The next day.

''I am driving to the shop for a second. I will get some food and snacks for tonight, it is a fifteen minute drive, I will be back within an hour.'' She said then and he nodded, slowly and she kissed him before walking away.

In the car she sighed, not sure if he was even happy. He was still smiling at her but that didn't tell her everything. She still loved him just as much but that he would feel better soon….at least that was the doctor had said. He got so down from time to time and he was so tired. He didn't understand is own emotions and she wasn't sure how she could make him feel better if he didn't even understand how he was feeling and she didn't want to keep explaining everything when he didn't understand what to do, not because she didn't love him, but because it seemed to hurt him if she had to help her.

In the shop she bought vegetables and ingredients for her favorite pasta so he could help her with cooking. It was similar to what they had made last week so she wouldn't have to explain much. Maybe that would make him feel better. She also bought some ice cream as dessert and drove back then.

''I am back.'' She yelled as she walked inside. He was nowhere to be seen and she looked around, as he was not on the porch either and saw he was on the small pier by the lake.

She saw him sitting on the pier, really sad and slowly she walked his way, sitting down beside him.

''What is wrong?''

He just shook his head, looking over the water and looking at him, she saw he had been crying because the skin around his eyes was so red and she laid her head against his shoulder.

But then he got up and limped to the house. She looked on the water, sure that he was not okay and sat that he could not tell her what was wrong. She knew that everything was so hard for him and that he was so confused and he didn't know what was happening to him, but it still made her sad that he could not talk to her, that he didn't knew what to say.

She walked back to the Cabin, Matt asleep, curled up on the bed. At first she wanted to wake him up and ask if he wanted to help her, but he was so tired all the time she didn't want to do that. She started to prepare dinner and was so excited for him to taste it as it was a dish she had learned from her mother but didn't cook very often as it was a lot of work but hoped that he would love it. She sat the table when he slowly walked into the kitchen.

''Sit down, I made dinner.'' She smiled and he sat down as she was filling the plates and walked to the table.

''it sm-smells amaz-zing.'' He said then as she put the plate down and she smiled.

''My mom taught me this, I hope you will like it.'' She said as she sat down and he took a bit.

''I d-do. Really g-great.'' He smiled but then he seemed really down again and they kept on eating. She waited for him to say something but he was not saying anything.

''I f-feel l-like I am r-ruining you li-life.'' He admitted then and her mouth fell open.

''How can you say that.''

''you lo-love work-king and I am j-just d-dead weigh-ght to y-you.'' He said then and she shook her head.

''I love working but I love you a lot more, you know that. You are not dead weight and I know it is hard but don't give up. It will all be okay. I am sure of that.'' She said then and he nodded slowly.

''I know it is hard right now but you are still you and I love you.'' She said then and she held his hand and kissed him on his forehead.

''You will get all the help from me you need but if you don't want me to help you, I won't. I just want you to feel good, but if you can talk to me.'' She promised then and he nodded slowly.

''I w-wish I c-could t-tell you wha-what the prob-blem is but I d-don't k-know what t-the Proble-em is. My m-mind and bra-ain are one b-big voi-void.'' He said then and she nodded.

''I really want to help you, I love you and I will give you all the time you need. I know you will get better. It will all be fine.'' She smiled and he wanted to believe her, but he wasn't sure if he could. They finished dinner and he got up then, so tired.

''I am s-sorry, I am go-going t-to be-bed.'' He said then and she nodded, a little disappointed as she had expected they would still have a nice evening together. But he did look tired, exhausted by all the emotions raging through his head and she nodded and kissed him.

''I will join you later, but just go to sleep.'' She said then and he walked to the bedroom, holding on to the wall as he walked because his back was hurting really bad and Gabby slumped down on a chair. She was not mad at him but somehow she had hoped that this holiday would bring them closer instead of letting them fall more apart.

Matt laid in the bed, sad and trying to sleep. But the words that Hallie had said to him when he was deep in the coma, kept going through his head and was all he heard now. Maybe she was right and Gabby couldn't be with him now he was like this. Softly he started to cry and he hated how he could no longer talk about his own feelings and communicate. He missed being the funny, social man he was and how Gabby had grown to love him but the void in his head made it so hard on him. He knew he was making it hard on Gabby as well. Softly he started to sob, not being able to sleep, so sad about being such a burden on her.

Gabby walked back to the living room, letting Matt sleep and sad she sat down on the couch, taking the ice cream, eating a little as she curled up, not knowing what to do to make him feel better. Softly she started to sob as well.


NOTE: Matt and Gabby are still at the cabin and Gabby went out to get some groceries, but found Matt really down when she got back and he couldn't talk about it. After sleeping a little they had dinner and while Gabby thought it would be great, she thought that they would have a nice time together but Matt finally told her one of the thoughts going through his mind and he is scared she deserves better than him and that he is not good enough anymore. He went to bed really early and Gabby felt really upset after that, scared she could not make Gabby feel better.
