Camille's POV
They had Jasen hooked up to all kinds of machines and by me being his wife I had to sign off to a million procedures. When I finally got a break I called my momma to check on my babies. I explained the situation to her and I told her I didn't want them to see their daddy this way. After talking to them all and saying our prayers over the phone I was exhausted. I laid back in the uncomfortable hospital chair and tried to get some rest. Until a nurse came and began tapping on my shoulder.

"Mrs.King?", She asked

"Yes", I answered

"Mr.King woke up about an hour ago , he's been asking for you, but I must warn you that his words are sluggish and he has no feeling on his left side at all so be gentle", She warned

"Yes ma'am" , I said before

I walked into the room and he looked pitiful I almost felt bad for the guy.

"Camille", He said lowly

"Yes Jasen", I answered with a bit of attitude

"Sorry", He croaked out

"Umhmm , Jasen I can't believe you pulled a stunt like this", I told him truthfully

He just held his head down

"But I'm glad you're ok", I said grabbing his hand and giving him a slight smile

"Thanks for everything", He said lowly before his machine beeped and his eyes closed

I was lost for words Jasen better get his ass up I'm not raising these damn kids alone.

*next week*

Jasen's been doing well he's still in a coma but the doctors are looking for him to wake up any day now.
I was cleaning up the house the other day when I found a crazy looking journal under our bed. Hey I saw it as fair game so here I was reading it. I recognized Jasen's fancy penmanship immediately. The first page was titled "I owe you Camille" and I began to read . I must admit it was so touching tears were flying down my cheeks uncontrollably. I finally knew the truth about my husband and it made me feel so much better. On my way back to the hospital I brought the journal along with me in hopes that he'd be awake today so we could talk about this. When I walked into the room the nurse was changing his IV and his eyes were barely open.

"Baby you're up", I rushed to his bed side and kissed his lips

He looked so confused hell I can't say that I blamed him.

"Whats going on", He whispered

I just pulled the journal out and he covered his face with his right hand.

" Why didn't you tell me baby", I asked him

" It wasn't important", He said

"Jasen being Bipolar and schizophrenic is really important baby and especially since you don't take your meds like you're supposed to", I said to him

"Camille I was embarrassed , I'm half a man", He barely whispered

"You're all the man that I need though baby and we'll work past this issue", I said kissing his forehead

Then I began humming our favorite song , You're All I Need To Get By , by Tammi Terrell and Marvin Gaye and he nodded his head along with me. Now that I knew his problem and his past I felt that I could help him work past it and we could get back on track. One thing about us is we always wonder back to eachother. But with him being paralyzed I don't know what happens now .
