Recovery

Part 5

Erin had gone into Jay's room after she saw Will go home for a bit. She was sat next to Jay and she had a hold of his hand, "I'm so sorry" she cried, "why did you do it Jay, I was coming back to talk to you. I wanted to marry you Jay, but I just I thought I was already about to lose everything"

Erin sat back down in the chair when Will walked in, "What you doing in here Erin?"

"I was just speaking to Jay that's all"

"He's in a coma Erin, it won't matter"

"Of course it matters Will"

"Anyway I thought I told you that I don't want you near him"

Erin stood and looked at Will, "You know I had two voicemails from Jay and the second one he sent me, he said that he has lost you. So why would he say that Will. What happened between you two?"

"Nothing we just argued"

"About what"

"Just him drinking and taking drugs"

"You abandoned him didn't you?"

"I didn't mean it like that but-"

"And your blaming me for this. I may have gone but he still had you here and you threw him out on his ass"

"Yeah because I cared about him..." Will argued back

"I CARE ABOUT HIM TOO!"

"YOU DID THIS THIS TO HIM... YOU ERIN YOU!" Will was walking closer to Erin when Connor came in and grabbed him, "take a walk Halstead"

"What I want to be-"

"Take a walk!"

Will stormed out and Erin sat down in the chair, "You ok"

"Yeah he's just worried like everyone else"

"Just hang in there"

"Wait has there been anything new?"

"No I'm sorry Erin. Whatever he took, it was dodgy real dodgy"

"Yeah thanks Connor".

One week later

After Will and I spoke we managed to come to terms with the fact that all our arguing didn't matter while Jay was still in a coma.

I woke up in the hospital chair and saw Will and Connor, "what's going on?"

"Jay results came back from his latest scan"

"It's bad isn't it?" I got upset

"No they were good. We're gonna try and wake him up today"

"Oh thank god... so he's okay?"

"His scans may be okay but we still won't know what lasting effects this has had on him"

"Okay... yeah I know"

I grabbed jay's hand as Connor and a few other nurses started to take Jay off of the machines. After about five minutes, all the tubes were gone and he looked like Jay again. "It may take some time but this was good. Us managing to get him off these machines is the best thing that could have happened today" Connor left the room and I was left in there with Will.

"Come on Jay... just wake up" I muttered.

"I'm gonna get coffee" Will said walking out.
