A/N: Hello, again, and my apologies, again. Saying that my first week of the new semester has been hectic would be an understatement. However, I have not forgotten about the story. I will continue writing through my 19 credit hours; it just might take me a bit longer. Thank you for your patience! Please read and review this next chapter. I hope you enjoy it.

"Kate, I'm pregnant." Colette choked out and another surge of pain attacked her. She bit her lip to keep from crying out but she gently moaned as she allowed her head to fall on Kate's shoulder.

Kate wasn't sure for a moment why Colette was telling her something that she already knew. Then she realized, it was because She was afraid that what ever was happening had to do with the baby.

"Should I get Dean?" Kate felt so helpless. She had trained for this kind of a situation… well, sort of. But she couldn't think of what to do.

Colette shook her head frantically "He can't know, I didn't tell him. Kate you can't tell him." She was growing frantic.

"Ok, I won't, I promise!" Kate cooed. Colette gasped at another sharp pain, and blood began running down her legs staining her pristinely pressed blue uniform and her stockings.

"Colette we need to get you help though, you need a doctor." Kate stood up and poked her head out of the curtain.

"Laura! Come here" Laura was concerned it was clear from her sister's face that there was a serious problem.

"What is it?" Laura tried to enter past the curtain but Kate wouldn't let her.

'We have a sick passenger; we need to land and find a doctor. I need you to tell Dean."

"Okay." Laura nodded and rushed off.

Kate returned to Colette's side, she was perspiring heavily trying to stay awake and fight against the pain.

"Just hang on Colette, we're getting you help." Colette tried to put on a brave face. She was angry that it had come out like this, and even more upset that was so vulnerable. She hated feeling weak, like people could see through her. The next surge of pain kicked all of the air out of her lungs. She squeezed Kate's offered hand as she tried to drink the air back into her lungs.

"Should it hurt this much?" Kate was beginning to lose her cool. She couldn't take seeing her friend in so much pain.

"I don't know…" tears were streaming down Colette's face and her eyes were pleading with Kate to do something. She knew it wasn't fair because they were thousands of feet above ground and Kate was no doctor.

"Hang on." Kate rushed out into the plane. "Is there a doctor on board?" she called out. "We have a medical emergency. Can anyone help please?" She would have been completely hysterical if not for her training. She continued to repeat her script until she had reached almost the back of the plane when a man stood up claiming to be a doctor. Kate grabbed his hand and dragged him back to Colette.

"She's pregnant." Kate said quietly once they reached the room.

"How far are you along?" The man asked Colette.

"I don't know I haven't been to a doctor yet." Colette could still feel the blood running down her legs.

"Miss, I'm sorry but you are having a miscarriage." The man tried to be gentle about it. But there was no good way of telling anybody that; even someone who had considered not keeping the child.
