This is for you Em
When Calleigh awoke, she was still in her wedding gown. As she remembered that morning, she started to cry again. Getting out of the bed, she walked over to Horatio's side, and crawled in beside him placing her hand over his heart.
"I love you Handsome", Please, come back to us". "I never got a chance a tell you I'm pregnant", "We are going to have a baby". "You need to come home".
As Calleigh spoke over and over, she cried hot tears all down his shoulder and arm until she fell asleep.
Meanwhile.......
Horatio was wandering around in Limbo, lost. He could hear Calleigh calling him. But he couldn't see her. As he walked along, he seen a figure coming out of the mist.
"Who's there"? asked Horatio. "Show yourself".
As the figure got closer he realized it was Speedle.
"Speed"? "I thought you were"? "How"?
"Listen Horatio, I'm here to help you get home to Calleigh".
"But I am home with her, we got married today". "You should have been there, it was beautiful".
"Horatio"! "Listen, you were shot three times, once in the shoulder, twice in the chest, and you suffered damage to your brain, when you fell and cracked your skull". "You are walking around in Limbo, I need to help you get back, before you forget everything, and stay here forever".
"Where is Calleigh"?
"Look down Horatio, through the clouds, you'll see her laying their in your arms". "She's waiting for you too come back to her". "You have too go back "H", she needs you and the baby needs you".
"Baby"? "What baby".
"Your baby, Calleigh is with child, your child, she was going to tell you on your Honeymoon". "That's why you need to go back, it's not your time".
"What do you mean it's not my time"? "I don't understand Speed".
"Horatio, you are at the half way point of life and death, this is where you come, until they are ready to come and get you". "But because it is not your time, you'll be stuck here forever". "They do not come for you, until it is your time". "Go back "H", now before it's too late".
"How do I get back"?
"Listen to Calleigh's cries and pleads, follow her sound and your heart, you'll get back to where you need too be". "Take care "H".
Horatio walked up and embraced Speedle, as he disappeared into the mist.
"Handsome, come home to me, please Handsome, I need you with us, come back too me".
Horatio followed Calleigh's voice until he was standing at his bed looking over at his body and Calleigh with her hand over his heart. Walking slowly beside his bed, he laid down and reentered his body. Lifting his arm he placed it on Calleigh's hand and that's when he seen their rings lock and shine.
Calleigh felt the touch of a warm hand on hers, and as she lifted her head, "H" was looking into her eyes and smiling.
*Whispering* Calleigh, I love you".
"Handsome, handsome, you're awake, Oh God", you're awake".
Calleigh rang the buzzer for the doctor, as they came running into the room they seen Horatio awake.
The doctor was truely shocked. "Nurse order a CT Scan and brainwave please", Stat". "Horatio"! "DO you know where you are"?
*whisper* "Hospital".
"That's right". "Do you know what day it is"?
*Whispering* "My wedding day".
