It was the day of her wedding. She heard the bells ringing, and the music played softly as Carter walked her down the aisle. Her future husband stood waiting for her. If only she could see his face. She turned to look at her guests.

"Abby, Abby… Abby!"

Abby falls violently back to earth and opens her eyes to find Neela shaking her.

"What do you want Neela? What time is it?"

"It's 6:30am. Abby, why is Ray sleeping on our couch?" Neela asks.

"Oh that," Abby says, "We watched some movies last night. He fell asleep and wouldn't wake up, so I just left him there. Why are you home already?"

"My parents sent me here to get my green dress. Apparently the red one makes me look like a whore. I'm not allowed to go to the party with them unless I have the dress. Frankly, I'd rather sit here and have you tell me about your night alone with Ray."

Abby laughs. "Don't worry Neela, you didn't miss anything. In fact, I'm pretty sure that Ray is more attracted to Johnny Depp right now than he will ever be to me." Neela gives Abby a look that is somewhere between fear and confusion. Abby laughs again and says, "I'll tell you later, you don't want to be late for that party do you?"

"You're right," Neela replies, "But when I get home tomorrow, you had better tell me everything. I want to know." Abby nods and Neela leaves the room.

"Have fun Neela," Abby shouts. The front door shuts and Abby falls back in bed. Minutes later, Ray strolls into the bedroom.

"Good morning Abby," he says smiling.

Abby sighs, "Good morning Ray." Ray sits on the edge of her bed. "Don't you have anything to do today?" Abby asks.

"Well," Ray says, "I happen to know that you and I both start work in two hours."

"What checking my schedule now so you can stalk me?" Abby asks as she sits up.

"You know what Lockhart, you are a very paranoid woman. First I show up here with a pizza and you think I'm stalking you and now I tell you that you and I work together today and you think I'm after you. Lady you have some issues."

"Sure Ray," Abby says, "I need a shower to wake me up."

"So do I," Ray says, "You know if we take one together, it'll go twice as fast."

"Nice try Ray. Let's just say that I've already tried that and rather than cutting the time in half, it usually doubles it," Abby says.

"Ooh Lockhart, who have you shared a shower with? Wait no, let me guess. Hmm… Susan? Sam? Weaver? Or how about Neela… Actually it would be even better if it was all of them with you and-,"

"Very funny Ray," Abby says, "You can take a shower after I'm done."

Ten minutes later, Abby enters the bedroom wrapped in a towel.

"Well Lockhart, I see we're making the towel outfit a regular thing," Ray says with a whistle.

"Shut up Ray," Abby says rolling her eyes, "You can take a shower now if you'd like." She starts to remove the towel but then realizes that Ray is still standing there watching her. "Will you go take a shower already?" Ray grins at her and scampers out of the room.

Abby is fully dress and pacing back and forth outside the bathroom.

"He has been in the shower for thirty minutes now!" she exclaims, "Fine, you know what Ray? Two can play this game." She marches into the bathroom and begins to brush her hair.

"Abby I knew you'd finally cave in," Ray say, " Shall I make room for you in here?" Abby reaches over and flushes the toilet. "Ah hot!" Ray shrieks as he jumps around in the shower. He pops his head out from behind the curtain. "That was really low."

"I know," Abby replies pulling her hair back to braid it. Ray turns the water off.

"Could you please pass the towel to me?" he asks. Abby picks up the towel and hands it to Ray who rips open the shower curtain and stands in front of her in all his naked glory. "Thanks," he says taking the towel. Abby, who has turned away to avoid looking at anything, simply nods. "You know Abby, I feel so comfortable around you, I mean look I can get naked right in front of you."

"That's okay Ray I don't want to look, I prefer to leave it up to my imagination," Abby says.

"So what you're saying is that you imagine what I look like when I'm naked," Ray says.

"No!" Abby says, "That's not what I meant Ray!"

Ray and Abby manage to find two seats on the El and sit in silence for most of the ride. Finally, Ray leans close to Abby, almost resting on her shoulder. "Admit it," he whispers into her ear, "You liked it." Abby looks him in the eye and raises an eyebrow. Ray smirks at her.

"You are just too cocky Barnett," she says.

As Ray and Abby enter the ER, they are greeted by a full waiting room.

"Hey guys," Susan says as she walks past, "Could you both hurry up, please? We have the full waiting room and two traumas, ETAs 4 minutes and 5 minutes."

Ray and Abby rush to the lounge and emerge minutes later.
