"Don't leave me in all this pain don't leave me out in the rain…un-break my heart"-Toni Braxton
Everything was perfect. Everything had been going wonderful for them until now. If only she could have known what was coming she wouldn't have let him walk out the door this morning.
Her heart pounded in her chest as she made her way through the countless rows of stacked containers in the heavy rain. This couldn't be happening not now not like this, they still had time. This morning Harold and them had got a number the led them to a human trafficking ring. Their plan hadn't gone the way it was suppose to and they had lost contact with John. They had called her and Fusco to help them find him. When they got to the site they found wounded and dead bodies of the human traffickers. Her, Shaw and Fusco split up and were now traversing the maze of containers looking for him. Her thoughts were disrupted by the echo of multiple gunshots.
As she rounded the corner heading toward the gun shots her worst nightmares were creeping into her conscience. Her heart dropped as she saw John leaning against the side of a container clutching his chest. He was hurt badly and even in the heavy rain pouring down around them it couldn't hide the blood coming from his chest. She called out his name as she barely managed to catch him before he collapsed to the ground. She turned him over and tried to stop the blood that was seeping out of his wounds. This wasn't happening. No not yet. Why was time being so unkind to them?
She tapped her earpiece and told Harold to send Shaw and Fusco her way and to call an ambulance. She cradled him in her lap and told him to hold on. He couldn't die not now he couldn't leave her like this. He was trying to hang on as he struggled to breath. He was trying to tell her something but the words couldn't leave his mouth. But as they looked into each other eyes she knew what he was trying to say, what he wanted her to know before he left her. In a matter of seconds his chest fell, his eyes closed and he was gone. She sat there in the pouring rain holding him as she cried her eyes out begging him to open his eyes and come back to her. But no matter how much she begged and pleaded she knew he was gone and never coming back.
Her tears and sobs where drown out by the rain as her heart completely broke and shatter into a dust so fine that it could never be unbroken and put back together again.
