted. "I love you too much to have you die now." Felix and Mr. Stockly traded a strange look.

"I do love her I really do!" Jake wailed. "A-and I don't know what I will do with out her!" Before he could stop them big fat tears rolled down Jake's cheeks. "Please don't leave me Hayley Steele." He whispered into her ear. "I love you." With that one of Jakes tears rolled off of his face and on to Hayley's cheek. Jake didn't even bother to wipe it away.

But Hayley did. Opening her eyes Hayley surveyed the room. "Hey Jake." She smiled. And after wiping away his last tear, Jake smiled too.

After Mr. Stockly and Felix had gone home, Jake and Hayley sat together in silence.

"I got the Fertiap like I promised." Jake started.

"Thank you." Hayley responded.

"You have no idea how scared I was when the Fertiap blood didn't work right away." Jake told her.

"Actually it did Jake." Hayley admitted.

"What are you talking about?"

"Well when you first gave me the blood I actually did wake up right away, but I didn't say anything."

"Hayley!" Jake shouted jumping to his feet. "Why would you do something like that? You had us all worried sick!"

"I-I guess I wanted to know how much I really meant to you." Hayley answered.

"Well now you know." Jake said his expression softened a bit.

"Yea. I do." Hayley responded. "And I love that you cried for me."

"I-I was not crying." Jake retorted.

"Sure you weren't." Hayley giggled.

"I wasn't! I was just… I mean…I um…" But the kiss Hayley gave him was enough to silence his babbling immediately. Kissing her back, Jake ran her his fingers through her hair and thought about how his whole adventure to save life was her was worth it. After they pulled away the two smiled.

"Thanks again for saving me." Hayley said getting up. "I have to go but I'll see you later right?"

"Right." Jake nodded. As she left Jake smiled. Through sickness and health he would always be there for her. No matter what.
