Lots of Jack/Sue in here!
Delores entered Sue and Lucy's room and Levi eagerly greeted her, hoping for more hospital food. Delores chuckled and patted his head. "Sorry, baby." She smiled. "That splurge I gave you this morning should carry you till lunch time." Levi moaned. "So, how they doing?" She looked over at the two girls sleeping peacefully, or at least both of them should've been. One of them was not. Sue's eyes were open and she was anxiously staring at Delores. Delores smiled widely and walked over to the bed. "Well, 'morning, precious." She said cheerfully. "How ya feeling?"
"Miss Mitchell?" Sue began.
"Ahh. Forget that. You can call me Delores."
"Delores, do you know how Jack is?" Sue blurted anxiously. "Have you heard anything?"
"I'm afraid he's the same." Delores shook her head and Sue hung her head. "Now, honey," Delores kindly patted her shoulder and made sure the young woman was reading her lips, "he's no better, but no worse. And he ain't goin no place or he'll have me to answer to!" Sue only slightly smiled, confused by that remark.
"What do you mean by that? Did I read that right?" Sue asked.
"Uh-huh. That dashing fellow of yours made a bargain with me and I'm gonna see that he keeps it! If not? Well, he won't wanna run into me again if he comes back to California!"
"W-what kind of bargain?"
"Oh. Well, you see, he doesn't know about it yet." Delores laughed, and Sue couldn't help snickering. "Ah, now there's some sunshine. That's what I like to see."
"Delores, can I please see Jack? I need to be with him. Will you take me to him, now?" Sue begged.
"I think we'd better get something in your stomach first."
"Not till I see Jack." Sue said firmly.
"Whoa!" Delores exclaimed with her hands on her hips. "Well, warn me not to be so easily taken in by that sweet face of yours again! Sure, I'll take you right now." Sue smiled and signed thank you. The senior nurse settled her into a wheelchair, and with Levi at her side, they headed towards ICU, leaving Lucy in her exhausted slumber.
Mark was sitting in the chair still staring intently at Jack and periodically glancing at the monitors: no change, good yet not good. Then he heard little clicks pattering on the tile floor and smiled as Levi trotted into the room and greeted him panting. He reached out his paw. Mark laughed and rubbed behind his ears plus shook his paw. "You know, Levi? If I could talk the medical board into it, I'd honor you with an award for outstanding practice in therapeutic medicine!" Levi woofed and Mark grinned. Delores wheeled Sue into the room and Mark rose to his feet. "Good morning, Sue." He smiled warmly.
"Hi." Sue weakly smiled back at her good friend.
"Well, you're slowly starting to look better, young lady." Mark said with satisfaction. "Your bruises are starting to lose some of their color."
"Thanks." Sue said but then her eyes went to Jack. Mark eyed Delores and tilted his head toward the hallway. She nodded and patted Sue's shoulder, turning her face toward her.
"If you need anything, honey, just give a yell." She stated. Sue nodded. Mark came to her.
"We'll give you two some time alone." He whispered. Sue smiled, a real smile, and signed thank you to which Mark responded by signing you're welcome. Then he quietly walked out with Delores.
"For that sweetheart's sake more than the bureau's, I hope that boy pulls through." Delores remarked.
"Oh, so do I!" Mark agreed. "So do I."
Levi placed his front paws on the bed and nudged Jack's limp hand, just like he had with Sue so many times in the passed week. Jack didn't respond and the forlorn dog glanced mournfully at Sue who returned his sad gaze, then placed his head between his paws. Sue slowly, gingerly rose out of the wheelchair and sat on the edge of the bed. She passionately gripped Jack's hand. "You've got to get better, Jack. You just have to." She said dismally. "If you don't, who am I gonna have to keep me in line at the bullpen? Who will berate me with reason but then encourage me to do better because he understands me and sees my potential better than anyone else does?" Sue let silence reign for a few moments and tears came to her eyes. "Do you..." She sniffed. "Do you remember when I told you that my informant bench pressed 300 pounds in front of me? And then you attempted to do it too, with regrettable results?" Sue slightly chuckled, but the tears became even more adamant. "I acted casual, but...I meant what I said when I told you that some people think brains can be more attractive than muscles! And I meant it, Jack, when I said that I liked you just the way you are!"
