2 weeks later

Matt got up out of bed, surprised as Gabby was already in the kitchen to make breakfast as he had a day with his doctor ahead and then with his therapist. They still had to drive back to Chicago and he knew he had to hurry. Quick he walked to the bathroom and got showered, really quick and walked back to the bedroom then, grabbed some clean underpants and looked for his jeans.

''Matt, are you awake yet?'' Gabby asked as she walked into the doorway.

''I am g-getting d-dressed.'' He smiled and she nodded and walked away, smiling happily because he was managing to get dressed on his own now. It still took a while and he only wore easy clothes, but it made him feel happy because he didn't need to ask for Gabby's help anymore, except for his shoes.

After getting his jeans, a t-shirt and his vest on, he walked to the kitchen.

''Ready for today?'' Gabby asked with a smile and he nodded and sat down by the kitchen table and she got down on her knees and tied his shoelaces, as he still didn't have the coordination and to do that. He also still struggled with his mind but he also got better slowly.

''I w-will learn it s-soon again.'' He said then and she laid her hand on the side of his face and kissed him on his forehead; ''it is fine…I love tying your shoelaces.'' She said then and walked back to the furnace, took their omelets off and they had breakfast.

They drove in the car to Chicago then and he suddenly looked at her as there was something he wanted to tell her and he hoped she thought the same.

''W-want to move b-back to Chi-Chicago.'' He said then and she smiled.

''Really?''

''Y-yes it is t-time to move back.'' He smiled then and she kissed him.

''That is great, then we are going back tomorrow – we are staying in Chicago tonight – and then we take all our stuff back tomorrow.'' She said as she already know they were expected to come at Molly's tonight because they had arranged a late birthday for Matt.

He nodded and she was happy they were going back to the city, if she said it, it meant that he was feeling better himself too, otherwise he wouldn't want to go back yet.

She brought him to his physical therapist at the hospital and read a magazine in the waiting room, as she didn't want to be watching him because he would get so nervous of that.

Matt was working with the therapist on his running, as he was still struggling with that but it was getting better.

''Come on, we are going to your doctor. '' She said then as he was ready there and they walked to his neurologist although his own was still gone and he was not looking forward to meet with the uncaring doctor again, but it didn't matter, he was just glad they were moving back to the city.

After that they went to his therapist and he talked with the therapist again for an hour and the therapist also helped him with his speech. It was nice that somebody helped him that well and he knew Gabby had arranged it and it was another thing he was so grateful about. She did so much and he was not sure if he could ever fully make her feel his love, how much he loved all that she had done for him.

They had dinner together and he looked at the menu.

''Can you make a choice?'' She asked then and before he could get upset – he started to know himself well enough again that he would get upset at these moments and he didn't want that so he put the menu down.

''No.'' He said then and Gabby nodded and made a choice for him. They had dinner together and went to molly's and he frowned as the lights were out and he doubted if they were open but Gabby was taken him here and she had his arm around him as she opened the door and it was dark, when the lights suddenly lit the bar.

''Surprise!'' He suddenly heard as he walked inside.

''What is t-this?'' He asked surprised.

''Just your late 30th birthday celebration.'' Kelly smirked as he laid his arm around his friend, although is already been weeks ago it had been his birthday, but he had been in the coma.

Gabby helped him unzip his jacket and he smiled, as it was something he could not figure him out yet but she helped him where needed.

Surprised he looked as there was a table full of gifts.

''We heard you are moving back to Chicago and we got you some gifts to make it easier on you….and some new things for in your home.'' Herrmann said and Matt started to unwrap the gifts. There was a car so he could use the trains for free and he could go to his therapist on his own in a while. There some decoration and accessories for their home and there was a drawing.

''I made it.'' He heard behind him and he saw the little girl he saved before, that had caused the fall and he felt so relieved to see her again, it felt good to see her again because she was alive because of him and even though he was sad how it had messed him up, eh was glad she was awake.

''You are old now.'' The girl smiled then, mischievous and he smirked.

''Yeah, I a-am.''

After that, they sat down around the bar and Matt felt so happy to be around his friends again.

''When you are back in Chicago, we can train together again.'' Kelly said then and Matt nodded.

''Yes, I w-want to get in sh-shape again.''

''And you will very soon.'' Kelly smirked and Herrmann handed Matt another glass of water and Gabby popped up behind him and laid her arms around him from behind.

''You need to take your pills.'' She whispered then and she handed the and he took them, swallowed them and she sat down beside him then with some wine.

''Cheers, on you, sweetie.'' She smiled then and everybody raised their glasses.

''On my b-belated 30th b-birthday.'' Matt said, raising his glass and feeling so happy, as everything was finally looking up again.


NOTE: We jumped ahead two weeks in time and Matt got up out of bed himself and got dressed himself as things are finally getting a little better and they went to Chicago. On the way Matt told Gabby he wants to move back to Chicago and she agreed and they are moving back because he is doing better now and eh had therapy all day, but then in the evening it turned out his friends were hosting him a surprise party for his belated birthday that he missed while being in the coma and they had so much fun and things are finally looking up again.

Upcoming: Matt and Gabby move back into their apartment in Chicago and they have a family party, but Matt is too nervous to go.
