Enjoy!

Alexis sat in the surgical waiting room for only half an hour until she heard the cries of a mother come from behind her. "Hey Alexis—." Sophie came and sat down next to her with tears rolling down her cheeks. "Does anyone know what happened?" She asked Alexis. She shook her head, "Ed killed the guy—But the guy shot Clark on his way down. I just cant believe Clark got shot." She hard tears covering her face as Sophie wrapped her arm around her.

"Should I call your mom?" She asked sweetly, she knew that she and Jules were still friends, just not as tight, but she didn't want Alexis to feel alone. Alexis shook her head, "She shouldn't be out—She's supposed to stay home and rest." Sophie nodded, "Ed told me what happened—I'm really sorry." Alexis nodded and smiled as she wiped a tear from her eye.

---------------------------------------------

"So—How are you?" Jake asked with a smile as he got dressed. Jessica still lied in bed with the covers pulled close to her. She smiled, "Amazing." He chuckled, kissing her gently and making his way to the kitchen to start dinner.

Once she saw him turn the corner and leave the room. She let out a short squeal of excitement, then fell back against the pillows with a huge smile on her face.

-------------------------------------------

"So Boss—Who was this guy." Wordy asked over the radio as the whole team was heading to the hospital—except for Ed who was being investigated.

"The woman was his wife—Apparently she cheated on him with another teacher at the school and he found out, then came to kill her. Simple as that." Greg replied.

As they pulled into the hospital parking lot, everyone climbed out and barreled inside.

"Hey Sophie—Hey Alexis." Greg spoke softly as he, Wordy, Sam, Spike, and Lou came off the elevator. Sam sat down next to Alexis and wrapped his arms around her. "Dad—Why did the guy have to shoot him!?" She cried against his vest. He shook his head and kissed the top of her head, "He's going to be okay Lexi—He will." Sam held her closely and the pulled her close in his lap. "I love Clark, Dad—He has to be okay." Sam smiled and nodded, not that he truly wanted his sixteen year old daughter to think that she was in love, but he didn't say anything as he saw the tears rolling down her cheeks. "He will." He kissed her forehead and held onto her tightly.

"Ed will be here as soon as he can—you know how the investigations go though." Greg said calmly as he placed his hand on Sophie's shoulder. "Why couldn't he shoot the guy in time!?" She asked as Greg shook his head. "The man shot on his way down. That's why Clark got shot in the lower arm, not the chest." Sophie nodded as she couldn't even imagine her son being killed. She cried as Greg pulled her into a hug, "He'll be fine—He was awake the whole time—He never passed out, that's a good sign." Sophie nodded slowly as she wiped her tears.

They waited patiently for the doctor to appear.

---------------------------------------------

Jules started to collect her bag as she knew she wanted to be with Alexis. She was the only one that knew exactly how close Alexis and Clark were and she wanted to be there with her daughter.

She grabbed Carly and walked out to her car, then drove off towards the hospital.

-------------------------------------------

The doctor finally appeared and when he spoke—he had a deep tone in his voice.

"The gunshot wound to his arm was pretty severe. The bullet was lodged against the bone and when it entered his arm, it broke many veins that are vital to the body. Clark—He's still alive, but we're trying our best to get him stable. At the moment he's pretty up and down, and the only thing we can do now is try to give him enough blood. We are trying all that we can to get him better."

Everyone's faces dropped. Sophie broke down in tears as Alexis stood in shock. Just as Sam went to wrap an arm around her, she bolted to the open elevator, closing it before anyone could join her.

"Where's she going!?" Sam yelled as they watched the light above the elevator change to the 10th floor—the roof.

"The roof—Okay team—Sam, Wordy—Go up there." Greg ordered. Sophie was still in tears, but all of a sudden pulled to a state of shock as the young girl ran to the roof.

---------------

Oh my gosh. I cant live without him—I cant.

Alex walked onto the roof, the evening breeze catching her long blonde hair as she stood motionless.

---------------

"Hey guys—How's—." Jules walked into the room seeing Sam, Wordy, and Alexis missing while everyone else was pacing frantically. "What's going on?"

"Jules—Here—Let me take Carly." Greg reached out. She placed her in his arms, "What's wrong?"

