„As a picture with words left unspoken are you wondering who you are".
SAN DIEGO HOSPITAL
Someone is calling my name. It's all hazy and I can't seem to find my
way out. I hear my name again, then low voices. A slow, steady beeping forces me further awake. Finally, I can open my eyes.
Someone is here but I can´t see his face really good.
„Harm" I tried, I had to but I don´t think it´s him, or is it. Oh don´t let it be him.
„Not quite" he laughs and now I know it´s not Harm, it´s Clayton Webb.
I finally realize that I'm in the hospital. The annoying beeping is the sound of my own pulse.
„Webb"
„Yeah, I´m happy you didn´t lost your memory. Do you remember what happened?" Ugh, I try searching through my memory but I can´t find anything relevant.
„Would you do me a favor and refresh my memory?" I try to smile but it really hurts. They had to hit me a few times in the face. I think I won´t want to look in the mirror for a while. I just hope it´s not permanent.
Webb sits down in the chair beside my table. I look at his clothes
and realize that he slept in the hospital. God how long I have been here?
"You were attacked. The men who were after you were about to drive away with you in the backseat when my agents arrived. They had knocked you unconscious and dragged you out to the car, attempting to kidnap you, probably rape you, before they killed you," he answers matter-of-factly.
"Jasmine!" I exclaim suddenly. I try to sit up, but Clay pushes me
back.
"She's fine, Mac, just fine. She's with Carol and a couple of our agents. As soon as we realized you took off, I sent them over to her house."
I close my eyes and breathe in relief, thank god I didn´t drag her with me. I don´t want to even think about what would they do to her.
„And what about me?"
„Well, you have a mild concussion, some scratches and bruises but other than that you´re okay" he replies.
"That's not what I meant," I return, looking straight into his eyes.
"It's all over."
"Are you sure?" He takes my hand and looks at me.
"Trust me, Mac. It's over. You won't have to worry about anything anymore."
I study his eyes and nod, believing him. "So what happens now?"
Webb shrugs. "That's up to you. You can go back to being Elizabeth
Connor, or you can go back to your old life. You can be Sarah
MacKenzie again. It's your choice." He turns to go.
"Webb?"
Clay turns. "He knows nothing. I won't say a word. That, too, is your
choice."
I continue to stare at the door long after it swings shut behind him.
I have a tough decision to make. I don't know if I can go back. I
don't know if I can live with myself if I decide not to go back. I want
to see him, to return to JAG, but I'm afraid of what I'll find if I
do. I close my eyes and choose not to think about it yet. I'll take
some time. Clear my head. Yes, that's what I'll do. Take some time to clear my head.
