Nick leaned against the wall. He saw
Willa sitting there crying and went over to her.
If she dies, it will be on your head, Nick said.
Mr. Carter, Dr. Thomas said.
How is she? Nick asked.
We got her back, but shes on life support, if she goes again, we might not be able to get her back, Dr. Thomas said.
Willa started sobbing. Brian looked at her.
Can I go in there? Willa asked.
NO! Nick said angrily.
Nick, let her go in there, Brian said. Willa went into the room and closed the door and sat down.
Hi Brizee, I know you hate me but you didnt deserve this, you have to live, Nick loves you and needs you, your family
needs you, your son needs you, you cant give up, I dont want Nick back, I have moved on, I was upset when I hit you, I didnt
see you, I swear, I know you think its my fault and I did it on purpose but I didnt do it on purpose, it was an accident,
you have to pull through this, you have a husband who loves you more than life itself, you have a son who needs you, you have
a brother who needs you, you have a family who needs you, you cant leave them, I wish I could go back in time and change things
but I cant, dont give up, Brizee, Willa said. She sat there.
Brizee stood in the room looking at
Willa. Her grandfather was with her.
Brizee, its not your time to go, you are needed here, the family needs you, and Nick and Jason need you, Jack said.
But Paw-Paw, I want to get to know you, Brizee said.
You will, all you have to do is talk to your dad and brothers, they will tell you about me, I will be watching over
you and the family, Jack said.
Hes right, Brizee, Jerald said.
Uncle Jerald, Brizee said.
You can learn about me by talking to Kevin and your aunt, Jerald said.
I dont know if I can go back, Brizee said.
Brizee, you have to, come here, Jerald said. They walked outside the room and saw Nick and Brian. She watched Nick
as he cried.
Nick needs you, look at him, do you want to leave him, after you promised you would never leave him, Jerald said. Brizee
looked at Nick and went back into the room and heard Willa crying.
I guess I have no other choice but to go back, Brizee said. Jack smiled.
Well be watching over you and the family, Brizee, you are needed here, Jack said.
Kevin came down the hallway with Theresa
and Kevy. Nick looked up and got up. Theresa handed Kevy to Kevin and hugged Nick close. Nick buried his face in her neck
and cried. Theresa held him close.
Shh, Nicky, keep praying, Theresa said.
I cant lose her, T, I cant! Nick cried. Theresa looked at Kevin. Willa
came out.
What are you doing here, Kevin said.
I hit her, it was an accident, Nick, shes fine! Willa said.
What, Nick said looking at her.
Shes awake, and asking for you, Willa said. Nick ran into the room and saw Brizee.
Brizee! Nick said walking over to the bed.
Hey, Brizee said. Nick hugged her gently. Dr. Thomas came in.
Mr. Carter, may I check my patient? Dr. Thomas said. Nick kissed Brizees forehead and went back out.
Well, Brian said.
Shes awake, Nick said smiling.
Nick, I am sorry that this happened, but Im glad she woke up, you need her and so does your son, I knew she couldnt
leave you two, Willa said.
Willa, I know you moved on, but if you do it again, accident or not, you will pay, Nick said. Willa nodded and left.
Howie and AJ came up to them.
Hey, whats up, AJ said.
Shes awake! Nick said. Dr. Thomas came out.
Mr. Carter, your wife is going to be just fine, well move her to her own room, Dr. Thomas said.
Thank you so much, Nick said.
You can go in now, Dr. Thomas said. Nick went in and sat down on the bed.
I love you, Nick said.
I love you, too, I told you I wouldnt leave you, Brizee said taking his hand.
Dont do that to me again, Briz, I cant live without you, Nick said. The door opened and he heard the music and Brian,
Kevin, AJ, and Howie came in. Nick smiled and got up and together with the guys, they sung More Than That.
I can see that you've been cryin'
You can hide it with a lie
What's
the use in you denyin'
When what you have is wrong
I heard him promise you forever
But forever's come and go
Baby
he would say whatever
It takes to keep you blind
To the truth between the lies
Chorus:
Oh I will love
you more than that
I won't say those words, then take them back
Don't give loneliness a chance
Baby listen to me
when I say
I will love you more than that
Baby
you deserve much better
What's the use in holding on
Don't you see it's now or never
Just why you can't be friends
Baby
knowing in the end
Chorus:
And I will love you more than that
I won't say those words, then take them
back
Don't give loneliness a chance
Baby listen to me when I say
Hey...
Bridge:
There's not a day that passes
by
I don't wonder why we haven't tried
It's not too late to change your mind
So take my hand, don't say goodbye
I
will love you more than that
I won't say those words, then take them back...
Brizee smiled and Nick came over and
kissed her deeply.
I love you so much, Nick said.
I love you, too, Brizee said. The guys gathered around and
they all talked.
