Are you guys ready for this? I don't think you're ready for this. Take a moment.

~Wake Up~

The doctor knocked on Kellin's door lightly before he just walked in and I kissed Kellin's cheek before I stood and met him halfway.

"Mr. Fuentes," Doctor Ross said nervously. "We need to speak about Kellin's condition."

I nodded and crossed my arms, "What about?"

"Well, it's been over a year, you need to make a choice. We can't keep him here any longer, we need the room so you'll have to either just pull the plug or move him somewhere else. Pulling the plug might be the best route to go too."

I shook my head and grabbed onto my own arms so that I didn't punch the fucking idiot in the face.

"He's not dying Ross, I'm not about to lose him. Kellin will wake up soon."

"Mr. Fuentes, you really should just let him go, this isn't good for either of you."

I shook my head profusely, "How about I just fucking pull your plug then? It's obviously not doing you any good! It'd be fast, I'd make it so painless it'd just be like you were going to sleep too. Because from what I'm seeing, Kellin has more brain activity than you! I'll be moving him to a long term facility tomorrow," I spat angrily, ignoring Mike who in the background was trying to get me to shut up. "Now get the fuck out."

Dr. Ross nodded and ran out of the room with his tail between his legs and I turned to Mike.

"He's going to wake up, as soon as Kellin's ready he will wake up. I just know it." I said staring straight at my brother.

The next day I had Kellin taken to our home and set up our bedroom as an at home hospice center with an around the clock nurse to take care of him.

"I love you so much Kitten," I said quietly, brushing my fingers through his hair and out of his face. "You'll wake up soon my darling, you have to. Because, if you die, I die too baby." I told him and leaned down kissing his face sweetly.

"I miss you so much Kitten, it hurts so much that you're not here with me. I don't have anyone to rant to about how much I hate seriously everyone but you. I mean Mike has moved in and I think I'm going to kill him in his sleep, he's so annoying and he gets curious about what I'm doing." I told him and took his limp, slightly cold hand in mine. "I'm starting to think everyone just thinks I'm going crazy, Peoples is letting me stay on leave until you wake up and I can hear Tony and Ariel whispering about me sometimes too."

"But, I'm not crazy. You're going to wake up soon," I said 100% that I was right, Kellin was going to wake up eventually. He had to. "Do you remember that one time a few years ago, it was right after I got you back from Jesse the second time and you were so irritated with me for leaving you with your real family?" I asked, chuckling a little at the memory. "After we fucked, you tried to force me to sleep in a different room and then pouted for two days because I wouldn't listen." I continued talking about all of the things we did together for a few more hours before I went to take a shower.

I needed one to be honest, I just needed the hot water to beat on my back and help me relax, I had no fucking idea what to even do at this point. Kellin had been in the coma for a year and a half and there were no real signs that he was going to wake up. Everyone said it'd be any minute now but I was starting to lose hope, which killed me.

If Kellin died, so would I.

"Vic!" Mike yelled just as I stepped out of the bathroom.

"Yeah?"

"Kellin's hand twitched, I think he's waking up." He yelled and my eyes widened as I dropped everything, not even caring that all I was wearing was a pair of jeans as I ran to the bedroom.

"Get out," I told everyone in there and sat down next to Kellin's bed and took his hand as they all left grumbling about me being a dick. "Kitten?" I cooed pushing some hair out of his face with my free hand. "It's okay to wake up now. You're safe."

I sucked in a breath as his eyes fluttered opened slowly and he squinted, blinking rapidly a few seconds before something clicked and he sat up, eyes filled with terror as he started clawing at the tube that went down his throat trying to pull it out.

"Hey, stop, Kellin. Calm down," I told him and put a hand on his shoulder and pushed him down. Once I had him calmed down slightly I removed the breathing tube just like the doctors had shown me and checked up one everything, making sure he was alright.

"Are you okay?" I asked slowly. "Do you know who you are?"

Kellin bit his lip and gave me a terrified look, "M-my name is Kellin Quinn, I-I'm twenty two and I'm my d-daddy's little boy."
