Hi guys so here's the third chapter to "Fight For Us". I have been busy all summer getting ready for field hockey and college so I'll try and update as much as possible but it might be like two to three weeks between each update. As always thanks for reading and thanks for all of the positive reviews. I truly appreciate all of the support.
The next few days were filled with stress and impatience. Andy had stayed at the hospital the whole time while Sam was in the induced coma. She hadn't slept or taken a shower in four days. Sam was making progress but still wasn't awake. The doctors had taken him out of the coma but he was still recovering. Oliver had kept her company but had to go home to take care of his children.
Andy was sitting in Sam's room by his bed and was trying to get comfortable as she would be in there all day. She took Sam's hand and held it in her own. All of a sudden her exhaustion had caught up with her and she dozed off. She woke up a couple hours later to one of the nurses checking on Sam.
"Sorry to wake you sweetie but I just have to check on him because I'm going off duty in a couple of minutes."
"It's fine, I just needed to get a little bit of rest."
"Honey, you need a lot of rest. You have been by this man's bedside ever since he was allowed visitors and you have rarely left. You are very loyal."
"Well, I guess I need to be since this is the man that I love and want forever with."
"That's nice that you have found someone that you feel that way about. Those types of loves are very hard and rare to find in this world. Officer Swarek is lucky to have someone like you to watch over him."
"Yeah, it took us awhile but I guess we are finally getting are chance at forever."
"Well I'm so happy to hear that there is still people in this world who can find a love and treat it like it actually means something and not just a spring of the moment type of activity."
"Thanks for that, I just hope he wakes up soon. I don't think I can be apart from him any longer."
"Honey, I know that this isn't proven yet but in most cases that I've seen a lot of people talk to their loved ones in comas and it actually speeds up the recovery and waking up process. Give it a try when I leave."
"Talk to him about what?"
"Try and have a normal conversation that you would have with him face to face. You could read a newspaper or just tell him a story about your life."
"Ok. I guess it wouldn't hurt."
"I'll be done in a few minutes and then I will be out of your way."
A couple of minutes later the nurse left and it was just Sam and Andy in the hospital room. Andy didn't know what to say and just felt like what she was about to do was so out of her comfort zone. I mean she could handle the talking part but she really didn't believe that Sam could hear a word she was saying.
