Chapter 9

Steve returned to his house to find Michael and Danny sitting on his couch. He was so thankful for his best friend and how he was always there for them. Valentine's day was just a week away and Steve hoped that Lauren would wake up in time for it. It was supposed to be their first Valentine's day as a couple. He was clearly not expecting this.

"Did mommy wake up?" Michael asked Steve.

"Not yet buddy. She will wake up soon." Steve said to him. He hated not being sure about if she was going to wake up or not. It felt that he was lying to Michael since they did not know what was going to happen to Lauren.

"Are you sure?" Michael asked him.

"Yes buddy." Steve said to him. He had to admit that he was unsure on how Michael was going to react about his mom being a coma and that they did not know when she was going to wake up.

Danny left the house to give both Steve and Michael some time alone. Danny knew that this was hard on Steve and then to add in Michael was extremely hard for him. Danny had made sure to tell his friend that he was there for him.

Five days before Valentine's day

Steve was still having a hard time being a somewhat father figure to Michael. He could tell that Michael missed his mom and Steve had to admit that he was missing her too. He did not know if she was going to wake up or not. After work, he went to see her. He had managed to get her some flowers for her room.

"Hey Lauren, I want to make sure that you have a good update on Michael and how things are going with him." Steve said as he sat down in the chair. "He's awesome and staying at my house. I'm getting a glimpse of what it would be like if we are going to be a family one day."

Steve was in the middle of taking when she started to move her hand. He hadn't noticed until she had opened her eyes.

"Hey beautiful. I am going to get your doctor and be right back." Steve responded to her as he stood up and walked away from her room.

Steve was gone for no more than two minutes when he came back in with the doctor. Steve was saddened to hear that some coma patients have moments where they wake up and go back to their comas.

The next morning

Steve headed into work to find the governor waiting for him in his office. Steve walked in there to find out what the governor wanted.

"What is going on?" Steve asked his boss.

"I heard about your girlfriend, commander. I was a little surprised that you are here and not at the hospital with her." The governor said to Steve.

"Sir, she's currently in a coma and the doctors know to call me if there is something going on with her." Steve responded to his boss.

Steve watched as the governor left the office. He knew that Danny had told him about Lauren. He walked out of the office right as his cell phone started to ring and it was the hospital.

Steve couldn't get there fast enough. He was so worried about her. He barely got in the parking lot when he turned off the engine and opened the door. Steve rushed into her hospital room and found her wide awake.

"Oh thank god that you are awake. You had us all worried about you." Steve revealed to her with a smile. He was so happy that she was awake that he didn't even notice her facial expressions of him.

"Excuse me but who are you?" She asked him.

"I'm Steve. Your boyfriend." Steve said to her. He really didn't understand what was going on with her but it made him worried about her. "Do you not remember who I am?"

"Not really." She responded to him.

"Do you remember your son?" Steve asked her hoping that he wouldn't have to tell Michael that his mom didn't remember who he was.

"I have a son?" She asked him. Steve looked out the corner of his eyes to find that Danny had brought in Michael.

"Yes, you do." Steve said as he moved his hand to get Danny to stop where he was. "Can you excuse me for a moment?"

"Sure." She responded to him.

Lauren watched him as she walked out of the room. She was surprised by how he was answering her questions.

Steve watched her as he walked over to Danny and Michael. Michael knew his mommy was awake and didn't give Steve a chance to tell him what was going on with his mom. Steve noticed that Michael had closed the door. Michael opened the door about five minutes later and was crying. Michael ran over to him.

"She doesn't remember who I am!" Michael said as he wrapped his arms around Steve.
