Spencer X Reader (part 2)

8

The nurse explains his situation. She tells you that he's in a coma and you have to wait to see if he wakes up.

Spencer is pale, hooked up to machines.

You sit next to the bed and touch his hand. He's cold.

You can't imagine your life would be without him. You knew him for 15 years. Your kids would be crushed and you would be a single mom.

You're in shock.

You're mom calls and you pick quickly. You ask her how the kids are doing, she told you that they were still asleep. You told her to not tell them anything until you know what will happen to him.

She asks how he's doing.

You manage to mutter out through your tears, "I don't know if he's gonna make it, mom. He's so pale. That's not my Spencer."

She's comforting you over the phone.

You tell your mom that you love her and goodbye, then hang up the phone call.

You silently cry into your hands.

You look up and touch his hand, "Spencer, please. Please wake up. I didn't mean anything I said."

You try so hard to get out the words but you are so distraught that you can barely hold it together, "I love you so much. This is all my fault, I needed to get you help instead of kicking you out."

You examine all the things he's hooked up to.

He has a tube down his and he connected to so many wires. The constant sound of the air coming in and out of the tube is haunting you.

He's starting to gain his color back.

You can't bare to see him laying on the bed.

You can't stop crying so hard. It's cold in the hospital room, you've always hated hospitals.

You look out the door, there's a bunch of commotion. Nurses and doctors are walking down the hallways, sick people are getting taken in and out of the hospital.

You wish you could take Spencer out of here, you fucking hate seeing him here.

You lean back in your chair and try to catch a breather. You wipe your tears on the collar of your shirt.

You rise up and grab a tissue to blow your very running rose then toss the tissue in the trash. A doctor walks in shortly after, you jolt up quickly.

He tells you that he doesn't know if Spencer is going to wake up but he does have a chance.

He gives you an optimistic explanation of everything that you have to expect.

If he does wake up, he could have brain damage or he could have amnesia.

You look at Spencer as he's explaining every possibility. You want to cry but you keep your composure and listen. You know the probability of him waking up and being fully fine is very low.

The doctor asks if you would like for them to resuscitate him if his heart stopped beating.

You sign a paper that says to resuscitate him. The nurses come in to change out his fluids and some of his stuff up.

You step out of their way as they do.

You can't stop thinking about what you're gonna say to the kids. You don't want to worry them but you don't know what you could say to explain why he isn't home.

You decide you're gonna stay in the hospital with him for a while so you need to get showered and get clothes.

You get up and exit the hospital.

You call an uber and they drive you home. You get out and go into the house.

Your mom is watching tv with the kids in the living room.

You sneak upstairs and pick out some clothes. You hop in the shower and get dressed quickly in an outfit. You go downstairs where your mom is waiting for you.

She gives you a hug.

"Did you tell the kids anything?"

You two whisper to each other so that the kids can't hear.

"I told them that you and him had to run some errands."

"I don't know what I'm gonna do if I lose him."

"I'll be here with you to help you take care of Matthew and Kate," she rubs your arm.

"It's-"

You get cut off by Kate running into the hallway. She sees you and gives you a hug, "mommy!"

"Hey sweetie."

"Where were you?"

"I was just running some errands."

"Where's daddy?"

"He's still out. But he'll be home soon okay?"

"Are you gonna leave again?"

"Yeah, I might."

"Can you stay and watch tv with us?"

"Uh, sure."

She grabs your hand and walks you into the living room where Madi is sitting.

"Scoot over, Matthew!"

You want to correct them for misgendering her and using her dead name but you want Madi to come out to them herself.

You sit down next to Kate.

Your mom comes in with a cup of coffee for you. You take it and sip it. The kids are watching a crime show.

You loved crime shows growing up.

You are really anxious because you want to be there for any new news about Spencer but you didn't want to worry the kids.

You decide to sit and watch tv with them for a while then make up some sort of excuse.

"I'm gonna go get something eat from the kitchen, do you want anything?"

All of them say no but Madi says she wants a gatorade. You get up and grab a small snack from the kitchen, you haven't really ate anything so you're finally glad to get something in your stomach.

You take something sweet from the cabinets because you can tell your sugar is low.

You grab a gatorade from the fridge and go to walk into the living but you hear your phone ring.

You pull your phone out and its a number you don't recognize.

You answer it anyway.

"Is this Y/N Reid?"

"Yes, who is this?"

"This is Dr. Williams from the hospital that your husband is admitted at. I have news."
