3 months later. Gabby had the baby. Her name is Audrey Jamie Casey!
Jamie's POV:
Jake still hasn't woken up. I'm missing him so bad. His leg is healed and his face only has some healed over cuts. No scars. I haven't left his side at all. I have been home schooling. Well, from the hospital. He's slowly getting colour back to his face. I miss him so so bad. His chocolate brown eyes. His smile. I get up and sit beside him. I hold his hand. I've been speaking to him all the time.
"Hey baby, I'm still here. I've never left. I really wish you were here. I'm 17 today." I tell him, "I wish you were here to celebrate it. It's almost been a year since I came to our school! I miss you!"
I lay my head on the bed. I cry softly when I feel a hand stroke my hair. I sit up and see Jake's chocolate eyes staring down at me. I stand up and kiss his head.
"Hey baby." I whisper, pressing the button that will said to press if he wakes up.
Soon Will runs in. He sees Jake awake.
"Hey buddy, welcome back." Will smiles
Jake mumbles and points at the tube
"Yeah we can take that out Jake." Will chuckles and removes the tube.
Jake coughs, "wa..ter!" He rasps
I hand him my bottle. He drinks it. I smile and kiss him softly
"Hey honey." I smile
"Hey, how long has it been?" He asks
"3 months!" I whisper, "I haven't left the hospital since then."
"Baby, you could've." He whispers
"I physically couldn't." I tell him
"Come, lie down beside me." He wriggles over.
I smile and lie down beside him. Will takes a photo and I send it to dad.

D: that's amazing baby girl. We're on our way! Audrey has missed you.

I put my phone away and cuddle against Jake. He kisses my head.
"Knock Knock!" I hear at the door.
I look up to see Mom, Dad, Louie and Audrey, being held by Mom. They walk in.
"Hey Jake," mom smiles
"Hey Gabby." He replies, "is this the new baby?"
He looks to Audrey
"Yeah, Audrey Jamie Casey." Mom smiles
"Jakey!" Louie runs up and tries to climb on the bed.
I lift him up and he hugs Jake
"Hey Louie bud, how are you?" Jake chuckles
"You missed my fifth birthday." Louie pouts
"Oh sorry buddy!" Jake tickles Louie
Louie giggles.
"Hey Jake, you can leave in tomorrow if everything's good!" Will exclaims
"Great!" Jake chuckles and I lay down beside him
We chat a little longer 'fore they leave and I sleep beside him.