"I'm sorry, Jack!" Sue sobbed. "I'm so sorry! I...I lied to you, all this time. I've...I've been so dishonest with everyone, especially myself, but you worst of all. I was wrong to try to convince myself otherwise. Please forgive me, Jack! Forgive me. I've tried to run away from it, pretend it wasn't real, I even teased you about it, but...I can't do that any longer. I...I..." Sue had to gulp hard several times before continuing as the tears streamed down her face and her heart pounded wildly as she opened her mouth again.
"I...I..." Sue signed into his hand as she spoke. "I love you, Jack: I L-O-V-E Y-O-U J-A-C-K. I love you, special agent Jack Hudson!" Sue cried in a loud whisper. "I love you. I have from the day you brought me into the bullpen. It showed me that you weren't patronizing me-like may people had before-when you wanted to explore my lip-reading skills. You were serious, you meant it, and though we've gotten into scrapes, a lot of them thanks to me, you've never treated me like I was inferior.
'You didn't just make me feel like a regular human being, you made me feel like a woman. I mean, cherished, cared for, protected...wanted! My parents are wonderful people and they always cared for me, I've had the greatest friends in my whole life at the FBI. But...Jack, you are my best friend. Little things that others may not notice, you notice and read. I feel like I do the same with you. David is a good friend, but...no man has ever done for me what you've done, the way you do it in that silent yet obvious, deep way of yours.'"
Sue hung her head and tenderly placed her other delicate hand over his that she was still holding. "I never, ever thought before that a man would actually care for me the way you have." She whispered. "Jack, I don't know what's gonna happen down the road, and I don't know if and when you'll tell me your true feelings, but...if you truly want me, I mean: if you truly want me, then I will be yours, Jack. Yours to stand by you, and cheer you on, and work alongside you, yours to be there if you need a listening ear to tell your troubles to. And I will do it gladly!" Sue inhaled deeply, feeling an incredible burden release from her heart. There, she'd done it! She confessed about deceiving herself and him in pretending she didn't care, and most importantly, she'd expressed her heart's desire to love him unconditionally, for always! She didn't know how they would come out of this, but one thing she did know: she'd made her declaration, and no matter how things turned out for them, she'd be here for him, whether he survived or not!
Sue looked up at the ceiling. "God, I don't know if he can hear me," She prayed with tears, "but You can do anything. Please..." she gazed at the man she loved so much, aching to see him open those beautiful dark eyes of his and that wide, genuine smile. "Please, God! Please help him to hear me! If...even if..." She choked on the words. "Even if he doesn't make it out of this, please...please at least make it so that he heard what I just said, so...so he'll know! Please!" Then she felt a most welcoming, soft nudge under her arm. She looked down and there was Levi, her ever faithful companion who never gave up on her. She smiled and kissed his head then just stroked his mane as he sat with his head in her lap.
Sue lost track of the time as she gazed endlessly at Jack. Then suddenly, Levi rose his head high, as if on alert and Sue couldn't hear it but she could tell that he was barking. Her brows furrowed and she looked at Jack: he wasn't awake. Confused, she looked at the heart monitors. They were displaying dropping digits and an erratic heart-line that had been steady when she was brought in here. Sue quickly stood up despite the pain in her body. "Jack?!" She called. "JACK?!" Levi was barking loudly and Sue ran out into the hall. "Help! Someone, please help!"
Bobby had only slept for a few hours at the most, but he opened his eyes and didn't recognize where he was. He glanced around worriedly then saw Norman Briggs enter. "Mr. Briggs." Bobby spoke.
"Special agent Manning. Just what are you doing in Dr. Sloan's office?" Norman asked gruffly.
"I'm in his office?" Bobby asked, confused. "Sorry. I didn't know." He stretched hard and clumsily stood up.
"I'd really like to know what you're doing here in the first place." Norman frowned. "We have a visitor's lounge just for this very thing."
Bobby scratched the back of his head and yawned. "Excuse me." He sighed. "Sorry, I must have dozed off. Still not sure how I got in here. Must have been sleep-walking."
"Well, if you have a hazardous habit of sleep-walking, might I suggest you see a doctor!" Norman huffed.
"Would ya mind showing me out? I'm not sure where to go from here."
"Be my pleasure." Norman pursed his lips and Bobby followed the short, stout man back into the hallway.
"Look, I'm sorry about that, mate." Bobby grinned. "I still don't know how I got in there." Norman shook his head and directed Bobby to the coffee dispenser. "Appreciate it, mate." He sipped the hot drink as Norman departed. "Blah!" Bobby winced and shook his head, trying to wake up.
