Five minutes later, an ambulance arrived. Paramedics rushed out of the back of the ambulance and over to the police car where a bloodied Megan was laying, her back facing up.

Colby, who was holding Megan's hand, was pushed back from her body by the stretcher that was placed right next to the car. "Is she gonna be okay?"

"We're not sure." One of the paramedics replied. "What happened?"

"The house exploded, and the impact sent her crashing onto the car." Don said.

The paramedic examined Megan's back carefully. "Alright, we need to get her to the hospital fast."

He placed her in the ambulance and stepped in, along with the other paramedics. Colby was about to come in with them, but the paramedic stopped him. "Excuse me sir, but only family can come in. Are you family?"

Colby frowned, shook his head and took a couple steps back from the ambulance. "I'm going to head to the hospital."

Don noticed that he felt guilty. "Colby, it's not your fault."

"I should have listened to her." Colby said sadly. "We should have let someone else turn it off, and I didn't listen to her when she was trying to get my attention. If I did, she wouldn't be hurt... I was the lucky one, because she risked her life to save mine."

"We'll all go with you." David offered.

When they arrived at the hospital, they rushed inside and accidentally ran in without checking in, causing a security officer to stop them. "Woah, you guys need to sign in."

"No we don't... we're here to see Megan Reeves, she just got admitted. FBI." Colby explained impatiently while holding up his FBI badge.

The security guard stepped aside, knowing better than to get FBI agents angry. "Two floors up, room 3."

Colby smiled. "Thanks."

They ran to the nearest elevator and pushed button three. When they exited the elevator, they sprinted to room three. As they were about to enter the room, a doctor blocked them from going any further. "Are you the family of Megan Reeves?"

David shrugged in response. "You could say that."

The doctor nodded. "I'm Dr. Stevens, and... well, she's a very lucky woman. With the injuries she sustained from the incident, its a wonder that she's even alive."

Colby looked at Megan's lifeless body inside, and then back at Dr. Stevens. "Wh-what do you mean? Is she gonna be okay? What's wrong?"

Dr. Stevens held his hand up to try and calm him. "All I'm saying is that she's had alot of injuries. From the impact with the car, she sustained five broken ribs, and three cracked ribs, which actually pierced one of her lungs... that's why we have her on a venilator."

"How long will she be on it?" Don asked.

"For at least two days." Dr. Stevens answered. "She also has mild burns on her left arm... they're second degree burns, which will heal in about 2 weeks or so. She'll need to wear bandages over them until the wounds heal completely."

David turned around and looked at Megan, and noticed that the side of her forehead had a bandage on it. "What happened to her head?"

Dr. Stevens cleared his throat. "She scratched her head on the windshield, which gave her a mild concussion. We thought that she would need lacerations on the cut, but we gave her stitches instead... twenty of them."

He paused, examining their faces, before continuing explaining. "Ms. Reeves has many cuts and bruises, but the cuts weren't deep enough to require stitches."

"When will she be able to go home?" Colby asked him.

Dr. Stevens sighed. "Well, we want to keep her under observation for a while. She'll probably be out in about two weeks."

Colby walked inside and over to Megan's bed, and noticed that her hand began to twitch. Seconds later, her whole body began to convulse violently, and all of the monitors began beeping.

Dr. Stevens opened the door and yelled, "We need some help in here!" Seconds later, doctors ran into the room. "She's seizing!"

Don and Colby were outside in the waiting room. Don looked over at Colby, who looked like he was about to cry, and Don put a comforting hand on his shoulder. "This isn't your fault, Colby... you have to know that."

Colby didn't say anything, and Don sighed.

David walked back over to them, since he was calling Amita and Charlie to inform them about Megan's condition. Don waited, along with David and Colby, for the current news on Megan.

Dr. Stevens walked into the waiting room, and the three agents immediately stood up. "Ms. Reeves suffered from a seizure. Seizures are usually caused from brain damage, but in this case, it was caused from her head injuries."

By the look on the doctor's face, David could tell that he wasn't telling them everything. "What else?"

"Megan went into cardiac arrest." Dr. Stevens said. "We were able to stabilize her, but..."

"But what?" Colby asked, getting impatient.

"I'm afraid that your friend is in a coma... and we're not sure if she'll ever wake up again." Dr. Stevens explained.

He walked away, leaving Don, David and Colby shocked.

David was the first one to speak. "A... a coma?"

Colby, still in shock, slowly sat down in a chair, with Don and David following suit. Colby sighed, and placed his head in his hands, while Don placed a hand on Colby's shoulder. "You wanna go in first?"

Colby stepped into Megan's hospital room, and quietly closed the door. Walking over to her bed, he sat down in the chair, grasping her lifeless hand in his. A minute of silence passed, when Colby whispered, "I'm so sorry Megan... I'm so sorry."

Even though she had machines hooked up to her from every angle, with bruises and cuts on her face, Colby thought that she looked peaceful. And for one of the first times in Colby's life, he cried.

He cried because he never knew if the one woman that he ever loved would wake up from her deep sleep. Colby never thought that love was real. He just thought that it was some sort of fairytale that always had happy endings. He hated fairytales, because he knew that they weren't true.

Until Megan came along.

Colby never really did know what love felt like. But the first time that he saw Megan, he felt a warm sensation in his heart. Something that was good and pure, and that wanted to make Colby melt, like warm chocolate. Unfortunately, Colby never really knew how to act on his feelings, especially since he had never felt that way before. So he let Megan go, and she ended up with Larry.

You could say that Colby was disappointed, but he was also happy for Megan that she had found someone. But when they had finally broken up, Colby was more than thrilled. Now it was his big chance.

But with her in a coma, Colby knew that there was a chance she may never wake up again.

She may never be able to wake up to hear the three words that Colby had been waiting to say to her for all his life.

I love you.
