Walcott was sweeting a lot. He couldn't understand what happened. He took his flashlight and open Matt's eyes. No reaction. This was bad. Either he was in a deep coma or... He had to speak with Gabby and Kelly. He left the room and saw them on the floor, Gabby was crying, so was Kelly.

« Doc ? »

He was speechless and looked down.

« No... No ! »

Gabby cried intensively.

« We could restart his heart ».

They looked at him. Kelly could see that there was a « but » somewhere.

« But... he is not responding to light. He had been without oxygen during five minutes, maybe more.

-So, he... He is in a coma again ?

-I don't know. He have to do an EEG to see... To see if he has brain activity.

-He... He may be brain dead ?

-It's a high possibility. Or he could be in a deep coma. We don't know. We have to wait a few hours to know that. We'll run some tests.

-Okay... »

Kelly's voice was fadded. Gabby stood up.

« Ouch ! »

Gabby grabbed his stomach.

« What ? What is it Gabby ?

-My... It hurts ! AHHHHH ! »

Kelly was panicking.

« Doc ? What is it ?

-She is in labour ».

He run on the room to take two nurses with him.

« We need to go on a delivery room.

-I... I CAN'T MOVE !

-Gabby you have to do. You can't give birth on the hallway. It's not sane.

-MATT !

-I'm here Gabby, Matt can't be with you.

-I KNOW ! BUT I CAN'T LEAVE HIM !

-You have to give birth to his first child Gabby ! I think he wouldn't let you do this here ».

She was screaming, and breathing in and out quickly.

« Okay... Okay... Oh God...

-What ?

-I don't know... I... AHHHH ! »

Kelly stayed with Gabby, while she squeezed his hand strongly. Walcott had to see what was going on.

« Gabby, your tight is fully dilated. I can see the top of the head. Silvia, go get a gurney now ! She have to go to the delivery room, and call a midwife ».

She left and ran.

« Gabby, I know it will be difficult, but we have to do this okay ?

-I KNOW !

-Kelly, can you grab her ?

-Yeah ».

He lifted Gabby in his arms. She was screaming of pain. After arriving on the room and everybody was in place, Gabby knew what was going on.

« You can't... YOU CAN'T DO THAT !

-Gabby, we have no choice, however you could lost the second baby ! »

She looked on Walcott's eyes. He wasn't kidding.

« I... I just want to have my baby... Matt's baby... »

She was crying again.

« That's what we will do this Gabby. Okay ? You have to stay with me. For now, buddies are good, okay ? But if we don't do what we have to do, we will be losing the both of them.

-I know... I'm just scared doc...

-You have to stay strong... For Matt ».

She closed her eyes. She was thinking of Matt. His smile, his laugh, his hands grabbing hers.

« Okay... Let's do this.

-Right ».

Gabby knew that they have to do a c-section, because by natural way, she could lose their babies. It was the only way to save them.

« Gabby, you're still with me ?

-Yeah, I'm still here.

-Great, should I say to you what will be happening ?

-Yeah, I want to know.

-Okay. I will begin to open your belly okay ?

-Hu uh... »

She felt something but no pain, just the incision which was made.

« I can see buddies now ».

No time to sigh. Some monitors sounded.

« What is this ? Doc ?

-It's first buddy. He is in distress ! I have to make that quick okay ?

-Yeah... Yeah ».

She saw one of the nurses approach the doc and carry something.

« It's him ? Doc it's him ? Why isn't he crying ?

-Gabby...

-WHY ? »

She was crying again. Matt, buddy... She couldn't lose them. Not like this. No.

« Gabby, he is prenat. He can't breathe on his own and he was in distress. Silvia will take care of him okay ?

-Okay.

-How do you want to call him ?

-Matt... Matt ans I had a conversation before his proposal. We... We had a fight with baby names... If it was a boy, he wanted to call him Andrew... Andrew Kelly Casey... For his two best friend... So... Call him Andrew... Andrew Kelly Casey...

-All right... So, Andrew, welcome to the Earth ! »

She was in balance. She wanted to cry, but laugh too. A mix of both arrived in her face. Tears and laughs.

« I want to see Matt. Doc... I want to see him.

-I know. But you can't. We are running some tests for now.

-He... He is not dead, is he ?

-No Gabby. But... He was without oxygen during a long time. Five minutes, probably more. I don't know if there is brain damage. It's why we're running tests Gabby. You have to stay strong. Matt is strong. With all his injuries, he couldn't be alive after the surgery. But he was. Then he woke up, and began to breathe on his own, to have his memory back.

-I know. I can't lose him, you know ? Not after that. I couldn't support this ».

Walcott tried to cumfort Gabby.

XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

All the firefighters were in the waiting room. Kelly had called them after Gabby was in labour, and after Matt's heart stopped. They walked in the room, made thousands steps, waiting for a good news. Because they didn't want bad news... They couldn't have bad news. Kelly knew Matt was in highly critical condition. This was frightening him. He was shaking.

For hours later, Walcott came in the waiting room. He saw all the firefighters and knew that they were here to both Gabby and Matt.

« I begin with Matt or Gabby ?

-Buddy ?

-Okay. Buddy was in distress. We had to do a c-section, because in natural way, it would cause the dead of buddies. When he was out, he wasn't breathing. So we bring him to the NICU, he is on a ventilator but he is out of the wood. Don't worry for him. He is strong for a prenat.

-And, hum... And Matt ?

-Kelly explained what happened ?

-He just said that his heart stopped.

-Okay ».

Walcott took a deep breath.

« His heart stopped indeed. But we had some difficulties to restart it. We did, but he stayed without oxygen during at least five minutes. And he had no reaction to light. So we ran some tests to see if he was in a coma or not.

-And ? He is ?

-He has a weak brain activity. He isn't brain dead, but it's not so far. He is in a deep coma.

-You... You know what happened ?

-No... Gabby said his heartbeat was increasing, but he had no arrhythmia. I had a theory, but until he is in a coma, I can't say if it's a good theory or not.

-What is your theory ?

-With the swelling going down, he began to have his memory back. He had a flashback no long time ago about he and Kelly saving Hallie. So I think he had a flashback again.

-A flashback can cause that ?

-It's possible if it is strong, strong enough to stop his heart. Maybe the day he was injured ? I don't know, it's a simple theory. I have to speak with doctor Charles to know if it's really possible, but I think it is.

-So, he will wake up ? »

All the firefighters waited for an answer, but it never came.

« No... This can't be possible...

-He is in a coma, so I can't tell you when and if he will wake up. I'm sorry. I want like you to save Matt. He is strong. He went through this. He can do that again. I can't promise anything, but I will do all I can to help him ».

They nodded, looking their feet.

« Kelly ? Gabby want to see you. I think she needs you.

-Buddy ?

-I think yes.

-What is his name ?

-Gabby... She said to called him in memory to Matt's best friend. Andrew Kelly Casey ».

They were speechless.

« Who is Andrew ? I didn't know him. If he is his best friend, why isn't he here ?

-He... He is dead three years ago, in the line of duty. We were in the same training class a the Academy. We knew each other there. And we became best friends.

-She said to me that before his proposal, they had a fight to find baby names. And he wanted to call their baby Andrew if it was a boy. But she didn't say to me if it was a girl ».

Doctor Walcott took Kelly with him and let him go see Gabby in the NICU.
