Summary
“But I want to fix this. I want– Sammy, I want to be allowed to marry you. I– This isn’t fair.”
“No,” Sam sighed and Josh could almost picture the look on his face, the sad shimmer of his eyes, the slant of his lips, the furrow of his eyebrows. He ached to reach across the space between them and smooth out the wrinkle on his forehead, run his fingers through his hair, hold him close. Instead he just rolled on his side and reached for Sam’s side of the bed, empty bar for his pillow. “No, it’s not fair. I– It’s not fair. But we’ll get there. One day, I promise you, Joshua Lyman, one day, I will be be able to marry you, and it will be beautiful, and I will never let you go.”
“You can’t promise me that, Sammy.”

Summary
“Josh…”
The cement dug harshly into his knees when they buckled under him and he fell to the ground at Sam’s side, hands fluttering uselessly beside him, unsure suddenly what he should do. His mouth was moving, yelling for help, for someone, anyone, as Sam’s eyes started to slip shut, and Josh grabbed hold of him so he wouldn’t hit the ground. Josh’s throat ached with how loud he was screaming, but he couldn’t stop, not when it was still just the two of them, not when Sam’s breath was stuttering against the side of his neck, not when his blood was seeping through his fingers and pooling in every line in his hands, not when the only thought racing through his head was an endless stream of he can’t die, he can’t die, he can’t die, he can’t–

Summary
“So what name is it that Carly’s stealing from you?”
He asked with an air of coolness, like he hadn’t just been thinking about it. It made her feel strange, that while she was making coffee and digging around in his fridge, Josh was thinking about the names she had chosen for her children.
“If you mock it,” she said, “I’m walking right out of here and not coming back.”
He nodded, visibly trying to fight a grin. She took a deep breath.
“Allegra,” she told him.Donna's cousin Carly is having a baby. Title is from Five Years Time by Noah and the Whale.
