Summary: Somehow he hoped that between the sound of his voice and his presence Sammie’s pain would be lessened.
Author's Notes: The second part of The Bachelor and the Bobbysoxer series. This takes place during Tony’s assignment to the USS Reagan.
The dingy that was the Tony/Maddie ship has actually grown. Pretty soon we might get our own fishing trawler!
The character of Sammie Weeks is loosely based on a modernization of Samantha Stewart from Foyle’s War. So sad that is over.
The words that Maddie had written had flowed from Tony’s lips for over an hour. Some of the words were truly intimate and some were mundane, but Tony kept reading. Somehow he hoped that between the sound of his voice and his presence Sammie’s pain would be lessened. Still, as time passed, he could watch her eyes grow more clouded and her face more etched with pain. He was beginning regret not trying to get them both out of the blast area, but frankly he didn’t think that he could move her or that she would survive the trip.
Speaking the last few words of the letter he was reading Tony kissed the paper, a habit he’d developed in lieu of kissing Maddie goodnight or good morning, and folded it back into its envelop. He had started to pull another one out, when he felt Sammie’s hand tug at him.
When he smiled questioningly at her, she whispered to him, “She’s the one. She’s the girl that going to stick around and make you happy. You’ll finally feel ready to get down on one knee and she’ll say yes. She’ll make you a daddy and you’ll do anything for her. You will have eternity together.”
“Not sure I believe I’ll get my happy ending,” Tony sighed.
“I’ve seen it. While you’ve read her words, I’ve seen your future and it is beautiful.” Sammie gave him an impish smile and for a moment the pain seemed to drift off her features, “Don’t tell Sam Jethro that he’s name after a girl until he’s at least 17. And don’t worry, naming K.C. Kelly Caitlyn won’t make her morbid, nor will she die young, but her Aunt Abby will turn her Goth.”
Tony stared at Sammie. He’d never once mentioned Kate to the young woman and, although he had told her about Gibbs, he never said that Gibbs was called Jethro. It made no sense that she would know any of that. “How do you know that?”
“It’s been like a movie playing in my head, in black and white for some reason. Tony, please, promise me that you’ll marry Maddie, that you’ll survive so that Sam and K.C. can become reality.”
Tony nodded, a tear gathering at the corner of his eye, “I promise.”
A look of tranquility passed over her, “Kelly’s happy that her dad will get to walk Maddie down the aisle. Be happy, Tony.”
“I will,” he whispered.
Suddenly, Sammie’s pain was back and her whole body began writhing and contorting in agony.
Tony’s chest tightened as he knew there was nothing he could do.
