CHAPTER 5: SHOCKS & SEEING SARAH...

TIM'S BEDROOM...

ABBY'S P.O.V.

I watched Tim lay down and almost as soon as his head hit the pillow, he closed his eyes. I laid down beside him, just wanting to remind him I wasn't far away.

I don't know if he knew I was there, but I laid on my side and just watched him sleep.

"I love you, Timmy. I was wrong, because I love you and not like a puppy. Everything will be all right." I whispered as I reached out and put my hand on his cheek.

He reached up and put his hand over mine, for a minute I thought he was going to wake up.

'How could I have broken up with him? How could I have broken up with the best man I ever met?

I was so scared of commitment, but with Tim, it was different and that was what had scared me the most. There had been something special between us from the time we met and I had ruined it. He even got a tat on his ass to impress me.'

At the thought, I gave a soft laugh, then he didn't something I didn't expect and I almost said something in surprise. He pulled me closer and just held on to me.

I guess I fell asleep, but woke up instantly a while later...

"Sarah!" Tim called and he was sitting up in the bed.

He then looked around and seemed surprised, even more surprised when he found out I was laying there.

"Its okay, Tim. I brought you home, you fell asleep once you laid down and I didn't want you to feel alone." I told him.

"Sa-Sarah?" Tim asked and I couldn't tell if he had heard anything, I just said or was even awake.

"She's fine, Tim. Do you want to go see her now?" I asked, looking at the clock and realizing it had been three hours since we had left the hospital. "How am I going to make it through this? My parents? Sarah?" Tim asked.

"Tim, I told you earlier. I am here for you and will be not matter what. Everything will be all right." I said.

We got up and soon we had once again reached the hospital.

THE HOSPITAL...

Once telling them who we were there to see, they told us where to find her.

SARAH'S HOSPITAL ROOM...

TIM'S P.O.V.

We walked over to the bed where we were told Sarah was. It was a stranger in the bed; she looked nothing like my sister.

'How could this happen? How could I lose my parents and maybe still lose, Sarah?'

"This can't be happening." I whispered and felt Abby lean against me or maybe I leaned against her.

I squeezed Abby's hand as we approached the bed and she squeezed back.

Abby had not left my side since I found out about my parents and Sarah. Abby had taken me home several hours ago and had stayed with me.

Something happened in my sleep and at first; I thought it was a dream.

'I love you, Timmy. I was wrong, because I love you and not like a puppy. Everything will be all right. I then felt a hand on my cheek and I think I put my hand over Her's.'

I had then been surprised to wake up a couple of hours ago and find Abby had laid down beside me.

I couldn't think of that now, I wanted to tell Abby how much I still loved her and how much I wanted there to be an...Us again. I wanted to tell her before it was too late and something happened.

Something that I wouldn't be able to tell her how I still felt, even after all these years and from the moment, I met her.

That didn't matter right now though. All that mattered right now was, Sarah and hoping she would live.

As I sat down in the chair beside the bed, I noticed Abby was getting ready to leave. I grabbed her hand and pulled her back.

Abby found another chair and sat down beside me, taking my hand in hers I sat holding a silent vigil next to, Sarah.

Hoping that no matter how many days or weeks went by that she would wake up.

"Abs?" I asked after a while.

"What, Timmy?" Abby asked.

"Don't you have to work?" I asked.

"No, Tim, I already talked to Gibbs and said I'm going to stay beside you." Abby told me.

Then for a while longer, we sat there in silence, until I had to know and couldn't wait any longer.

"Abby, there's I have to know." I said.

"What?" Abby asked.

"Di-did you mean what you said?" I asked.

"When?" Abby asked confused.

"I was dreaming and I thought I heard you say something...

'I love you, Timmy. I was wrong, because I love you and not like a puppy. Everything will be all right.'

Then I thought I felt your hand on my cheek." I told her and she looked a little shocked.

"Every word, Timmy. Did you know when I put my hand on your cheek; you took your hand and covered mine." Abby asked.

"I did?" I asked in surprise and Abby nodded.

"Yeah, how..." Abby began.

"Abby, there's something I have to tell you, but I can't do it right now, okay? Not while my sister is here fighting for her life." I said.

"I know, Timmy." Abby told me.

"Will you stay here with me?" I asked.

"For as long as you need me." Abby replied with a smile and I felt a little better, knowing she wouldn't leave me
