"Abby, what are you doing here? Do you know what time it is?" Carter's sleepy voice asked the woman that was now in his arms.
"I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I'm sorry." Abby shook her head and said over and over again, still crying.
"Shhh...it's okay, I'm not upset. What's the matter? Did something happen with Luka? Come inside."
Carter, still not sure what to make of the entire ordeal, sat Abby gently on the sofa in his living room.
"Do you want something to drink? Coffee or tea or something?" Carter asked starting to get up to go to the kitchen. He never got that far, however, because right as he went to stand up, Abby grabbed his hand.
"Please don't leave me." Abby pleaded.
"Shh...I won't leave you. Here, lay down, you're exhausted." Carter said, moving Abby horizontally on the sofa.
"Thank you." Abby quietly murmured, as she was practically asleep. "I love you Carter." And with that she left a shocked Carter staring at the now sleeping figure on his sofa.
