A/N: I will be uploading a new chapter every other week on Friday. This is only so I can juggle between this and my other story. Even though Ib isn't very popular and not many will read the fictions, I still enjoy all the reviews and support I've gotten for this. Thank you! DISCLAIMER: I do NOT own Ib!

Chapter 4: Walking to the Café Part: 1

My eyes flutter open from another good dream and I feel an arm draped over my side. I turn my head and look up at the face of my boyfriend. Garry still asleep has a smile plastered on his face.

Gurgle….
My arm wraps protectively around my stomach.
When did I get so hungry… Well I guess I didn't eat any dinner and all I had yesterday was macaroons… and Garry's lips… At the thought of Garry's lips my whole face goes red. Idiot… Why did I have to think about that!? I wonder if he hates me for taking nine years of his life away… Nine years of sleep… Garry…
Gurgle…
GAH! I need food…

I pull his arm off of me and head over to my bag. I grab a light blue summer dress, white leggings, with lace at the bottom, which cut off right above the knee, and a red rose pin out of my bag. I check to make sure Garry is still asleep and to my surprise he still is. I quickly pull my pajamas off and throw on my dress and leggings. I then pin the red rose just below the right strap and throw my hair into a ponytail held by a purple hair tie. I push back some of my bangs and add a red heart clip to keep it in place. Perfect. When I turn around I see Garry pawing for the warmth of my body. Knowing that he is going to wake up soon I sit on the bed and wait. Still pawing for warmth he finds my hand and pulls me close to him. I yelp and his eyes open quickly. "Ib, are you alright?"
"Yeah you just scared me…"
"Oh..." He looks down and sees that I am now clothed in a different outfit.
"I'm going to grab some breakfast across the street. Want anything?"
"Yeah. What restaurant?"
"Hmm I haven't thought of that… I could always run down to the café."
"Café food sounds nice."
"Donuts, cake, pie, cheesecake, anything in particular?"
"How about some macaroons?"
"We still have some left over though."
"Fine, then I'll get some cheesecake and a latte."
"Sounds good to me. What type of cheesecake?"
"Chocolate cheesecake."
"Ok. I'll be back soon." I sit up and kiss him on the cheek. As I slip my black flats on and head out the door Garry calls out to me. "I love you, Ib."
"I love you too, Garry."

I'm about to leave the hospital, with my long ponytail irritably thumping on my back, when the doctor who told me about Garry's disability bumps into me. "Oh I'm sorry." He looks down at me. "Oh you're that Ib girl."
"And you are the doctor who almost ruined my day yesterday." I snap at him I then cover my mouth with shock.
I can't believe I just said that!
It's true though, he almost ruined my day yesterday. If he hadn't kept his big mouth shut I could have had Garry tell me and not a fat ass doctor.
"I'm sorry." He just apologized to me. He shouldn't be apologizing to me…
"What?"
"I'm sorry. I should have let Garry tell you. I was only doing my job, I should have refused." Is he reading my mind? "Go ahead you have the right to take him out of the building."
"Again what?"
"Take him outside, he needs the fresh air."
"Really!?"
"Yes, there's a wheel chair behind the chairs." Out of the blue I give him a big hug.
"Thank you!" I release him and take a step back. "Thanks to you Garry and I became a couple."
"Oh I see." He rubs the back of his head, he must really be nervous. "Now hurry up before you are gone for too long." I nod and rush back to the room.

Garry's PoV

Ib closes the door and I listen to her foot steps down the hall until I can hear them no more.
Nine years… Nine years… Holy shit… Nine years in a coma… I shouldn't be complaining though, I'm with the girl I love after all. It's like fate. Like God wanted us to be together. I'm happy I saved Ib from that car.

The door swings open and Ib greets me with a big smile. "Time to go!"
"What?"
"You heard me! GET. UP!"
"B-but Ib I can't move my legs."
"At least sit up!"
"Ok Ok!" I sit up. Putting my hands under each leg I throw them over the bed and start to stand up, or at least try to.

Ib's PoV

I grab the wheel chair from behind the chairs and unfold it. I look back and see that Garry is trying to stand up. "Garry!"
"I got it! Calm down!" He starts to stand up slowly. That's when I rush over. I push him back down. "NO! You aren't ready yet! You just woke up yesterday and you already think you can walk?!"
"Shut up Ib! I can do this" He stands up and moves his leg a half step before almost falling. I catch him and stand him up straight. "DAMN! You are really heavy!"
"That or you are too weak." I glare at him.
"Now put your hand on my right shoulder." He does as told. "Good. Now move your right leg forward." He doesn't budge. "Hmm… Can you balance yourself?" He lets go of my shoulder and stands up straight. "Good." I grab the blue slippers sitting in the drawers. "Now try balancing one leg." He balances perfectly on his left leg and I slip on the right slipper. "Now it's going to get a bit harder. Balance on your right." He does as said and slips a little. I slip on the left slipper quickly and he puts his weight on both legs. "Ok. So far so good." Keep your balance and if you feel like you are going to fall put your weight on to me. I push him forward with ease. I let go and put the wheelchair behind him. I help him sit down and I put his feet up.
"So where are we going?"
"To the café!"
"Sounds good to me."

I push him out into the hall and quickly over to the receptionists' desk. "Garry did you know the doctor's name?"
"Doctor Marshall."
"Thanks" I look towards the lady behind the counter. "Excuse me ma'am." She looks up from her computer.
"I have been given permission from Doctor Marshall to bring Garry outside. He's only staying here for physical therapy."
"Go ahead."
"Thank you." I walk out and in to the light and fresh air.
"It's so different…" I look down to see Garry is crying.
"Garry… If it's too much I can bring you back in…"
"No let's go."
I kneel down beside him and give him a quick hug and a peck on the cheek.
