"Ah..." Allison shouted. She raced up to the computers next to Henry.
"what's that mean?" Zoe's heart was filled with panic. "Is it bad?"
"No. It means it's working..." He clapped his hands. He pointed to the monitors. "The temperatures are going down slowly."
"Great!" Fargo shouted. Lucas took hold of Zoe and spun her around.
"It worked, it worked." he kept repeating. A slow gasp escaped Jack's lip.
"Was that..." Lucas asked.
"It was..." Fargo called. "I think that they're coming around."
Another gasp. Allison noticed that Tess was no longer shivering. "It's really working."
"Slowly but surely." Henry glanced over at Lucas. "great job guys."
"We all did it." Lucas responded. He never takes full credit for anything. "We saved the day."
"They're still not out of the woods, just yet." Henry said.
"Bumber." Lucas sighed.
"That's because they aren't awake." Henry nodded at Fargo.
"But they will be alright?" Zoe, who now let go of Lucas.
"As far as I know they will be."
Tess' mind: I feel warmth. She wiggled her fingers. I feel skin. Skin? but who's? She tried to coax her eye lids open but they were too heavy. Finally with monumental effort, she was able to open them to mere slits. She could make out a figure of someone but that was about it. I'm in the arms of a man getting my warmth back. A good amount of warmth. I dreamed about falling into the arms of a strong warm lover, could this be him. I have had this dream all my life and now...could this really be the man of my dreams, the one who will love only me. Her body seemed to be responded to his touch, and it took in a deep breath. She felt darkness invade her eyes once again.
Jack's mind: Jack felt the coolness invade his body. That's more like it, that's the cool I was talking about. so refreshing so...so great. But how...his hand started to rub the source of the coolness, a smooth surface. What? it feels like...silk...so smooth and cool... A moan excepted his lips. I...he swallowed. I'm getting turned on. He moved his hand, Am I touching skin? This is got to be my mind playing tricks on me. Nothing feels this smooth. If this is a dream then I don't ever want to wake up.
Tess breathed in deeply then realized that she was not dreaming by actually in a mans' arms. She panic and tried to wiggle out of bed. "Ah..." She squirted out of the giant arms that held her. "I..." she looked down to see that she had been on top of one Sheriff Jack Carter. "What?" She lick her lips at the sight of his naked upper body. She quickly wrapped the blanket around her, like she was exposing herself to him.
Jack stood up out of bed at the same time that Jo and Zane walked into the room.
"Carter," she yelled, "Where are you pants?" Jack standing in only his underwear, looked down.
Zane just shook his head. "Nice, what did we miss." laughing under his breath.
"Where are my pants?" Jack question backing away from them and Tess.
Tess, turning red, turned away from looking at Jack. She eased her way out of the room. Henry, who was already on it, gave Jack his pants and shirt.
"Why don't I have any pants on?" Jack question again, grabbed the clothes quickly putting them on.
He left his shirt just hanging on his shoulders, not buttoning it up. He glanced around the room looking for anyone to answer him. Allison walked up to him and patted him on the shoulder.
"You don't want to know."
The end
