CHAPTER 3: FEELING BETTER...
TIMOTHY MCGEE'S P.O.V.
I woke up and realized I couldn't move, because there was someone beside me. I looked over to see Abby; she had her head on my shoulder. I wondered how long she had been here. I needed to get up, but hated to disturb her.
"Abby." I said and reached over to brush some of her hair back.
"Tim, I love you." Abby said in her sleep and I was a little shock.
I had heard every word she had told me, but I'm not sure when that was. I now felt better than I had all day.
"Abby, I need to get up." I told her and she opened her eyes looking at me.
"I'm sorry, Timmy. Breaking up with you was..." Abby began.
"I know, I told Sarah not to..." I began.
"She didn't get a chance to tell me, before I found the letter." Abby replied.
"Can I get up, Abbs? I really need to." I told her and she moved so I could get up.
When I looked back she just smiled at me and I headed to the bathroom. I came out a few minutes later and headed to the kitchen, where I found her at the stove.
"Go on back to bed, I'll bring you something." Abby said and pushed me toward my room.
"Abby..." I began to protest.
"Go, I'll be there in a few minutes." Abby told me.
I decided since I had been feeling bad all day, I would take a shower before going back to bed. So I grabbed a towel and some clothes and took a quick shower.
When I came out, Abby was sitting on the edge of the bed looking at something.
"What are you..." I began, but then saw that it was among one of the first pictures of us that had been taken.
Tony had snuck down to the lab a few days after we had met, Abby and I were working together.
"I miss this you know." Abby said looking up.
"What? You and me together?" I asked.
"Ye...you heard everything I told you earlier?" Abby asked and I just smiled.
"Of course I did. What would have happened if you didn't see that letter?" I asked.
ABBY SCIUTO'S P.O.V.
I didn't know how to answer the question, because I had been thinking the two of us a lot and I don't know that things would have changed between us if I hadn't read the letter.
"I'm not sure; we would probably not even be talking about what we are. I never would have been able to tell you..." I stopped, I couldn't finish.
"Tell me what, Abby." Tim asked as he knelt in front of me and making me look at him.
"I don't think I would have admitted how I felt about you. Tim, I'm not sure that I'll ever be ready for a committed relationship and I know that's something you want." I told him.
"How about we just take it slow and see where things lead us?" Tim suggested and after thinking for a moment, it just seemed like a good idea.
"All right, but I don't want a commitment right now." I told him to make it clear.
"I know." Tim said and I put my arms around him.
"I never want to lose you and I get scared that I will every day you go out in the field. We lost Mike, Kate and Director Shepard. What if I lose you too? I don't know what I would do without you." I told him.
For a minute he just hugged me and then pulled back.
"I go out in the field every day and I will always fight to come back to you every time. You will never lose me, okay?" Tim asked and I just nodded.
Then I felt my eyes began to drift shut and I noticed that Tim looked a little tired too. Tim ate a little of the soup I had brought him and drank a little of the water. Then I lay back down with my back to him and he put his arms around me. For a while we just laid there and when I looked at him, he was asleep. He looked so handsome and then I fell asleep.
'We were on our way to break rule 12, but I didn't care. As long at Tim and I finally got to be together...at last.'
