I ended up falling asleep again. When I woke up and felt sore and pain over my body still. I look over and see Sammy asleep on the side of the bed. I took my hand and started to slowly stroke his face. He looked so tired. There were bags under his eyes and I could even see the tension and stress in his shoulders. My poor husband.
After stroking his cheek a few more minutes, he starts to stir in his sleep slowly waking up. He looks up and sees I am awake and does a double take. "You're awake!" He says excitingly.
"Yes why wouldn't I be? I woke up a while ago, fell back asleep, and now I am awake again." I say. Sam grabs my hand and kisses it.
"No baby, you have been asleep for a week. After you woke up the first time, you ended up falling into a small coma from the trauma and stress your body endured." He says tearing up some.
Now I understand why he looks so tired and stressed. "Oh Sam. The baby? Is she okay?" I asked.
"She is perfectly fine and so are you. The healers just said with the healing sedative it just took over plus the stress in your body and kept you asleep until you healed." He says.
"Sam have you slept? Or even ate? I love you more than anything but you look tired and a little pale." I say.
He hangs his head low and sniffles some kissing my hand. I feel a few tears fall from his eyes.
"I tried so hard to stay strong. For you and our babygirl, but I was so scared I had lost you. You are everything to me and the one time I wasn't there for you, you got hurt. All week I missed you so much, you love, your cuddles, your smile, laugh, kisses, and more. I started worrying more and the more I worried the more scared I got of losing my wife and unborn child all because of a leech. I cannot lose you Ocean. I cannot do it. I won't survive. I need you more than you think I do. You hold me together. You make me believe in myself, love me through my flaws, make me a better man, and give me a reason to keep fighting in this world after the childhood and life I had before you. You have changed me for the better and without you, there is no Sam Uley." He says tearing up.
I pull him up to get into bed with me. It was big enough for both of us. He wrapped one around my belly and snuggled his head into my neck near my mating mark to help relax him.
"Sam, right now it is just you and me. No one else other than our baby. You do not have to be strong all the time and keep your emotions built up and hidden away. I will not judge you or think of you any different for letting them out. You are entitled to them and it is just me. Your wife and imprint here just let them out." I whisper softly to him as I run one hand in his hair and the other down his back.
Suddenly I feel wetness rolling down my neck and collarbone. He sniffles more and lets out a small cry holding me tighter but not too tight to hurt me. "I love you so much Ariel Ocean Uley. So much. I never want to know a world where you are not in it. Before you I was nothing and had nothing but with you I have everything. I promise to be a better protector of you. I'm so sorry baby. I'm so sorry this happened to you." He cries into me.
"Listen to me Sam, this is not your fault. You were doing a good thing by helping find someone who was lost even if we do not like this person. You still stepped up as Alpha and led by example. I do not blame you for what happened. Edward must have known we would've been split up so he took his chance. Next time we will be more prepared. I'm okay with not going anywhere outside of La Push without you. Or anywhere without you because I love having or being by your side. Your babygirl is fine, and so am I other than some bruises. It will take more than a petty leech to get me away from you. You are stuck with me Sam Uley. I will never leave you." I say softly still comforting him.
After a few minutes I heard his breathing even out. I looked down and saw him sound asleep. I was able to pull the blanket up over us some and I curled into my husband and went back to sleep for a little bit.
I was woken up a few hours later by the healers wanting to check me over. I saw Sam was still asleep. "Is there anyway of checking me over without waking him or moving him? He finally got asleep and I do not want to wake him up again." I whisper to the healer.
"It's fine dear. He doesn't need to move. I promise."
She began checking over my vitals and the baby.
"Well dear you still have some bruising on your back. Your ribs are almost healed as well so I would like you to take it as easy as possible until your little one is born. We do not want to send you into an early labor. So I am essentially putting you on bed rest. You can get up long enough to shower, or move to a different location of your home. Other than that I do not want you doing a lot of heavy lifting, or other chores that requires a lot of time on your feet and strain on your body." She tells me.
"Okay thank you. When am I able to go back to our home?" I asked.
"Whenever he wakes up." She says pointing to Sam. I nod my head and go back to cuddling him.
It wasn't long until mom and dad came in checking on me. They saw Sam finally sleeping so they didn't stay long. After another hour Sam finally woke up and I told him what the healer said. We spent a few minutes getting ourselves ready to go and say goodbye to my parents before headed back to our home in La Push.
