"You gon miss me?"

"Do you have to ask?"

"Yes." I said and He laughed.

"Aight, I will miss you. I hope you don't get hit with a hurricane or some weird ass tragic event."

"I love you." I said my voice soft.

"I love you too." He said and I hugged Brandon, Mario and Angelina and her little baby Angelica.

"Bye y'all I said and kissed them and ran to the taxi.

October 24, 2012 (No video tape)

I woke up and there was a lot of flooding. Yesterday was the hurricane warning, today is the morning after. My world is torn in half, I didn't even wanna wake and let's wait to start the morning process. I don't have a way to call home it's raining non stop and I still have to work. They decided hey we can get you in a wet suit and you can model in the water and then we can find a way home. I did it yesterday and I'm stuck still. I heard a helicopter land on the hotel and my name being shouted. I ran up to the roof and they grabbed me and Marshall was here.

"Look we don't have power at the house because a lot of snow so we just gotta cuddle up." He said and I breathed and tears fell over. I looked at him and he grabbed me and held my hand calmly. The helicopter ride is in total six hours and I'm sure I have a fever from yesterday's adventure. I've been filming everyday that I've had to leave and right now I'm continuing that. I looked down at the flooded city and I exhaled. He looked at me peacefully and I smiled. My stuff lay still lie on my feet and the video camera in my hands.

Home

I woke up and started coughing. He was walking up the drive way with me on his shoulder. He walked in the house and laid the stuff on floor. He laid me down on the couch and then he walked calmly up the stairs. I opened my eyes fully about an hour later. I stood up shivering and my head was killing me. I was sick to my stomach so I ran to the bathroom and threw up. I coughed up some mucus that was mixed with blood. I crawled to the tub and ran the water. Is the power back on? The water's warm and despite my sickness, I flip on the light switch and the lights pop on, then I hear the fire place running. I turn off the light and I lie back down into the hot water and then I stop the water at the brim so I don't move. I feel myself slipping under the water but I can't get up because I'm weakened. I learned not the panic just hold on and pray that I don't run out of air. I look straight up and I see my babies and Marshall at my casket. I can't do that. I close my eyes and then I feel myself being dragged up into cold air and a warm towel I breathe out and cough. My heart rate is faster and my breathing definitely quickened. I was shaking like a wet dog and my head hurts like crazy. More than it did earlier. I was laid back into a bed and he rubbed my back.

"Baby, I'ma call a doctor. Your fever is 104.8."

"Okay." I said softly and he walked downstairs.

1 Hour Later

"Hey, Ms. Jewel. You're showing signs of a lung infection called pneumonia. So, we need to take you into the hospital for testing."

Marshall's POV

2 Weeks Later

The girls were sitting with me and we were watching Lilo and Stitch. Kim was at the end of the couch with the new baby. I don't even know who she got pregnant by I'm just helpin' out because the dude isn't around. She was feeding him his bottle and he started crying. Hailie looked at me and I sighed. I stood up and grabbed him from her and I walked around the house and I walked down to the basement. I sat on the stairs and quieted him down. I wiped my eyes and started tearing up. I balanced my breathing so I wouldn't go up there sniffing. He fell asleep on my chest and I stood up and walked back into the living room and handed him to Kim. I grabbed my keys and walked out. I drove to the hospital and checked up on her. Her favorite chocalate, flowers, and a teddy bear in my hands.
