Hi again! Thanks for the reviews and follows, I really appreciate it. This chapter has a small spoiler to season 1 episode 14 Poker? I Barely Know her.

I'm starting to get writer's block so if you have any ideas or "scenes" you want me to put in, just tell me.

Enjoy!

Shawn didn't know what to do. It had been forty minutes since Juliet had stopped breathing and still nobody had come with new information. He was just about to seriously consider the idea of stealing a doctor's coat, when Dr Dawson returned.

"How is she?" Shawn stood up and was quickly followed by Gus, Lassiter and Chief Vick.

"We put her on a ventilator which means that she now has a tube in her throat that will help her breath.

She still has a high fever but we don't want to do anything more to her as long as she has breathing troubles."

"Can we see..." Gus began, but Dr Dawson interrupted.

"Sure, but only one at a time. We need her to stay calm when she wakes up. The ventilator can be very uncomfortable especially when you are don't like hospitals."

"I'll go first." Chief Vick said.

Everyone looked at her but she pretended she didn't notice it. She followed Dr Dawson to Juliet's room again and was left alone with her.

"Hi Juliet." Karen looked at her limp body and tried to imagined it move.

"I know that you're scared and your body is shutting down, but I can't let you leave us.

I don't think I've told you before but I think you're a great detective. And well, you're a great person too."

She bit her lip and continued.

"You remember when you tried to surprise Lassiter for his birthday?"

She chuckled quietly at the thought that suddenly popped into her head.

"You invited all the criminals he had put behind bars and on top of that, you told his mother that he was separated from his wife. He didn't talk to you for a week."

She gave a soft laugh and looked into Juliet's sleeping face. Karen didn't have time to do anything else until Lassiter walked in the room.

"It's my turn now."

Chief Vick nodded and left without saying anything else.

Lassiter sat down next to Juliet and took her hand, careful not to touch the IV.

"O'Hara. I'm not mad about you dating Shawn anymore."

Suddenly that seemed very important to say to her.

"I was angry before but now I know that Shawn really loves you. You deserve nothing else than to be happy and I see that Shawn make you happy. But for your information I told him that I would kill him if he treated you unfairly. Just so you know."

He smiled weakly for a second and then bent over to kiss her forehead.

"You mean so much to me. I don't know if you know that, but if you can hear me now I'll have to ask you not to tell anyone. Okay?"

He shook her hand in a sort of agreement, and then carefully put it down.

"Deal. Goodbye. I'll leave now so the next person can come in, but I will be sitting right outside if you need anything."

The next person that came in was Gus. He walked slowly around Juliet and forced himself not to look at the tube coming out of her throat.

"Hello. Is nice to see you again. Well, this is kind of awkward. I don't know what to say."

He paused and straightened out her blanket.

"You now that Shawn loves you more than anything, right? I know he's very immature some times, but that's just how he is. Don't hurt him again like you did when you were together with Declan. I'm truly happy that you are with Shawn now. Now I don't have listen to him trying to flirt with you or constantly showing off."

He looked at Juliet but she didn't move. He could have been talking to the wall.

"Juliet." His voice got stronger.

"Juliet, you have to wake up now. You've slept for too long. I miss your smart comments you say to put Shawn in his place. Well, I guess Shawn wants to talk to you now so I'll go and get something to eat. Merry Christmas."

He patted her arm and left so Shawn could sit with her for a while. Gus was after all a stress-eater and the candy bar wasn't nearly enough food for him.

He passed Shawn on his way out and gave him a friendly hug.

"Wow Gus, it was a long time ago we were this intimate with each other."

"We both knew we were getting on to that stage in our relationship some day. Why not today?"

Shawn walked into Juliet's room and sat down beside her.

"Oh, my sweetheart. Please wake up. I need you to wake up for me."

Between each sentence he kissed her cheek, hoping that she would notice that he was here

and wake up.

"It doesn't matter what happened to you. I'll never leave you."

Just then Dr Dawson came in.

"Oh, I'm sorry. I didn't know you were here."

"It's okay. I'm just trying to wake her up."

The doctor smiled at him and said:

"It's great that you're talking to her and it may help, but don't be disappointed if she doesn't. She's taking her time and she'll wake up when she's ready."

The doctor began checking her vital signs and when she checked her pulse, Juliet started to move. Very weakly and slowly but she was moving. Shawn leaned forward and took her hand.

"Juliet, Sweetheart? I'm here, don't be scared."

Juliet's eyes opened slowly and Shawn kissed her again.

Dr Dawson smiled and said:

"Welcome back Juliet. How are you feeling?"

Juliet opened her mouth to speak stopped herself when she felt something in her mouth

"You were having trouble breathing so we had to put a tube down your throat to help you breathe. The tube goes into your vocal chords so you can't talk now, but hopefully it won't be needed for a long time."

Dr Dawson quickly added when she saw the scared look in Juliet's eyes.

Juliet nodded and took Shawn's hand. He kissed it and asked the doctor:

"For how long will she have to have the tube in?"

"We'll take it out as soon as we're certain she can breathe on her own."

She took Juliet's temperature and said:

"Her fever has gotten down a little. Do you want me to tell the other ones that you're awake?"

Juliet nodded.

Shawn thanked the doctor one more time and kissed Juliet once again.

Juliet smiled weakly.

"I'm so glad to see you smile again. You have a whole fan-club waiting for you. Lassiter, Gus and the Chief. You have to excuse Gus if he smells like a snickers factory, but as you know he's a... "

"Stress-eater." Juliet said with barely a whisper.

Shawn's smile widened.

"I love you." He gave her another kiss.

"Oh come on. We're in a hospital."

Shawn broke the kiss and looked up to see Gus, Lassiter and Chief Vick smirking at him.

"Oh suck it Lassie."

So this chapter has a little Shules in it. If you liked it or have any pointers, please review. They make me do a happy dance and fist-bump the first person I see :-) See you next chapter!
