I wap down the bar again Sighing it was finely closing time a fact I was happy about, I was ready to go home to my girls Sky had moved in a few weeks ago.
She'd made me sleep on the sofa and I was now in the market for a new one bigger. I had never thought of myself as a big man  till I spend a week on that thing.
Scott slams a bottle of scotch down in front of me "come on dude no way your ready to go home yet" he grins and purs two glasses
"I'm not sure dude ... I have to put Grace to bed and it's mine and Sky's date night"
"Come on dude a few drinks you used to be cool"
I roll my eyes and look at the Glass "fine whatever" I pick it up downing it it burns on the way down.

The new fee hour's me and Scott drink and talk about our old life's and what we wanted to happen.
A long time later my phone was dead.
Scott laughed drunkey at something I'd said but I didn't remember what I'd said. "Dude I gotta gooooo, Sky gonna be mad " I stagger to my feet getting my keys
"Dude you think you can drive?"
I nod  staggering to my motorcycle I kick it in gear almost falling over but coach myself driving off

******Skyler***

I Pace back and forth around the living room. I'd put Grace to Bed and Nick hadn't come home last night and he wasn't picking up his cell. I pull my phone out texting him again
***Nick get your butt home!**
I throw my phone on the sofa where Nick's makeshift bed was,
I pull on my hair feeling tears well up in my eyes had he found a different girl because I wouldn't sleep with him. I pace for about 10 more minutes before a knook comes from the front door.
He most have forgotten his key.
I run to the door flinging it open but it wasn't Nick. I feel my heart Drop to my toes my eyes going to the badge
"Ma I'm very sorry " those are the last words I hear before I black out.

***Grace***

I hold piglet tight setting in the heard chair waiting for Daddy or aunt sky to wake up I was scared. The nice nurse keeped giving me cookies but I didn't want them I wanted daddy to wake up. I kick my feet waiting next to aunt Sky's bed. She had fallen asleep and the police had brought us here. I pull blankey out of my bag and wrap up getting warm ..

I wake up to yelling I start to cry waching aunt sky yell at a doctors lady she turns to me fast running over picking me up " it's ok sweety we're going to see daddy "
Daddy! I wiggles around "Daddy Daddy! " She Carry's me to a Glass room where daddy is laying in a bed hooked up to lots of wire's and a thingy was coming out of his mouth he had blood on his face
"Daddy hurt?" I turn to aunt sky, she nods slowly settling me down in a chair

***Skyler***
I can't believe it that stupid Bike we'd joked about him getting killed on it but this.... They told me he hit his head on the pavement because no helmet he'd broken his left arm in 3 different places his right ankle was crushed by the weight of the bike he'd went in to cardiac arrest on the way to the hospital. I walk over and take his good hand his  knuckles where bloodied and bruised alone with the rest of him and he was in a coma they had no idea what caused the wreck.... I let go of his hand turning to the scared blue eyes behind me poor thing ... Was scared to death after everything that has happened to her now this... I walk over and kiss her head. Nick needed to wake up Grace needed him I needed him .

I move our chairs closer to his bed and set down with Grace in my lap wrapping her up in her blacket thankful the police had packed her a bag after I passed out .

***Nick**

Everything was black and cold I open one eye to see light and a face I had only seen in my dreams for over a year  I set up slowly looking around the room I wasn't alone. I reach out and grab Mary Ann's hand it was real I look over to my other side and see my mom and dad and sister, I look back at may Ann "Am I dead?"the words don't sound right to me I should know if I'm dead but I'm not sure this room looks like my room from when I was 3 the same blue walls with the race car border I look down and frown and the same racecar bed .
May Ann touches my cheek "Nick you need to fight this for our little girl, it's not your time yet "
I hold her hand to my cheek kissing her Pam looking over at my family they looked the same as the last time I seen them. I look back at May Ann "is Grace ok?" I feel my heart stop I had done something to hurt her or sky to?
"They're fine Nick....but you need to wake up your not ready "

My older sister walks up to the bed and hits me in the back of the head "Wake up Nick be the dad ours wasn't " I let go of Mays hand and rub the back of my head she had aged sines the last time I'd seen her she was 5 now she looked in her late 20s I look over at my parents they just stand there like picture on the wall not moving. I look at Kate my sister then Mary Ann then I think of Grace and Sky
.....
I needed to wake up but how....
