Wow, so sorry you guys! I have been so busy with school and other things, FF has had to be on the back burner (

They had told Will to go on home and try to get some rest – it was unlikely Jack would awake from the coma within the week. Justin walked him back to his apartment and gently kissed his cheek in a brotherly way more than anything.

"Do you want me to stay with you?" Justin asked and lovingly caressed his cheek. Will really liked Justin and it was a relief to have him there.

"Thanks Justin, but I think I will be alright for tonight. I'll call you."

Justin nodded and touched his shoulder. Will smiled and said goodbye to Justin as he slowly entered his empty apartment. Looking at it, Will would've given anything to see Jack sitting at the table eating a bowl of cereal and reading the singles classifieds in the morning paper.

He carried himself absent-mindedly to his bedroom and flopped on his bed not even bothering to take his formal clothes off. There was too much to think about and being comfortable seemed to be the least of his worries. Will imagined Jack sleeping in that huge white bed with a mess of machines and clear IV tubes in his wrists.

Tears slipped from the corner of Will's eyes and dripped into his ears. Why did I shrug Jack off like that? What kind of friend could I possibly have been to ignore him like that? I was with Justin. I deserve some time to myself…don't I?

Will constantly battled himself of these conversations, especially during the long wait at the hospital. He desperately wanted to see him but the doctor told him it wouldn't have been allowed until tomorrow afternoon. Will couldn't possibly go to work with this on his mind. Then again, it would be nice to take this off his mind as well.

The telephone rang but Will didn't bother getting up. The familiar message of Grace and Will's appeared on the machine, then a beep.

"Will? It's me Grace. I really need to talk to you okay? Please call me back as soon as -" Will sensed Grace had been crying. He rushed to pick up the phone and answered with a short 'Hello'.

"Will -" Grace sounded extremely relieved. "Thank goodness you're home. I really needed to talk to you. Something horrible has happened to me Will. I've been raped." She said, sobbing into the receiver.

Will stood there, completely stunned. This had been such a wonderful night until ten-thirty. "What? How did this happen? Shit, are you alright? Where is Karen?" Will was full of questions.

"I am not really sure what happened. I met this really nice guy on the slopes and we went to the lodge to have some coffee and the next thing I know we are at his cabin and I just felt like something was wrong about him so I asked to leave and he -" Grace was too difficult to understand by then. She was crying too hard.

"Grace, you have to go to the police, do you hear me? Any kind of law enforcement up there so they can get some evidence and catch that fucker."

Grace's sobs quieted to whimpers as she agreed with Will. "Okay. I will try and go to the police -" Screams were heard from the background and Grace shouted for Will to help her. Will heard a man's voice come on the line.

"Bad idea, Will." The voice grumbled then the line went dead. Will's hands began to shake. He put the receiver down and grabbed his coat. The phone rang again.

Thinking it could be Grace Will picked it up. "Hello?" He asked in a panic.

"Mr. Truman? This is Dr. York. Jack is having some extreme difficulties; we need you at the hospital right away in case we need you to sign any forms."

Will did not know what to do. There he was, trapped in between the lives of his best friends.
