"We're loosing him!" One nurse shouted.
"No!" Sally cried as she watched the love of her life slip into death's hands. "LIGHTNING! You can't die! If you go I go. Please. Oh Chrysler! Not yet! I can't live without him." Sally cried. Slowly, as if her prayers were heard, the machines started to quiet down until coming to a complete stop. Sally peered through the window to see what was happening.
"You gave us quite a scare there boy." One nurse said as she rolled towards the door to talk to Sally. The nurse opened the door and bumped right into Sally.
"Is he…"
"We've got him back." Was all the nurse could get out before Sally rushed to his side.
"I love you. She cried. "Don't ever scare me like that again!"

Doc quickly rolled over when he saw the attending physician when he saw him approaching.
"Mr. McQueen overheated and his fluids dropped under level causing him to stall. We got him back. But it could happen again. We will closely monitor his fluids but again until he is conscious we can't say too much. We are moving him to the Intensive Care Unit for the night and possibly the next few days. The only visitors he will be allowed are his immediate family." The doctor said.
"Thank you." Doc said rolling back to the others to relay the message.

Again Sally had fallen asleep by Lightning's side only to be awoken by another disturbance in the silence.
"S…S….Sally?" Lightning stuttered. Sally's eyes shot open. "What…happened?"
"You wrecked." Sally said after regaining her breath. Fresh tears rolled down her cheeks. "I love you."
"I love you. What's wrong?" He asked not knowing about the previous events.
"I almost lost you. You almost…died." She cried. "I don't know what I would do without you. Promise me you'll never leave me like that. Promise me you'll always be here. That you'll never leave." She pleaded.
"I promise." He said nudging her bumper. "I promise." Lightning kissed Sally's fender lightly as she pressed herself against him.
"You should probably rest." She said. "It might make you feel better."
"Me? I need sleep?" He asked. "You look exhausted." He said pressing against her lovingly.
"I knew something was wrong. I knew something was going to happen." She whispered.
"It's alright. I'm alright." He said.
"No it's not alright. You're not all right. I could have lost you. Hell I almost did lose you. That is not alright in my book." She started crying harder.
"But I'm here. I didn't die. I couldn't die and leave you behind. I love you too much to leave you. I want to marry you and have little cars with you." He said sincerely.
"What?" Sally said suddenly getting very quiet. "What did you say?"
"Um…I said I want to marry you and have children with you." He repeated.
"Well that's one hell of a way to propose." She said trying to lighten the mood.
"Believe me. When I propose, it will be one hell of a proposal." He promised nudging her bumper.
"I love you." She stated nudging him back.
"I love you." He said. Sally pressed herself against him. The two lightly kissed. They sat in comfortable silence enjoying the feel of each other and their dreams of the future.
A/N: Now did ya'll really think I was going to kill him? Nychick are you ok? Are you happy that Lightning didn't die? I am. xForeignxConceptsx thanks I try to make the fic seem as realistic as it can get. Seeing as how it's a fictional story about talking cars in a fictional town you can see how tricky it can be. But I watch a lot of ER so I tried to do what they do to the people on the show.
Nychick, xForeignxConceptsx thanks for the reviews. Much love!
Oh and I know nothing about real cars so if overheating and low fluids can't happen at the same time or stall your car um…just go with it. I mean what was I supposed to have happen he had a heart attack with no heart? It's all-good. Just roll with it.