"Hey, rise and shine!" An extremely perky voice piped up next to him, startling Bobby. He looked to see Jessie and Susan standing there.
"Watch it, mate!" He gasped. "You could give a guy a heart attack around here."
"Really?" Jessie raised his eyebrows.
"Agent Manning, you look exhausted." Susan stated.
"Ahh," Bobby waved it off. "I'm fine." He yawned again. "How's Jack?"
"The same." Jessie sighed. "I'm gonna check on him again in a while."
"Appreciate it." Bobby said with his eyes drooping. "I think I'll go..." He started to walk forward but staggered. Jessie and Susan each grabbed his arms.
"Whoa, whoa, whoa." Jessie chuckled. "Whoa there, buddy."
"Why don't you get some rest?" Susan suggested. "We'll look after your friend." Bobby yawned widely.
"Why don't we take you to observation where you can sleep it off?" Jessie smiled. "You'll feel like a new man."
"Dr. Travis to ICU! Dr. Travis to ICU, stat!" The intercom blurted out. That got Bobby's attention! Jessie let go of the Aussie, leaving the tall, robust guy to Susan's care and he raced down the hall. Susan was stumbling as Bobby's stunned, limp form leaned on her shoulder.
"Look, uh..." Susan stammered. "Why don't you...go to the lounge? I need to help him." She shoved Bobby to stand upright then ran off. Bobby shook his head to snap out of it and took off after her.
Mark was doing his rounds and walked up to the nurses' station to give instructions to the nurse for two of his patients when Steve arrived. There was a large, dark-skinned man he didn't recognize behind his son. "Hi, Steve." Mark greeted.
"Hey," Steve nodded. "Dad, this Ted Garrett from the DC Bureau of Investigation. He's Jack and the team's task force supervisor." Mark raised his eyebrows.
"Mr. Garrett," Mark said nervously. "Good to meet you." He offered his hand and surprisingly, the intimidating guy took it.
"Garrett, this is my father, Dr. Mark Sloan, chief of internal medicine here at Community General." Steve explained.
"Dr. Sloan." Ted said. "How are my agents?"
"Most of them are holding up pretty well," Mark replied. "Lucy's resting right now, which is best for her."
"And Sue?"
"She's been through a lot, Mr. Garrett." Mark sighed. "But she's gonna be all right."
"Good." Ted grunted. "How is Jack?"
"The same, I'm afraid. But I assure you we're doing everything we can to help get him back on his feet." Mark said quickly.
"So Lt. Sloan told me." Ted said quietly.
"Why don't you come with me?" Mark suggested, heading for the lounge. "I know of some people who will be happy to see you."
"Sounds good." Ted nodded.
"So, Steve? What's the status on Jeffrey White?" Mark asked curiously.
"We extracted a full confession out of him." Steve muttered. "We had no trouble prying it out. He was more than happy to declare his dirty work to us."
"Really?" Mark raised his eyebrows.
"Yeah." Steve groaned. "He was mad at us, because we caught him just before his biggest motion of revenge!"
"What about his partner?"
"Oh, yeah. No remorse." Steve nodded.
"Is that why you're here, Mr. Garrett?" Mark asked. "To extradite Jeffrey White?"
"Partly, yes." Ted replied. "We're transporting him back to DC then on to Detroit, his hometown and the city where he first started killing."
"I see."
"But I was also concerned about my agents after I was informed of the situation."
"Dr. Travis to ICU! Dr. Travis to ICU, stat!" The intercom blurted overhead. Mark halted and Steve eyed him uneasily. Surely it was another patient, a different patient! It had to be. It couldn't be Jack.
"Excuse me!" Mark exclaimed wide-eyed and rushed toward ICU. Ted noticed Steve's worried face.
"Is it..." He began to ask.
"There are lots of patients in ICU." Steve said quickly. Yet, he couldn't shake off a worried feeling that it was Jack who was in trouble. "Uh, will you excuse me for a minute? The lounge is right over there." And before Ted could answer, Steve darted for the ICU.
Several nurses rushed into Jack's room and pulled Levi off the bed. "Page Dr. Travis!" One of them shouted. Sue stood in the background against the doorway wall, clasping her hands together and breathing heavily to calm herself. The nurses were all gathered around Jack's bed, and they lowered it till he was flat on his back. Sue bit her lip hard as tears spilled into it.
