Chapter 6
When I Need You The Most
The next day at the ER,
Abby was sitting in the lounge when Carter walked inside. Abby looked up at
Carter and she smiled slightly.
"Morning Abby," smiled Carter as he sat down next to Abby.
"Hi Carter, "said Abby as she drank her coffee. Carter looked up at
Abby. "So how long have you been here?" asked Carter.
"I have been here since 7 in the morning," said Abby. "So how
did it go last night?" asked Carter as he looked up at Abby. "It was
okay, "said Abby softly. When I slept that is, thought Abby.
"I missed you, you know," said Carter gently. Kerry then enters the
lounge. "Carter and Abby, we need you both out here, we have a multiple
MVA coming," said Kerry as she left the lounge. "Okay, we are coming,"
said Carter. Abby and Carter both looked at each other, and then left the lounge.
"I missed you too," Abby whispered to herself as they left the lounge.

Later that day,
Abby was just on her way to go on her break when Randi told her that there was
a phone call for her.
"Thanks Randi," said Abby as she picked up the phone. "This is
Abby Lockhart," she said as she sat down." Yes, okay. I’ll be
there. Thanks . Bye, said Abby as she hung the phone up. "Is everything
okay?" asked Randi. "Yeah, I’m fine." said Abby as she
walked out of the ER Bay doors.
***
About 10 minutes later,
"Randi, have you seen Abby?" asked Carter. Randi looked up from her
computer. She went on her break about 10 minutes ago.
"Thanks, Randi" said Carter softly as he started to walk to the lounge.
"Carter, you are friends with Abby, aren’t you" asked Randi
softly. "Yeah, why?" asked Carter as he turned around. "Well,
Abby got a phone call and she seemed really upset about it. "Oh, okay."
said Carter as he walked out of the ER Bay doors. Carter knew exactly where
Abby would be. He wondered what the phone call could have been about.

Abby was sitting by the lakeside. She then took a cigarette out of her bag,
and lit it. I have two days, and then I have to testify against Brian. I don’t
know if I can do this, and then I have to say that I was drunk the day that
Brian hit me, thought Abby to herself.
"Abby" said Carter softly as he came toward her. Abby looked up at
Carter. "Carter, what are you doing here?" Abby asked a little surprised
as she threw the cigarette on the ground.
"I just wanted to see if you were okay?" said Carter delicately as
he sat down next to Abby.
"Carter, I’m fine. You don’t need to worry about me. It’s
nothing, "said Abby softly
Carter looked up at Abby, and he could see that something was definitely bothering
her.
"Abby, I will always worry about you, just tell me what is bothering you,
maybe I can help," said Carter softly. "There is nothing you can do
to help me, "said Abby softly as she got up from the bench.
Carter then got up from the bench." Abby, do you trust me?" asked
Carter quietly.
"Of course I trust you, you are my best friend and I trust you with my
life," said Abby softly.
"And my heart" Abby thought to herself. "Well, then tell me what
is wrong?" said Carter firmly.
Abby then moved away from Carter, and walked toward the lake. "I got a
phone call today, Brian’s trial starts in two days, and I have to testify."
Oh Carter, I didn’t think the trial was going to start this soon, I’m
not sure if I can do this." said Abby quietly.
Carter then moved toward Abby. "Abby, I will help you through it all, you
aren’t alone in this." said Carter softly.
"Oh Carter, I don’t know how I can ever thank you. I couldn’t
have gone through this without you," said Abby softly.
"Abby, I will always be there when you need me. Carter then put his hand
on Abby’s face. Abby looked into Carter’s eyes, she felt so safe
with Carter, and she did something that she had planned to do, she leaned over
and kissed Carter.
