Molly slept on the couch beside Jake's bed even though he begged her to sleep with him she didn't want to hurt him. she couldn't sleep much most of the night she watched Jake making sure he was ok. The next morning, she had woken up before Jake and normally that would worry her, but he needed rest. She made her way to the vending machine to get a coffee than headed upstairs to Jake. She was surprised when she came back to find Jake awake in the room, he looked like he just woke up.

" Hey, you how are you feeling baby."

" Ok my back hurts like a bitch." He said with a groan.          

" Yeah, you did break your spine."

" Molly why can't I feel my legs, Molly!"

" Easy take it easy you don't remember do you?"

" No."

" You broke your spine you lost the ability to use your legs the doctors are looking for a way to help you."

" Have they said anything?" 

" They ran some tests, and they should be back today they say it's bad but your strong you'll be fine, and I will be with you the whole time." She said walking over to him. 

He griped her hand and held it the first they touched with just love not checking for injuries she looked at her hand. This was something she thought she never feel again she still thought about what if he died. She knew he wasn't out of the woods, yet he looked up at her just wanting to hold her. He knew she was putting on a brave face not to worry him but all he wanted was her to talk to him.    

" Baby... how are you doing with all this"

" Fine..."

" Baby... come on."

" I... I thought you were goanna die."

He pulled her into a hug not caring about the pain he was in, but he hissed in pain, and she pulled back from sobbing into his neck. He kept his arms around her and kissed her.

 " Jake, you're hurting yourself." she spoke between kisses.  

" I don't care baby I want to feel you."

" Jake baby I don't want to hurt you."

A few minus later the doctor came in and said that they had a surgery they could, but Jake didn't have it covered. So, he had to pay for it out of pocket he did not have the money, so they sent him home in a wheelchair. He told her not to worry about the money, but she got a job and saved up for it not telling him.   

* Time skip *

It's been six months since the accident Jake has got used to the wheelchair, but he stared drinking it has caused fights between him and Molly. They got a house together, but Molly is not home much working 84 hours a week 12 hours a day. While Jake spends his days at the bar getting drunk with friends. The only time they spend together is when Molly takes care of him when he is wasted. Tommy and Molly have tried getting him to talk to someone, but he says he does not need it and shuts the idea down. 

 Molly gets home from another 12-hour day and noticed Jake was not home and called Tommy.

" Tommy he's gone again.'

" I'm heading to the bar now."

" Ok bring him home once you find him, I'll take care of him here."

" Ok do you want me to talk to him."

" No, he won't listen and more so when he is like this trust me, I've tried."   

She starts getting ready for when he is home when he came, he was dunk her and Tommy had to lift him on to the bed. Molly lays on the couch and cries herself to sleep like so many nights before she feels hopeless. Jake wakes up before her and sees her on couch tear stans on her cheeks he knows she is late but just covers her with a blanket. He calls in for her so she can stay home today she wakes up a few minutes later looks at the clock.

" Aww shit."

" I'm not talking to you."

" B... baby please."

She just glares at him and goes to shower he does not dare to go after her

 but yells " I called you in your goanna have to talk to me at some point."  

 " I already called in dipshit."

She gets in the shower and Jake waits outside to talk to her he knows he messed up but wants to fix it. Then he hears Molly crying in the shower she tried to calm herself down, but the tears just kept coming.

" Molly come out I want to talk."

She comes out in her pj's " and when have you been there for me lately."

" Molly... I tried you are never home."

" Oh, so it's on me now I'm never home because I've been saving money for your surgery!" she said raising her voice.

" Well, I told you not to you did anyway!"  they both are yelling now.

" Are you fucking kidding me what the hell was I supposed to do your getting dunk every day and you're scaring me!"

She is screaming with tears running down her face and he stops dead in his tracks seeing how bad she feeling.
