I opened my eyes as I heard an unfamiliar voice calling my name. It was then I realized I was in the hospital and a nurse was telling me I was in a bad car accident and had to have emergency surgery.  She told me the surgery went well and I was going to make a full recovery.  I also had a concussion and a few minor cuts and bruises.  I was going to be moved to ICU soon and then my family would be able to see me. 

"My girls are they here?" I asked in a low voice early above a whisper.

"Yes, they are as well as your friend Jess and a very handsome man named Jordan. As soon as you are transferred they can come see you."  the nurse replied. 

"Thank you." 

"I know this may seem inappropriate, but your man is he the Jordan Knight? He looks like him but I thought I was seeing things. I am a huge fan." The nurse asked.

"Yes, that's him and it's fine. I am used to getting asked that a lot.  It seemed unreal to me too, but I really am dating Jordan Knight."  

"Well, you are a lucky gal." 

"I know I am. "

The transporters came and moved me to my room in ICU where I will be for a few days and then moved to a regular floor for the rest of my time here.  Considering I was in an accident, I felt ok.  I mean I had a little headache from the crash and my surgical incision was tender but all in all I was doing better than I thought I would. I just wanted to see my girls and Jordan.  Finally, I was settled and they sent for my girls. 

"Hey, Mom, I am so glad you are ok." Rachel said with tears in her eyes and Lizzie said the same.  

"I'm ok girls, really, don't cry.  The doctor says I will make a full recovery. I am glad to see you both and I am sorry I scared you both." I replied.  Both of them gave me a kiss and a hug. 

"Mom, it was not your fault and we love you. We are just glad you are fine." Lizzie said. 

"I will be staying a few days with Lizzie til I am sure you are fine. " Rachel stated. 

"Yeah, we are here for whatever you need, no worries.  Jess and Jordan are out there waiting to see you too.  They both were just as concerned as we were." Lizzie told me. 

"Again I am sorry to worry you guys, but I am glad to see you both. Will you send in Jordan next.  I know he is worried like crazy and I want to see him too." I told my girls.

"Of course, mom.  We know you love him and he loves you too.  I know he is beside himself with worry about you.  He cried right along with us.  He really is so sweet mom. " Rachel stated. 

I smiled at the sound of my daughter telling me she thought Jordan was sweet.  It has always been important to me that my girls love him almost as much as I do.  Both of them left to send him in to see me.  I could not wait to see him.  I knew he would be so worried about me and I wanted to let him know I am going to be ok.  I am sure the doctor told him, but I know how he is and he would need to see for himself. I heard the door to my room open and in he walked. God, he was beautiful and I missed him so much the last few days we were apart.  All I wanted him to do was come over to me and kiss me. 

"Hi baby. I am going to be ok. I am sorry to worry you and take you away from your work." I said to him.

"Hey beautiful, I missed you and don't be sorry.  I am just glad you are ok." He replied as he came to my bedside and kissed my lips and held my hand.  I could see he had been crying and my heart melted. 

"You scared the hell out of me you know? I thought I was gonna lose you and I did not think I could live without you.  I still don't think I can and I never want to feel that way again. I love you so much." He said with tears in his eyes.