"Please, please, God..." She tried to pray. "Don't let him die! Please don't take him yet!" Jessie burst into the room and was instantly at the bed.
"What have you got?" Jessie asked. Susan burst in after him.
"Pulse is dropping, BP is..." One of the nurses answered.
"He's crashing!" Another yelled. Susan placed her fingers on Jack's neck.
"No pulse. He's in defib!" She exclaimed as the heart monitor showed flat-line. Another nurse handed Jessie the defibrillator paddles as another bared Jack's chest. Sue gulped hard and staggered out into the hall, wandering around with a petrified look on her face.
"200 jewels." Jessie said calmly but firmly. "Clear?"
"Clear." Susan said, covering Jack's face with an ambu bag. Jessie pumped the paddles and shocked Jack. The monitor still showed flat-line.
"Again. 300." Jessie ordered.
Bobby bumped into Sue and grabbed her arms. "Sue, what..." He tried to speak but Sue just gazed up at him fearfully. He rushed into Jack's room.
"Clear?" Jessie asked.
"Clear!" One of the nurses answered. Jessie pumped the paddles again and shocked Jack.
"He's back." Susan said. Bobby just stood in the doorway, watching in shock.
Mark raced passed Sue as he hurried to Jack's room, but Steve slowed down when he saw her. She was shivering and her eyes were squeezed shut. "Hey," Steve touched her shoulder, but Sue didn't open her eyes. He gripped her shoulders and turned her toward him. She opened her eyes and looked up at him helplessly. "Hey, what's going on?"
"J...Jack. He...he's..." Sue stumbled over her words. Steve glanced toward Jack's room and sighed heavily then looked back at Sue. "I don't know what to do." She whimpered. "He was fine, and...and then..." She tried futilely to hold down a sob. Steve stared at her sympathetically and let her lean her head on his shoulder. He felt a little awkward at first but then he just patted her arms. Then, realizing what she'd just done, she suddenly pulled back and tried wiping her eyes. "Oh, I'm sorry...I..." She blubbered. "Sorry, I don't know what..."
"Don't worry about it." Steve patted her shoulder, but she didn't look at him so she didn't read his lips.
"Jessie?" Mark had panted when he'd gotten into the room. He noticed that the nurses were stabilizing Jack again.
"He went into cardiac arrest, Mark." Jessie stated, also panting. "But we got him back. His pulse is back to normal, BP is back up, and heart rate is regular." Mark sighed heavily in half relief and touched his young friend's shoulder.
"Good work, Jess." Mark still panted.
"Sure." Jessie smiled. Once Jack was stabilized, the nurses all shuffled out, but Mark and Jessie lingered. Then they noticed Bobby still standing in the room.
"W-what just happened?" Bobby stammered. Jessie came over to him.
"Why don't you sit down?" He offered.
"No thanks." Bobby shook his head, but he did come over to the bed. "Will he be all right, Mark?"
"I hope so, Bobby." Mark said fervently. "But that close call we just had isn't good for his heart condition right now."
"Good news is, his fever seems to have disappeared!" Jessie announced, trying to be cheerful.
"Yes! That's one good thing." Mark agreed as they all stared at the invalid. Mark gazed more intently at him to confirm or contradict if he'd been seeing things. It had been very subtle, maybe he'd just imagined it out of wishful thinking. But then, no! There it was! Jack was stirring! "Jess? Bobby!" Mark whispered loudly. They both followed his gaze and their jaws dropped. Jack was trying to stretch, but he grunted as the pain in his body prevented him.
"Uugghhh..." Jack groaned quietly.
"It's good to have you back with us, Jack!" Mark stated cheerfully. Jack sighed heavily and very slowly opened his eyes. At first, his vision was blurry and he had to squint hard to focus, but gradually, he could make out three figures standing over him. He slowly recognized each one of them: Dr. Sloan, the kind, jolly old doctor; Jessie Travis, the young, sometimes overzealous, ER doctor; and, his best friend in the whole world charming, faithful, shoot straight, but kind-hearted Bobby!
"W...w..." Jack tried to speak. "W-what are you all staring at?" He tried to joke, but his voice sounded really weak. "D-do I look that bad?" The three men laughed together.
"Naw. We're just glad to see ya, mate." Bobby smiled that winning grin of his, though his eyes were growing misty. Jack was back! He was really alive, speaking to him. Mark briefly walked out. He saw Steve coming toward him.
