CRYSTAL I woke up in pain and it was hard to open my eyes. I yelled out for Brooks and he answered asking what was wrong. I told him I couldn't see and he told me to hold on. I heard the water running and then felt a warm cloth against my face. He wiped my eyes and explained my eyes were a little crusty due to crying last night. "Why was I crying and why do I hurt so bad?" "You don't remember?" "Remember what, Brooks?" When he stopped wiping my face I was able to open my eyes and saw I was in the hospital. I freaked out and slung the cover off me and checked my stomach. Brooks told me to relax and said the baby was fine. "What do you remember about last night, Crystal?" "I remember going to Dad's and eating dinner. I was feeling sick and we left to go home. It was raining when we left and… oh my god, Brooks! Is the other driver ok?" "He is fine baby. He had a few scratches but nothing serious. I am fine too. I have a concussion and that's it. You have a broken arm a

BROOKS Crystal has been in the hospital for 4 days now and I decided that I wasn't going to wait any longer to make her my wife. The accident made me realize that I could have lost 2 of the things that mean the world to me and I wasn't going to take the chance that something else could go wrong and I lose her. I called Seth and asked him if his dad would be willing to come down to the hospital and do the honor of marrying us since his dad was a pastor. He told me he would ask him and he'd give his dad my number. After we hung up, I sat back in my chair and watched my soon-to-be wife sleep. She looked beautiful laying there with no makeup on and her hair in a messy bun. Even though she hasn't been able to bathe since the accident, I ensured she didn't smell. I have been giving her a good wipe-down with a washcloth, a pan the nurse gave me for water, and some soap. Her dad and Viola have been taking turns coming up here to watch over her and give me a couple of hours to sleep. The doc

CRYSTAL After the Obgyn doctor examined me, he said that Marvin was looking good and I was clear to leave but needed to try and avoid stressful situations. Brooks got all my things together and took them down to the car while I waited on the nurse to bring my discharge papers. 20 minutes later the nurse came in and went over everything with me and explained that I will need to attend physical therapy sessions starting 2 weeks from today. I thanked the nurse and waited for Brooks to bring the car around. The orderly wheeled me down to the front door and then wheeled me to the car. Brooks helped me into the car and we headed home. When we pulled into the driveway Jonah came out of the house and got my bag from the trunk. Brooks helped me into the house and helped me get into the bed. Jonah came into the bedroom and asked if I was hungry and I told him I was fine. “Baby, you need to eat. You and I haven’t had anything today.” “I don’t want Jonah to have to cook for me.” “He isn’

BROOKS Crystal has been home for 4 days now and she is getting restless not being able to get up and help around the house. I called her doctor and asked if she was able to sit outside for a little while and he said she should be ok doing it just to make sure she didn't try to walk. After I made Crystal's breakfast, I cleaned up our dishes and went into the room and picked her up off the bed. "Brooks, what are you doing?" "I'm taking you outside to sit in the sun for a little while." "I don't think I am supposed to be outside, Brooks." "I called the doctor and asked. You can sit outside but you can't get up and try to walk." "This sucks!" "I'm sorry, baby. I wish I could heal your leg for you." I sat her on the back porch and decided to go ahead and clean the yard up. Crystal thinks I am just giving her time outside but little does she know that my reason for cleaning the yard is because Pastor Lay will be coming in 2 days to marry us. I have already talked to mom, Vi

CRYSTAL I woke up to someone knocking at the door. I looked over to see it was 8:45. I nudged Brooks to wake him up and told him to go see who was at the door. When he came back to the bedroom, He put a shirt on. "Who was at the door, Brooks?" "It's my mom, Viola, and Kinz." "Why in the world are all three of them here?" "They wanted to come see you, beautiful." Brooks left the room and Ashley, Viola, and Kinz came into the room. All three of them had bags in their hands. "Um, Ashley, what are all those bags for?" "Well darling, we brought some clothes over for you to try on. We figured since you were stuck in this room, you might like to have a dress-up day with us." "I can't stand up to get dressed." "We know that silly girl. We are going to show you the stuff we brought and you get to pick which items you like and once we have gone through all of them, Kinzlee can help you try them on and narrow down which you like the best." "Ok. I guess we could do that."
Forever Us Chapter 19
BROOKS Today is the day that I marry the woman of my dreams and the love of my life. I am scared sh*tless right now and even though I already know she wants to marry me, the thought of her freaking out and saying she doesn't when she is supposed to say I do, has me scared. I'm glad she is still on bed rest and has been napping a lot because it's given me time to get everything done and having Jonah and Kinz sneaking around and helping set stuff up. Marvin and Viola will be coming by around 3:00 to start getting the finger foods on the trays and my mom and Ray will be here around 3:30 when they get off work. Jonah and his girlfriend are riding with Kinz and Pastor Lay will be here at 4:30. I decided not to wear a tuxedo today. Instead, I am going to wear black dress pants and a white dress shirt. I told everyone just to wear whatever they were comfortable wearing. Knowing my mom she will be wearing a dress and will be fully dolled up with makeup. Ray will probably be wearing shorts and

CRYSTAL "Crystal, is there anything you want to say to Brooks?" Tears were streaming down my face. "Um. Wow. Well, this is certainly a surprise. Brooks, If you would have asked me where I saw myself today back when we first met, I wouldn't say here. When we met, falling in love with you was the last thing I would have expected to happen. I know we had some issues in the beginning but falling in love with you gave me the drive to push through and work out our issues. You have been my safe place, my comfort, and my peace. Over the past year, I have been blessed to watch you change into the amazing man who stands before me and I couldn't be any more thankful than I already am, that I am the one you want to spend your life with. I love you more than you will ever know Brooks and I can't wait to start our forever." "Beautiful words spoken between the two of you. I can see and feel the love that the two of you have for one another and I am happy to be officiating this union. I
Forever Us Chapter 21
BROOKS It's been 3 weeks since Crystal and I got married and her doctor has given her the okay to get up and move around more with help. We decided not to have a honeymoon until after Marvin is born and is old enough for us to leave him with one of the sets of grandparents. Crystal has been having some pains in her stomach so we have an appointment in an hour with her OBGYN. Once Crystal was ready to go we headed to the doctor's office. There was a little wait but it wasn't too bad. As soon as Crystal was called back the nurse asked me to help her change into a gown so she could be examined. When the doctor came in she started the exam but it didn't take long for her to figure out what was going on. She told Crystal and I that the pains she felt were contractions. She said she was going into early labor and she was 2cm dilated but with how far along Crystal is, that Marvin wouldn't be in any danger of being delivered this early. I asked her what we needed to do and she told me that
