"Ambrose, baby, wake up," Matthew whispered as he gently shook Ambrose awake.Ambrose groaned in response as he covered his head with a pillow. "If you don't wake up, we're going to get an earful from your mother the moment we step out of our car so please get up. I've already picked out your clothes so all you need to do is shower and fix your face," Matthew said.Ambrose groaned louder and finally sat up on the bed. He dragged himself to the bathroom and finally took a shower. Matthew helped Ambrose dry his hair after he took a shower and had to help him get dressed too since the man was half awake the whole time. The color theme for the party was pastel green so Matthew was wearing a plain pastel green long-sleeved shirt and a pair of jeans while Ambrose was wearing a pastel green silk dress that fell just above his knees.Mathew decided to just carry AMrbsoe into the car and the man immediately fell back to sleep as they drove off. Ambrose tends to sleep a lot when he was extrem
It's been a few months and Alana just entered her second trimester. The nursery was set up and everything that the baby needed are already prepared. As for the husbands, they've become much closer and Ambrose has become much clingier. It baffled Matthew at first, but he wasn't complaining. Alana noticed it too and she wouldn't stop teasing her brother for being so clingy."Oh my god, Ambrose, sit down. Your husband was like gone for thirty minutes. They're not going to be back for another half an hour," Alana said to Ambrose.He's been pacing in front of the windows, waiting for Mathew to come back. He doesn't even know why he has become so clingy as of late. He even moved part of his office to Matthew's building because he couldn't stand spending the rest of the day away from him. It even reached the point where he sat on Matthew's lap while he was working. He was bored and had nothing else to do. It was that or they'll end up having sex for the nth time of the day."Am I not allowed
"Why did you lie to me?" Mathew asked Ambrose the moment he opened the door for him.Ambrose didn't sleep, not even a wink, from last night. The bed felt so empty and every inch of his body was craving Matthew's touch. It was torture."Lie about what?" Ambrose asked."When I first asked you when you wanted kids, you said yes. Why did you lie?" he asked.Ambrose didn't know how to answer. He did agree when Matthew asked back then. Maybe it was the pressure coming from everyone else. Maybe because he didn't want to disappoint Matthew. Ambrose just stood there without an answer. Matthew sighed and pushed past him and went straight to their room. Ambrose followed behind him and found him packing up a bag."What are you doing?" Ambrose asked. "I need some time away. I just need to think," he replied."For how long?" he asked.Ambrose could feel his throat closing up as Matthew shoved pieces of clothes, one after another into the luggage."I don't know. Until my head clears, I guess," he
It's been a few months since the accident and Matthew was ridden with guilt. If he hadn't left that day, maybe this wouldn't have happened. He couldn't even bare to see Ambrose in that state. He's been cooped up in his room and neglected his work for months. His father had to take over his businesses and his mother had no choice but to live with him for the moment.He would only eat when he was forced to and Lorraine even had to drag him to the bathroom to take a shower so that she could also change the sheets. Lorraine was starting to get worried about his son. She even suggested that maybe it would be good for him to go visit Ambrose but it just made him break down into tears. Lorraine didn't know what to do anymore. It was taking a toll on her so she just hired a private nurse to take care of him.His phone started ringing so he groggily stood up and grabbed his phone from the nightstand. He looked at the caller ID and saw Drake's name. He sighed and answered the phone."Hey-""You
After being dragged into the bathroom by his father, Matthew's now being bathed like a two-year-old child. Michael was scrubbing his son vigorously since hasn't showered for the past few days. His mother, on the other hand, has offered nothing for comfort, thus sending Matthew deeper into depression."You can visit the babies today if you want," Michael said and it seemed to finally get Matthew's attention."How about Drake?" he asked, the first few words to be spoken by him after a few days."I'm not sure. Maybe he'll be there today too," he replied as he washed down his son's hair.Luckily, Matthew took it upon himself to dry off and get dressed."I should've told him that earlier," Michale muttered under his breath.He almost spent the whole morning dragging his more than two-hundred-pound son into the pond. That is equivalent to a week worth's of workouts. Michael just changed into some fresh clothes and bid goodbye to Lorraine before driving back to the hospital with Matthew. He
Matthew later woke up with a pounding headache. Luckily a nurse was already there to assist him. The nurse handed him a glass of water before asking him how he was. He complained about a headache so the nurse handed him some pain relief. His thoughts quickly went back to Ambrose and he started to panic once again."H-how's Ambrose?" he worriedly asked the nurse."He's stable now. We don't exactly know what caused his seizures but it was the first activity we've seen ever since he went into a coma. It could be a good or bad thing," the nurse replied."So he's still unconscious?" Matthew asked as dread filled his stomach."Unfortunately, no, but I suggest you visit him more often and talk to him. Do you need anything else?" he asked."N-no. Can I see him?" Matt asked."Sure. I'll escort you just in case you feel something odd again," the nurse replied.Matthew carefully got off the bed and followed the nurse as they walked to the elevator. Matthew was placed in the rooms a few floors un
A few more months have passed and Ambrose still hasn't woken up despite being much more responsive than before. Matthew was slowly losing hope and he was starting to accept that Amrbsoe may no longer be part of their life. He was getting overwhelmed with taking care of two infants as well. Melanie, Lucas, and Michael have come over a few times to offer help whenever he had to be present at work.Melanie suggested hiring a nanny but Matthew was scared that he might end up being too complacent with the nanny and slowly neglect his duties as a father. As his work and children became more demanding, he finally caved and hired two after rigorous background checks. Matthew still felt guilty for not being there for his children when he was at work and his coming home when his children are asleep is definitely not helping.On his way home, Matthew decided to quickly visit Ambrose. The drive to the hospital became less dreadful the more Matthew started to accept that Ambrose may never wake up
The next day came and Matthew decided to take a week off so he sent the nannies on a week-long break after today. He wanted to go with their parents to go and visit Ambrose now that he was awake. Melanie also voiced her worries about how they were going to tell Ambrose that his sister is gone. Matthew feels guilt about Alana's death. He kept thinking that maybe Alana was just carrying one child, she may have survived. He's scared that once Ambrose gets caught up with everything, he'll hate him. He already lost him once, he's scared that he'll lose him again once he's fully recovered. Matthew met with Lorraine and Michael in the lobby while Lucas and Melanie already went ahead to Ambrose's room. Ambrose was transferred to a lower floor since he was already awake. Matthew felt some kind of a relief seeing that Ambrose is no longer connected to a ton of wires and tubes.Their eyes met as Matthew entered the room and Ambrose hurriedly looked away with faint blush painting his cheeks. Mat
