For reviewing! There was only two reviews but I am updating really quick so yeah! But I would like at least four reviews before I put up the last chapter! Muhahaha, I am pretty evil aren't I?
"Ok Jo, we are going to put you in this chamber and pump in neutralizing gas which when inhaled will cure you of this disease!" Zane said pulling Jo along behind him to his lab.
"Calm down," Jo replied coughing.
"Oh, I'm sorry, Jo-Jo," Zane said slowing down looking over Jo who was struggling to breathe. "Here," he continued picking her up to carry her the rest of the way.
"Man, I feel like a princess with everyone watching over me like this," Jo replied smiling happily up at him. "I'm going to be cured!" she yelled suddenly acting a bit childish.
Zane smirked down at her again and picked up his pace practically running the rest of the way there.
"Jo!" Allison cried looking up to see Jo being carried in.
"She's fine just a bit tired," Zane replied panting.
"Looks like she's not the only one," Sean said under his breathe smirking.
"Sean stop that!" Sam cried hearing what he said. "Ok come here Jo let me get you set up," Sam continued guiding Jo over to the chamber. Sam opened the door and ushered Jo in quickly helping her the chair in the center. Zane followed them in and walked over to Jo who looked really tired.
"Jo are you ok?" Zane asked clearly concerned.
"Yeah I'm fine…" Jo replied having a coughing fit.
Zane looked up to Sam and gestured to her to give him and Jo a second. "Jo once this is all over…do you want to go out to eat?"
"Aren't you still dating Zoë?"
"For now, but…"
"Zane, let's talk about this after I'm cured. Ok?" Jo said interrupting Zane.
"Yeah ok… but I promise I will never give up on you." Zane said nodding.
Jo stayed silent and Zane left the chamber quickly.
The lights stopped blinking and Zane rushed into the chamber, "Are you ok, Jo?"
"Yeah I think," Jo said sitting up quickly.
"I'm going to need some blood to test," Allison said.
"I'll help," offered Zane.
Jo looked up at him and shook her head, "No, you get back to work on the DED device."
"I want to make sure you're ok," Zane replied smiling.
"You can come up and check on me later. I'll be in my office." Jo said smiling warmly.
Zane leaned down to whisper in her ear, "I promise to come and check on you later and to never leave you again."
Jo rubbed her temples and groaned. How could this week get any worse? First I get a virus that almost kills me and then Zane confesses his feelings twice. Once it was a hallucination and the second time it was the actual thing and the actual thing hates me again and won't even talk to me. Now Zane possibly messed up the DED device and now its missing. And the hallucination is still hanging around…maybe I'll just confess that I romanticized our relationship…I don't know. How could this week get any worse. Jo turned back around to her desk and startled by the sight of Zane. Hallucination Zane…great…
"Will you stop doing that!" Jo exclaimed.
"Stop doing what?" Zane asked as Jo gave out an exasperated sigh.
"I just need to talk to you about something," Zane continued.
"Oh what is it now? You want to tell me how nice my ass looks when I'm holding a gun?" Jo continued just wanting the hallucination to leave her alone.
"Well you do have a nice ass…" Zane said slightly confused.
Jo stood up suddenly confusing Zane even more, "You wan to have it out?" Jo asked before continuing, "Ok the truth is I have been romanticizing our relationship this entire time. And you know there was a reason I hesitated and now I know what it is."
Zane startled by her outburst asked shaking his head, "What are you talking about?"
Jo expression feel as she said, "We don't fit. So I'm over it. I'm over us." Jo started taking off her necklace as she said, "If you want to hang out with…Zoë go ahead," she finished shrugging.
Jo tossed the ring at Zane as she said, "I'm done."
Zane raised the ring to eye level and his brows furrowed in concentration as he asked, "What are you doing with my grandmother's ring, Jo?" Jo looked stunned and suddenly Carter walked in alleviating some of the tension as Zane asked, "What's going on?"
Carter walked over to Zane and said, "Hey, Jo, sorry for interrupting. Um, Zane sorry but I have to take you in for questioning."
"For what?" asked Zane even more confused.
"Potential collusion and the left of the DED device. I'm sorry, Jo, you done?" Carter said looking back and forth between Zane and Jo.
Zane started stuttering before saying, "Ok you have to look at this?" throwing something down on Jo's desk. Zane and Carter continued to talk but Jo was in shock and sat down slowly at her desk. That was the actual Zane what have I done?
"How come that didn't feel like a first kiss?" Zane asked pulling Jo closer.
Suddenly Zoë ran in and hugged Zane. Jo missed the exchange between the two while she tried to calm her pounding heart. Jo turned and ran out of the sheriff's office. Zane didn't keep his promise. Why did we ever even come to this time line…? Without Sam and Sean I wouldn't be able to live… Jo was suddenly jerked out her thoughts when she felt someone grab her wrist from behind. She spun around and saw Zane standing there slightly out of breathe.
"What?" Jo spat.
Zane looked startled by her response but responded gently saying, "I wanted to walk you home."
"Ok," Jo mumbled slightly ashamed.
"Zoë and I decided to just be friends," Zane mumbled not sure how Jo was going to take this new.
Jo looked over at him surprised and Zane took this moment to pull Jo closer.
"I love you, Jo," whispered Zane.
"I love you too," Jo replied before she was cut off with a passionate kiss.
