A/N- Thanks for your dedicated Reviews, I love to hear what you guys think and want to happen!
Did you not love the new episode on Monday?! (I thought it was amazing!)
On a side note... This chapter is kind of sad (as some of the others have been) but things will get better for Kris, I promise ;)
She sat in the grass, slowly tracing her fingers over the engraved words trying to think of what to say. Words flowed through her mind but nothing sounded adequate. How could she explain everything that had been going on, everything that she was feeling?
"You love me." She looked at him smiling.
He couldn't help but smile back at her "yeah, I do."
She leaned over and kissed him, and neither of them could keep a smile off their face.
Pulling away she whispered "I love you too."
"I guess I need to explain why I haven't come to visit you huh? I guess that's probably where I should start." Kris laughed at how foolish she sounded and how strange it felt to be talking to his grave but she needed to get it out. "I know this may not make sense but just stick with me" she mumbled.
"What are you doing here?" she questioned him.
"Davis party of four. I brought lunch. Burgers for me and you, carrots for Flame and Wildfire. It's a family meal." He replied.
She couldn't help but smile at him "so were a family now?"
"It's so hard for me to believe you're gone. I keep waiting for the door to open and for you to walk back into my life. I just feel like there is this huge part of me, of my life that's missing. You completed me and filled me with a wholeness I had never known existed. You were my family, my love."
She sat in the hospital looking at her precious baby boy. She was never good at picking out names; it had taken her forever to decide on Flame's name.
The baby book she had picked up at the bookstore was beside her. She temporarily debated on naming him after his father, but she knew that he would have hated the child not having their own identity.
Flipping through the book she came across the name Jason, and she knew instantly that was what she would name him. Jason Kenneth Davis, her little handsome healer.
She could feel her hands shaking as she continued to run her fingers over each individual engraved word. She wondered why it had been so hard for her to come here before now, why she had put it off for so long. As she sat and talked it seemed natural, almost as if she were actually talking to Junior.
"You gave me Jason, my little healer. He looks so much like you that sometimes it hurts to look at him and sometimes I can't stop looking at him. I will let him know who his daddy is though, that's a promise."
Her hands seemed to tangle around him, as they pressed their foreheads against each other never breaking eye contact. As whispers of "I love you" and "Happy anniversary" tumbled off their lips, together they fell.
As he loosened his hold and she slid down his body, they kissed again. Kris grabbed his hand and slowly led him down the hall to the bedroom. Smiling as she looked back at him she couldn't help but notice that for the first time in a while she felt like she was home.
She could feel herself smiling "our little escapade in the hallway," she felt herself laughing "gave me one of the greatest gifts of my life Junior, I will never forget that."
"Kris, Junior was being blackmailed."
"What could someone possibly blackmail Junior with?"
He looked at her then, and she noticed that his eyes seemed to dim.
"You Kris, they were threatening you."
"I know you were trying to protect me, Junior. But, honestly, you should have told me what was going on. You should have told me where you were actually going. We could have dealt with it together, as a team. I wasn't as fragile as you thought I was, I could have helped, somehow."
Tears streamed down her face and she felt an overwhelming sense that everything would be ok. "Thank You, for everything." she whispered.
As she walked back towards her car she looked back at the grave one last time. Then and there she promised herself and Junior that she would come back and visit again. She slowly climbed into her car and wiped the dry tears off of her face. She looked back one last time and smiled.
As she shifted her car into drive, she thought about everything that she had been through in the past few days. She knew that there were still many things to get through; she still had to talk to Dani and find out who had been blackmailing Junior and more importantly why. She pictured the image of the small boy in her dream, and smiled. She could get through this. With her friends by her side, she would be OK.
So I realized I never told you/gave you the meaning of Jason's name or why Kris picked it.
Jason means Healer, Kenneth means beautiful.
Re-reading, I noticed it sounds like its the end, but it's not!