"Dad..." Steve began.
"Come in, Steve." Mark pulled him inside along with him. Steve's eyes widened when he came to the bed and saw Jack, alert and conscious. His shoulders sagged in relief.
"So, I guess you decided you weren't gonna let it lick you, huh?" Steve smiled at him. Jack grinned and shrugged.
"Mph." He grunted with a smile. "I guess not. Not with...not with a wild criminal to deliver back...back to the big boys."
"Good to see you haven't lost your voice." Jessie grinned.
"Heh, yeah." Jack responded in a raspy voice.
"So, how do you feel?" Mark asked.
"Ugh," Jack rolled his eyes. "Like someone tried to take me apart and put me back together, and failed miserably." The other guys all laughed.
"That about sums it up." Bobby remarked.
"W-where's Sue?" Jack asked, his eyes darting around the room.
"I'll get her." Bobby and Steve said at the same time, then glanced at each other with rolled eyes. "She's in the waiting room outside." Steve said. Bobby smiled.
"Thanks. Be right back, Jack. And don't you go anywhere!" He pointed directly at his best friend, half-joking and smiling but inwardly dead serious. Bobby couldn't wait to see the happy look on Sue's face once she saw Jack.
"Hey, I couldn't even if I wanted to." Jack grinned raising his head up, still in a quiet voice. "Don't be long." Jessie smiled then put his stethoscope in his ears to begin checking Jack over. Steve just stood there watching and smiling at Mark who returned the much relieved, very happy facial expression. It looked like Jack was going to pull through!
Bobby didn't find Sue in the waiting room as Steve had said and asked around at the nurses' stations as he searched for her. He checked back in her hospital room where Lucy was still dozing, but no sign of Sue or Levi. "Where could that girl have gotten to?" He asked himself. He was about to pass Delores on the way to the Main Entrance. "Hey, have you seen Sue?" He asked hopefully.
"Sorry, young man. But I haven't." Delores shook her head.
"Okay, thanks." Bobby sighed. "Oh, by the way, Jack's awake!"
"Well, praise be!" Delores smiled widely. "I'm happy for ya, sonny. This is gonna make Sue very happy."
"Yeah." Bobby agreed then continued his search. He had no idea where to look for his said friend, and he couldn't understand why, but something kept pressing him to go up to the hospital roof. "I don't think she'd go all the way up there, with her condition." He protested, but it was worth a try. He obeyed his prompt and as he opened the door to the outside, sure enough, there was Sue standing with her back to him, her arms folded and the wind blowing her long blonde hair. Levi was sitting next to her. Bobby heard sniffling and he knew Sue was crying. He slowly walked toward her. Levi touched her hospital gown with his paw and she looked down at him then she saw Bobby standing there. He smiled warmly and leaned against the railing.
Sue winced as the tears washed over her face with the wind caressing it. "I can't believe it." She finally spoke. "I...I just can't believe..."
"Sue," Bobby cut her off and came close. "Jack's alive. And he's awake now. He wants to see you."
"W...w-what?" Sue stared at him in disbelief. She couldn't have read his lips correctly. "What did you say?"
"Jack's all right, Sue. And I believe he'd like to see you." Bobby said. "Now, I'm not sure what kind of manners they taught you back in Ohio, but where I come from, when someone in a sickbed asks for your company, it's considered great rudeness not to honor their request. Ha, ha." He joked with that winning, cheesy smile that everyone couldn't resist. Sue smiled widely through her tears but cried even harder now. She stepped closer to Bobby, reaching for him and the two shared a strong, friendly hug. Sue sobbed in joy and exhaustion, and Bobby too shed a few tears. Jack was alive, and it meant more to the two friends than could ever be put into words! Levi stood on his hind legs and joined the embrace. Sue and Bobby both laughed as they smiled at their furry pal. "Come on" Bobby tilted his head toward the door, his arm still around Sue. She nodded and they walked together back down to the ICU.
"You're still not gonna be barging through a front door on any raid assignments any time soon." Jessie warned Jack. "But if you're a good boy, we should have you back on your feet sooner rather than later."
"Great," Jack muttered in mock aggravation. "Now I'm gonna be riding a bed instead of a desk while Garrett decides whether or not to suspend me for setting myself up as an unauthorized target."
"You're starting to sound as encouraging as Myles." Steve teased. Jack cringed.
