The music blared in her ears, the refuge she sought in the lab no more comforting then the hours spent at home tossing and turning. She sat against her lab fridge, staring ahead blankly. Everyone else had gone home long ago. She rested her head against the cool surface, tears rolling down her face. She lifted the remote and pressed the off button, for once in her life she was tired of the music. A few moments passed as she closed her eyes. Then "I was enjoying that" her brain told her that she could not have possibly heard those words, yet her ears shouted that she had. She opened her eyes and froze in amazement, a single word dropping from her lips in a whisper "Kate?" she nodded. Abby didn't move, convinced that her mind was playing tricks on her "Abby, it's me, it's really me. Jeez girl, look at you huh? Go and do your make up, fix your hair, don't mope" she felt slightly comforted by this that was defiantly her Kate.
She stood, staring at herself in the mirror, fixing herself up, she could see Kate behind her, smiling widely. Abby said softly still not believing that she was really there "i miss you Kate" "I know Abby, I miss you too, but you know what I'm still here, I never left. I've been watching you, and I have to say, I am so proud of you Abby, I've always been proud of you" tears welled up in her eyes, blurring her view "thank you Kate" "remember Abby, I'm here, I won't leave you , I'll be watching over you, just remember that you're the best friend I've ever had" Abby closed her eyes as Kate reached forward, a slight breeze whispered across her cheek, she opened her eyes to see that Kate was gone, the smell of roses on the air, and the single black rose lying on the table.
