Jay looked surprised as he was expecting a nurse to come bring him dinner, but instead Erin was coming into the room with a wheelchair and a nurse followed her to help him in the wheelchair.

''Are we going somewhere?'' He asked surprised as she was also holding his jacket.

''Well. We are going outside.'' She just said and he looked curious as the nurse helped him in the wheelchair and Erin started to push it then, out of the hallway and through a staff room.

They went to the terrace where the staff had lunch sometimes but Erin had made a deal for tonight and it was all theirs for this summer night. He looked surprised as there were a lot of candles on and around a table.

''What is this?''

''Our Italian restaurant for tonight.'' Erin said.

''They don't allow food into the hospital so figured I had to take you outside.'' She said as she pushed him to the table, stopped there and put the wheelchair on the breaks and he looked surprised at her and then at the table, filled with candles.

''I know it is not as romantic as being at the Italian restaurant but at least the idea is here and I got this, it is your favorite pasta too.'' She said and he smirked.

''I love it, it is perfect.'' He said then, sniffing the fresh air and looking at all the candles she had put around. He could not see a lot of other things very well but the little flames were dancing in the dark for him to see.

Erin sat down beside him and took a bag from under the table.

''I asked the restaurant if they could make some of your favorite pasta. I hope it still warm.'' She said then and he smiled.

''You did all this for me?''

''I love you.'' She just said, kissing him. Slowly she opened the bag then and put some of the pasta on the fork and brought it to his mouth.

''You are going to feed me?'' he said surprised.

''The nurse offered to do it but I figured it would be more romantic if we were with the two of us.'' She said and she kissed him on his cheek.

''Well, that is true.'' He said and he ate the pasta from the fork.

''but I can do it myself too, with one arm, if you keep the pasta on your lap.'' He said and took the fork from her in his free hand and started eating, bring the fork to his mouth again, slowly but managing and she also got a fork, taking a few bites as well.

She also put two wine glasses, but filled with water, on the table and Jay smiled.

''On a terrace, looking over the skyline of Chicago, with candles around me and with you alone, I would pick this over being in the actual restaurant any time.'' He said then, kissed her on top of her head and she smiled at him, but frowned then.

''Is there pasta sauce in my hair now?''

''Probably.'' He laughed.

With a smile and a napkin she whipped it out and laughed.

''might not be the best shampoo.''

''Might be, try it.'' He smirked again and she laid her hand on his cheek and kissed him, tender.

''I love you.'' She said then, looking deep in his eyes. She had arranged this for him because she knew she could never make up that he got injured while saving her, but this was a start and something she could do to make him feel better and get him out of that bed.

''I love you too.'' He said then, kissing her again and she laid her hand in his neck as they kissed and wanted to caress his head when he suddenly pulled his head again and looked at her.

''I am so sorry.'' She said then, scared that she had hurt him by touching the scars.

''For what? I just wanted to ask you to come sit on my lap, so I can maybe see you a little better.'' He smiled and she did so, their faces really close then and he smiled, his dimples showing.

''See, now I can see you a little better.'' He said then, laying his arm around her. She laid her head against his shoulder and although it was still a little sore for him, he still liked it and caressed her shoulder as they both looked at the view of the skyline and the candles surrounding them.

''You can't imagine how much I love you and care about you. I am so sorry you got hurt while trying to safe me.'' She whispered then,

''don't be sorry. If I hadn't done it we would not be having this moment right now and this is one of the best moments of my life…so don't be sorry and never feel guilty. I love you and I will never let you go.'' He said then and he looked at her.

''But I do feel guilty. You almost died and you have such a long recovery and it is all my fault.''

''It is not, you never chose for this to happen and you have been through a lot too. I just hope you won't leave me if I won't recover….or stay with me out of guilt.'' He said then, finally speaking up about the worries he had had the past few days when she had not been by his side because of work. He knew she had to be there too but it still worried him that work was better for her than he was, because he was worried not everything would go like like it had been before. She would be stuck with him and have to help him all his life.

''You will recover and you will walk and see again, I don't doubt that and I am with you because I love you and that will never change. Jay, I would never leave you if you don't recover and I won't stay with you out of pity, but because I can't live without you.'' She said and they shared a kiss.

She laid her head against his shoulder again, both holding each other and looking at the skyline, the candles and the stars, hoping they would never get separated again.

NOTE: Erin has arranged a big surprise for Jay and they had a romantic dinner of the Italian restaurant they spend their date in the beginning and Jay really enjoyed being this romantic with her again and being out of his room but he also spoke about his worried about their future but Erin assured him again that their love is too strong to break, even with his recovery. She also was able to put aside her struggles for one evening and they had a great time, with hopefully more for them coming up, right?