"Oh, please, don't be cruel! I'm a sick man." He chuckled. "Sorry. To be honest..." he had to slow down in speech to catch his breath. "A little sack time doesn't sound so bad right now. I feel like a mess."
"Well, just hold onto to that feeling as long as you can, son." Mark smirked, patting Jack's shoulder. "If it keeps you in line, then hopefully we won't be stuck with another hard-headed patient...for once." His eyes shifted to his son. Steve cleared his throat.
"Don't worry. I can't turn rebellious right now even if I tried." Jack said. "I simply...don't have the energy." He took a few deep breaths, trying to chase away the shortness in his breathing.
"Well, I think I'll go let your other friends know that you're awake and cocky." Steve said. "They'll be glad to hear it. They've been pretty worried about you."
"I'll go with you, Steve." Jessie said. "Now, you stay in that bed!" He eyed Jack firmly.
"Scout's honor." Jack smirked with his eyes closed and holding up his fingers.
"I'll see ya later, tough guy." Steve smiled at Jack. Jack nodded.
"You know, Jack, we almost lost you!" Mark told him seriously.
"How come...how come I already knew that?" Jack sleepily looked up at the kind, elderly doctor.
"I guess you're just that kind of person, very perceptive." Mark shrugged. "I...oh, I think someone's here to see you!" Jack glanced toward the doorway as Levi happily trotted in and raised his front paws on the bed. He cheerily panted and nudged Jack's arm. Jack smiled and pet his faithful dog friend.
"Hey, buddy. Where ya been?" Jack asked. Then there she was. Sue stepped inside with Bobby behind her. Jack suddenly felt very warm inside his body. He had an overwhelming feeling of inexpressible joy as he looked at her. Her bruises were healing, and she still had the bandage wrapped around her forehead, but her eyes were like he always remembered when he thought of her at night in his apartment, and her smile? It was like he was seeing it for the first time! "H-hey." He stammered, wishing and wanting badly to say something more intelligent, something more meaningful.
"Hi." Sue smiled and came to the bed. "It's good to see you back." She said.
"Good to be back." Jack grinned his dazzling smile, the one they'd all, the one she'd missed so much and had wondered if they'd ever see again.
"Well, we'd better let you rest." Mark spoke up, enjoying the exchange between the two young people he admired immensely, but knowing they desired some privacy. "You've been through a lot, and need some relaxation."
"I think I'm gonna get plenty of relaxation." Jack answered slowly, not taking his eyes off of Sue.
"Well, Bobby, why don't I take you to get some breakfast? I don't think you're gonna be taking another nap any time soon." Mark chuckled.
"Well, now that you mention it," Bobby agreed, sensing the motive behind it, "I am pretty famished. You by any chance serve BBQ Bob's at the cafeteria here?" He asked as they quietly shuffled out. He winked back at Jack who grinned in gratefulness.
"Ah," Mark scrunched up his nose, putting his arm around Bobby, "sorry. I'm afraid we don't. But if you suggest it to Jessie, I'm sure he'll start dreaming up a big franchise..." Mark glanced back at Sue who smiled warmly and signed thank you. But it wasn't needed. Her grateful face was thanks enough to Mark.
Then, she and Jack were alone! Uh, save Levi, that is. They two FBI agents just stared at each other, like old times when their eye contact seemed to be able to read each other's thoughts. Sue, for once without hesitation or feeling awkward, reached down and tenderly gripped Jack's hand. He strongly returned the clasp. The two just gazed at each other deeply and smiled. They didn't speak, there was no need for words. Jack was alive, Sue was alive, and they were together! Sue had so much she wanted to say, that she'd already said but the way Jack stared up at her and formed a smile, she didn't have to, it was as if...Jack knew. Levi just watched the two of them, and panted with a Golden 'smile'.
I'm planning for the next chapter to be extra long, so please bear with me as I try to get it ready for you guys! And what kind of bargain did Jack make with Delores, that he doesn't know he made? What could that possibly be?
And, if you've watched the pilot episode of Sue Thomas FBEye and the Newlywed Game episode, you'll notice that with the timing I put in here from both episodes, that in here when Sue mentions which moment she fell in love with Jack, it was at 'third sight'! Ha, ha. Did anyone pick up on that? Because in the pilot episode, the day he introduced her to the team was the third time it shows them seeing each other. If I ever write any regular Sue Thomas FBEye fanfics, I plan to change that a little.
