Jack POV

Jennifer left the hospital two weeks ago and I couldn't be happier the babies are fine, and I feel that she is beginning to trust me again.

That asshole named Clayton is really starting to get on my nerves, he keeps calling Jennifer, and sending her flowers, even after I kick his ass.

I don't know how he got my number, yesterday he called saying that I would pay for what I did to him, he thinks I'm fucking scared, his treats mean nothing to me. He and Jennifer parents can suck my balls. I won't force her parents to like me.

I asked my agent to get me his file, I'm sure he's hiding something, from Jennifer and I will find out what.

Today is the first time in a long time I feel happy, genuinely happy yesterday Jennifer and I moved in to my new apartment, I wanted to take her to my old house but I could tell she wouldn't feel comfortable living at the same place I was staying with my ex.

Every night I lay next to her in bed I just stare into her eyes, wishing that the moment could never end, wishing that my tired eyes won't close so that I can just stare at her for as long as I can muster, it's weird I know.

I just feel like I can't live without her anymore.

I tried to ignore Jennifer rustling of sheets as she turned on the bed not being able to sleep, it was three am and I was sleep deprived she kept moving, pulling, pushing and It was getting on my last nerve. I finally gave up opened my eyes slowly, and put my arm around her.

"Did I wake you up?" She says in a whisper.

"How can I sleep when you won't stop moving? I swear I can tell how many times you moved that bedspread." I sit up and get out of the bed to see her seating on the bed caressing her belly she looked up at me and smiled.

The look on her eyes was like pleading me not to be mad at her. How can I be mad at someone like her?

I took deep breaths to calm myself down, I sat in front of her and rubbed her thigh. This must be her pregnancy.

"What's wrong? What's on your mind?" I asked her.

With a teary eyes she shook her head "I'm sorry I'm such a wreck."

I laughed a little and placed my hand on her stomach. "Yea eventually you'll drive me nuts."

"I used to drive my parents to nuts too when I was little, I guess that's why they became so strict with me." She says rubbing her eyes.

"So how did they deal with it?" I would do anything to help her even if it meant that I would have to go to Macdonald again for the third night.

" No need to bring that up, I know you are getting tired of me, my foolish cravings and all, I'm sorry."

"I'm fully awake now babe tell me what you need." I smiled and caressed her cheeks.

She looks at me hesitating but eventually sighed she looks down at me "I- I want to eat two Big Mac with two large fries."she says and turns away embarrassed.

"Okay just try to get a sleep, I will go buy now, I grab her face and kiss her on the lips." I don't even recognize myself.

She looked at me and smiled. "I love you" she said.

"I love you too." I replied.

What's wrong with me? I stood up and took my car keys and left.

It was almost four in the morning now, the road was completely dark I couldn't see a thing, I was blasting my favorite music.

When I saw a bright light making my eyes to shut, I couldn't see where I was going.

I put on my brakes to stop, but my car kept sliding. I could see that I was about to hit the other car, but I could do nothing to stop. I pumped the brakes and that didn'tt slow me at
all. I just screeched, slammed right into the other car.

I open my eyes slowly and feel my right arm  completely numb and remained bent at a strange angle, I was so dizzy but I tried to studied its shape beneath the leather of my jacket and noticed an odd lump sticking out at the elbow. My arm was completely broken what's worse is that I couldn't feel a thing.

I had no idea what else might be broken, my spine could be damaged, I might have head trauma, all I could think about was my babies and Jennifer.

I felt my heart pounding and heard a roar in my ears, and then the terrible sound of grinding metal as my bumper tore into the drivers door. My head smashed forward and I felt a lot of pain everything was spinning around and I pass out.
