Title- Sheepishly Sleeping

Author- Katelyn. *this is my chappie!*

Disclaimer- I do no, unfortunately, own anyone/thing having to do with ER, not even the yummy Carter. ~*~
Carter inhaled deeply as he listened to Kerry's story. Kerry told of a time when she was a sophomore in high school, she was one of the more quiet girls, not one with the populars of the school. She explained how on the night of her Winter Formal how she was in a terrible accident. She told of how the car her "boyfriend" was driving hit another and the impact crushed her leg. She was also critically injured when the car managed to flip over landing in a nearby ditch. When it was all over, she had been knocked unconscious. During this, her "Boyfriend" was able to free himself and fled the scene of the accident unnoticed.

"When I woke up, the Doctors and Nurses told me not to talk, I had a tracheotomy and as soon as they were sure I was strong enough to breathe on my own that they'd take it out. They proceeded to explain what had happened during the accident. Never once did anyone say anything about Thomas my "date", and when I asked they said that I was the only one injured at the scene. The other car and it's passengers left with only a slight dent in their car, a broken windshield, and some cuts and scrapes."

"That's awful Kerry," Carter said putting a warm arm around her trembling form.
"When I was able to sit up, the Doctors began telling me that I would need physical therapy for my leg. It wasn't until then that I'd even thought of it. They had me on many pain killers so I couldn't feel a thing. When I was told how bad it was, and that I may never be able to walk again I was crushed." Kerry continued wiping some tears away.
"Well you fought the good fight," Carter said.

"I still have this though," Kerry said and held up the crutch. "They originally thought I'd be in a wheelchair. When I started out, I was, what fun," Kerry said sarcastically. "I remember seeing the stares from other girls, watching helplessly as they would gawk, or whisper comments behind my back. Eventually by my senior year I was down to walking with this crutch," Kerry continued.

"When you said you knew I'd save you, what did you mean?" Carter asked.
"Ever since the accident I've been having dreams, the pain is inescapable, you should just leave me.." Kerry said weakly.
"I could never leave you Kerry," John cooed.
"Really, just take the kids; you'll be better off." Kerry continued.
"I'm not gonna go!" John said forcefully.

He wrapped Kerry in a hug and she began to Kerry attach to Carter like leech. John put his warm hands on her face and began to smother her with affection. He began to kiss her on her cheeks, and then continue down to her rosy red lips.
He began to slowly continue downwards until he found a spot along her neck to focus on. Kerry in return began to slowly unbutton John's shirt. When she got to the last button, the shirt slipped off and was lost in the mass of cotton sheets. Kerry grinned mischievously as she licked her lips.
"Is this why you didn't want to leave?" She asked in a purring voice.
"Exactly toots!" John said and began to undo Kerry's blouse,
"The children. we didn't-" Kerry was interrupted by John's stare. She slowly turned her head towards the door and saw two faces staring back at them.
"Hi kids," John said sheepishly. Kerry gave John a nervous glance as he stood up and began to button up.
