Prologue
One
last thing
"Berg
wake up. You can't fester in bed for
the rest of your life," Pete said as he gently kissed bergs head.
"Do
that again," berg said dreamily
"If
I do we'll both be in bed for the rest of the day," Pete said as he walked
out of bergs bedroom and went into the lounge.
"Pete
come back to bed," berg shouted out from the bedroom door
"I
can't there isn't enough time left," Pete said as he waited for berg to come
out of his bedroom.
Berg
walked into the lounge grumbling about the lack of early morning sex. Berg walked over to Pete and grabbed him
from behind wrapping his arms around Pete's waist.
"You're
so sexy in the mornings. I wish I could
see you like this more often," Pete said.
"We
have years to watch each other in the morning," berg said
"No
morning is ever the same as the last one," Pete said as he let himself go
from bergs embrace and dragged berg over to the couch.
"Pete
do you want to go back to bed and make this morning even more special,"
berg said with a waggle of his eyebrows.
"Berg
if I died tomorrow what would you do," Pete asked in s serious tone of
voice.
"I
would throw a huge party," berg answered with a chuckle
"Berg
I'm being serious. Would you back to
Ashley," Pete said
"I
honestly don't know what I would do.
Why is it so important for you to know babe," berg asked
"I
want to know that you would go on with your life if I passed away
suddenly," Pete said
"I'd
be fine," berg said in a worried tone of voice.
"Berg
would you find someone else," Pete asked
"I
honestly don't know," berg answered
"Berg
promise me that if I suddenly died you would find someone else. I can't the thought of you being
alone," Pete said as he got up of the couch.
Berg
got up of the couch and gently took hold of Pete's chin so he could look his
lover in the eyes.
"Pete
I promise you that if anything happens I'll be fine. Now stop worrying so much," berg said as he gently took hold
of Pete and gave him a kiss
"Berg
why don't you grab a shower and we can go out for breakfast for a change,"
Pete said as he pushed berg towards the direction of the bathroom.
"See
you in five minutes," berg said
---------
Berg
had just stepped outside the shower and was quickly getting dressed when there
was an urgent knocking sound coming from their front door.
"Pete
get the door will ya," berg shouted out from the bathroom as he put his
T-shirt on
The
knocking was still coming from their front door and this time it sounded a
little more urgent.
"Pete
answer the damn door," berg said.
Berg quickly put on his trousers and some shoes and entered the lounge
area so he could answer the front door.
When he entered the lounge area Pete was nowhere to be seen. Berg went over to the front door and quickly
opened it. He was about to come up with
some smart ass comment about Pete being a lazy good for nothing sod, but any comment
he may said died on his lips when he sae the look on Sharon's face
"Oh
thank god berg. I've been trying to
contact you for the last two hours," Sharon said as she pushed her way
past berg and entered the apartment.
"Sharon
why have you been trying to contact me," berg asked
"Its
Pete his been involved in a very bad accident," Sharon said as she gently
guided berg to the couch before he could collapse on the floor.
"W-what
happened," berg asked to stunned to ask anything else
"He
was going out to buy a paper and as he was crossing the road a car hit him. Oh go berg you have to get to the
hospital," Sharon said as the tears ran freely down her face.
"H-h-how
bad is it," berg asked in detached tone of voice
"The
tell me it could have been worse, considering." Sharon said pausing for
breath.
"Considering
what," berg demanded.
"The
car didn't stop. Pete was laying by the
side of the road for twenty minutes before anyone noticed him," Sharon
said
"How
bad are his injuries," berg asked.
"The
doctors tell me that he has several broken ribs, a broken arm, several
bruises. Berg his also in a coma due to
the head injury," Sharon said.
Berg
sat on the couch with his head between his knees silently thinking to
himself. How could Pete be in a
hospital bed in a coma when he had been talking to him five minutes ago? Berg rubbed a hand over his face and looked
directly at Sharon.
"We
had better get going to the hospital," berg said
Berg
and Sharon left the apartment and headed straight for the hospital.
