A year later
Jay was still in a coma. A coma no one really knew when he'd wake up from. Kyle turned a year yesterday.

"Shane! Can you go get Kyle?" Erin yelled

Shane ran back up stairs.
"Hey Kyle!" He started tickling him.
"Mom! Are we going to see Dad?"
"Grayson,Yes. But not right now. I can't..."

Grayson got tired of waiting she grabbed her phone and walked out the door.
"Grayson! Get back in here."

She kept running. Shane put Kyle down and followed her out.
"Grayson,Come on."

"Now you wanna be the one to say anything. Shane! Whenever anything gets bad you run to go see your dad. Shane,I need to see him."

"Gray,I run to go see him because that place is my happy place. I love going to visit and sitting down and talking."

"Shane,Doesn't make a difference. At least you have a happy place. Just leave me be."

Shane let her go. Grayson ran to the hospital.
"Hey Uncle Will! Aunt Nat!"

"Hey Gray. Is your Mom here?"

"No. I ran here.." Grayson walked up to her dad's room. She stopped in front of the window. Paused. She looked at him with the wires hooked up to him and all. She was afraid to walk in... She was scared. She started crying.

She walked in and sat next to him. She didn't talk. She sat there staring at his lifeless body. Every time she went to speak. She burst into more tears. Erin sat in the kitchen feeding Kyle. Shane watched the news, There was a shooting in New Orleans.

"There was a shooting. It killed more than 30."

"Okay Shane."

Grayson sat in the room. She hasn't moved for an hour. She hasn't spoken. She sat there.

"Dad,I am sorry. I am sorry for being a disappointment. I am sorry for everything. I miss you a lot and I want you home. I want you home and alive and playing with Kyle. He got so big. He's a year now."

"Grayson, stop. You are not a disappoint. I love you a lot. More than Owen."

"Uncle Will,it's true."

"No it's not. You are going to change the world some day... I know you will."

"But I have a mother that's a drug addict.."

"You have me and aunt nat and Erin and Your dad."

"Why don't you talk to your dad?"

"I'll tell you.."

"It was 13 years ago. My dad left my mom when I was 16.. Jay was 13. My dad left my mom after he got her pregnant with Your Aunt Gracie. I hated him for leaving.. I hated that we couldn't be a family anymore. After Gracie was born my dad wanted to help raise her. 5 years ago, my mom died.. She passed away from breast cancer. I was devastated. That was when Jay started working in Intelligence. I told my brother to go fuck himself. Because he was acting selfish for when mom died. Tyler, already had his kids. He was devastated. We all were. Jay didn't care. Shane needed his help and he got it. Jay cared but he was caring for Shane and when mom died he flipped out like he did when Kyle died."

"Uncle Will,I think you were being the selfish one."

"Gray,I know. I was."

Grayson looked over at her dad and started crying. "He doesn't deserve this. It isn't fair to him."

"No one deserves anything."

Shane decided to go visit him. He put his headphones in and started running. Like he said visiting his dad made him happy. It's his happy place.
"Hey Dad,It's been a year since I have seen you.. I know. It's been a while. I just couldn't come see you not like how you are. Dad,I need you to wake up and see how big Kyle got. He's now a one year old and he's just like Shane." She chuckled.

"He'll wake up Grayson. Soon. Hopefully."

Adam watched Brynleigh play as he sat down on the couch. She just turned a year old the other day and He was so excited his little girl was a year,but mostly sad since he didn't want her growing up. She stood up and took her first step.

"Kim,She just took her first step." Brynleigh fell down and started crying. Adam picked her up,and snuggled with her until she fell asleep for her midday nap.

Kim walked out of Brynleigh's toyroom she just finished picking up her toys. "Who knew a one year old could have that many toys."

"She's daddy's princess." Adam gave Kim a kiss.

"I know and she's our spoiled princess." Kim smiled

Erin fed Kyle then picked him up and started rocking him for a nap.

"Mom,I am gonna go visit my dad then go visit Uncle Jay. Bye Kyle." Shane kissed his forehead then hugged Erin.

"Alright. Do you need a ride, I could put Kyle in the car and take him to visit his Daddy." Shane smiled

"Okay." Grayson stood up in the hospital room and started walking out the door.

"Gray,before you leave I need you to watch Owen for Nat and I."

"Yeah. I'll watch him, where are you two going?"

Grayson smiled "We are going to dinner." Will smiled as he started out the door

"I'll just meet at your house."

Shane ran to the hospital, it had been a year since Jay slipped into a coma and Shane hasn't gone and seen him. He walked into the room and stood at the foot of his bed, He felt a tear trip from his eye he wiped it off.

"Hey Uncle Jay,It's Shane and I miss you a lot and I really want you to wake up. Kyle is a year old and Grayson and I are going to graduate in two years. But we know you'll wake up before then. I miss you and I talked with a recruiter. I wanted you there but you weren't. I guess I'll see you again someday. Maybe tomorrow maybe next year maybe in heaven. Anyways I love you and wake up soon for us." He wiped a tear from beneath his eye and walked out of the room..

"Hey Shane!" said April

"Hey!" Shane walked over to the front desk where his family was.

"How's Kyle?"

"Great. He's doing good." Shane walked out the hospital and walked to his house.

"Mom,Are you home?"

Erin walked out of Kyle's room.

"Hey,where's Grayson?"

"She's babysitting Owen for Aunt Nat and Uncle Jay." Shane ran up to his room and stood by the dresser he had a picture of him and his dad. Then one of him Mikey and Grant standing in the snow. Then another with Jay. He wiped a tear from his face as he picked up the photo of him and his dad.

"I miss you a lot. Dad.. You should be here looking out for me but don't worry Uncle Jay is doing a great job."

He kissed the picture then put it back on the dresser he played down on his bed and took out his phone. He had four missed calls from Grayson.

"Hey Gray,what's wrong?"

"Um nothing just this guy is following me. Also Morgan wanted me to tell you to answer your phone."

"Alright. I will. Take care. Call Uncle Kevin or Grandpa."
