    JOHN CARTER

    You and Carter had been trying for a baby for nearly two years. Both of you being medical students at Cook County General, you met and fell in love on an instant: it happened so naturally and your love continues to blossom.

    You have never felt so happy as to when you asked your trusted friend Dr Lewis to give you an ultrasound and you saw a little body display on screen. Dr Lewis was so happy for you both, aware of the love you have for one another.

He has been so good to you during the pregnancy, holding your bags for you, making you healthy dinners and reminding you of every little thing that could have any chance of harming the baby.

    Hours pass, you awaken as you see Carter sat by your bedside, his hand resting in yours gently. You smile softly until you see his facial expression: it fades as quick as a passing breath.
