(Okay! Do we want to roleplay over that time or skip soon?)

Sarah opened her arms for Jamie.

[bibliophile;]

(I think we should skip, but it's up to you.)

Jamie hugged her. "Are you okay?"

[twofrogsinacoat]

(Okay good, I was hoping you'd say that. ^^ I think we should skip.)

Sarah hugged him back tightly. She exhaled shakily. "No. But this isn't about me."

[bibliophile;]

Jamie sighed. "Let it out," he said.

(You wanna start?)

[twofrogsinacoat]

(Sure!)

Sarah tossed and turned for what felt like the millionth time. The hospital couch was so uncomfortable. It had been two long months since JJ had slipped into his coma, but she still hadn't given up hope that he would eventually wake up. In fact, she'd spent the night with him in the hospital nearly every night since he'd been admitted. The hospital had been kind enough to provide her with a small couch to sleep on, and it had been moved into JJ's room so she could stay close. She hardly did anything anymore; she just didn't have the energy to do anything.

JJ's condition fluxuated a lot in two months. One week, he'd be doing great, the next, they didn't know if he'd make it. These past few days had been good ones. Tonight, while Sarahbtossed and turned, low moans rumbled in his chest.

A low moan from across the room ceased Sarah's movements completely. Her eyes flew open and she shot up from the couch, rushing over to JJ. She grasped one of his hands tightly in hers, suddenly alert. Hope flared in her chest. "JJ? Jayje, baby, please, if you can hear me, do something. Squeeze my hand, wiggle your toes, make a noise. Anything," she begged him. All she wanted was JJ back.

JJ fell still for about a minute, then he squeezed her hand weakly. He let out another short, low noise.

Sarah gasped, tears springing to her eyes. "Oh God." More hope flared in her chest and she hit the call button for the nurse quickly, but kept one of her hands in his. "Come on Jayje, stay with me, okay? Squeeze my hand again if you can."

[bibliophile;]

He squeezed her hand again. The nurse ran in
"What is it?"