"Jules—Sam and Wordy went with Alexis. Clark isn't doing too well—He's losing a lot of blood, and Alexis took off. She's on the roof."

Jules' eyes widened as she immediately took off to the elevator. "Jules! Stay down here—You're in no condition to go hang off a roof! Get back here!" He went after her, handing Carly to Spike who was sitting down in shock and Lou was catching the next elevator for Greg.

-------------------

"Alexis—Come on, don't do this." Sam spoke kindly as he watched his daughter standing with her hands pressed against the concrete ledge. She looked over her shoulder to see Sam and Wordy standing still and not approaching her. They had to no way to talk to her, nothing they could think of. She took a deep breath and slid one leg over the ledge, climbing onto the bars under it. She held on tightly.

"Come on Alexis! Get down from there! You don't have to do this." Wordy said calmly. They both started to freak out as they couldn't come close because she could jump.

"Alexis—What's going on?" Jules asked in a caring tone as she came through the doors of the hallway and onto the roof. Alexis held on tightly as she looked over her shoulder, "Mom—Go away." She cried, looking down to see concerned citizens staring up at her.

Wordy and Sam looked over to Jules who continued to walk closer. "Give me your vest." She told Sam in a whisper. Both men looked at her, "Jules—No—Its too big for you, it's dangerous—I'm not letting you hang off another building."

She shook her head, "Sam—I have to—I'm not going to watch her jump off an 8 story building. Give me the vest."

Wordy looked over to Sam as he dropped it off his back. She cringed as the heavy vest was tightened around her bruised body. Sam hooked the rappelling gear to it as she nodded, "I'll be fine."

She continued to walk towards the wall, now covered in Sam's huge vest that she knew she could potentially die if she were to jump with it on. "Hey Sweetie—What's wrong? You can tell me anything, remember?" Alexis kept silent as Jules climbed over the ledge, making Sam and Wordy cringe. "He's not going to live—He's loosing a lot of blood. I can't live without him, we've become too close." Jules sighed and smiled, "But do you really think he'd want you to do this?" Alexis glanced over at her, still holding on tightly. "Mom—We love each other." Jules nodded, "I know that sweetheart, I know."

"Hey Jules! Good news!" Wordy yelled. "Clark just got out of surgery—He's still not stable, but he's doing better!"

"Here that sweetie? Now how about we get off of here and you can go be with him. I'm sure he'd love to see you when he wakes up." Alexis smiled. "Th—Thanks Mom." She took Jules' hand slowly, trying not to slip.

Greg had shown up just as Jules started to pull herself back over the ledge. "Come on sweetie—You can do it." Jules tried to pull Alexis over. "Mom—I'm slipping." She yelled as she grabbed onto Jules' arms. "Sweetie—If I jump, the vest could slide off and we could both die—You can do this."

"Come on Jules—You can get her up." Greg yelled as he, Wordy and Sam ran up to them.

"Alexis—Grab onto my shoulder." She told her as they were both hanging on tightly. "Mom—I can't! You're hurt!" Jules sighed, "Sweetie I don't care, just hold on." Alexis gently placed her hand on Jules' shoulder as she cringed with pain. The guys pulled on the rappel rope to drag them up. When they finally were safe, Jules dropped the vest to the ground as Sam wrapped his arms around both girls.

"You okay?" He asked the two of them as Greg and Wordy patted Jules' back. They both nodded.

"Thanks Mom." Alexis whispered as she hugged her tightly. "Go see him, sweetie." She hugged her gently then walked with the rest of the group into the building.

"How are you feeling?" Sam whispered into Jules' ear as they got off the elevator. "I-need-ice." She muttered, following Alexis to the group.

"Everything okay?" Sophie asked in a worried tone. Everyone nodded as Spike handed Carly to Jules, "She loves me." He chuckled. She stared Carly in her eyes, "Why!?" They all laughed as Sophie kissed Clark's cheek and allowed Alexis to sit with him alone. Everyone walked outside the recovery room and watched Alexis approach him slowly.

---------------------------------

"She's fine Jessica—Your mom saved her." Jake hugged her tightly as they sat in front of the TV while eating dinner. Jessica couldn't even speak.

-------------------------------

"Clark?" Alexis asked sweetly, even though he was still asleep. She smiled as she placed her hand on his and wiped the tears from her eyes. "You're going to be okay—."
