<span style="font-style: italic">Matthews grandmother stood there hidden by the shadows. She was watching the man in the black suit. Watching him to fight him against taking her grandson. It wasn't his time. SHe wouldn't let him take him. Every time the male went to touch him she'd made a type of dome cover Matthew. It hadn't lasted long but it had worked. He had made Matthew's heart stop for a moment but they had brought him back. She didn't like the overzealous male. Didn't like him at all. Her gaze shot to the cat man who walked in. Like the other? Were they related? She didn't know but she stayed quiet and unseen. She moved to Matthew when the man moved away from him. Stroking his hair lightly. "Grandma's here baby..." She whispered lightly. Knowing his mind was in a coma but still talking to him anyways. She just knew he could hear her. She watched secretly the interaction between cat and bird. Tensing when the birdman flew out of the area. She became solid. "That man has been watching Matthew since he came in. He made his heart stop for a moment there. They brought him back. I did what I could to keep him away. Matthew's my baby you see. I'm the only real family he has."<br/><br/>She stroked Matthew's hair. "What did my cruel son do to you this time little Matty?" SHe asked in a concerned voice. "Worse time yet..." She said in a sad voice. Shaking her head. She looked to Jin. "I asked a man like you to protect him in my stead. As a ghost I can't do too much. I just want him to have a chance...to be happy." She said softly. "Its what I want as his grandmother." She went to stroking Matthew's cheek. "He has been in an out of the hospital for one reason or other since he turned one. When he learned to say no is when the true hell began. Its sad to know my own flesh and blood would hurt a child they brought into this world. His mother's just crazy you know. She has a bit of an excuse. My son...he is just a sadist." She shook her head. "This is the worst time yet. I helped him through learning to cut. Kept him from going to sleep. He used to do it too deep. He has had more encounters with death in his seventeen years than anyone else on the face of the earth does in ninety or more. Are you here to help Matthew too cat man?" She fell silent as Matthew and Viola came into the room. Watching him with a sad smile on her face. Turning insubstantial again.</span><br/><br/>Matthew looked at Viola and smiled grimly. He could not really smile when he was in so much pain. He turned his palm to facing her palm and encircled her wrist with his hand. Looking at her and nodded his head. Blinking a bit and looked sad at her words. "Its a bad sight...I'm sorry." He said softly. Not liking that she was going to break down over him. He bit his lower lip. Blame the one whose life hurt him? It would be only too easy to do that but he would still feel it somewhat his fault because it had been verbally beaten into him it was his fault all this happened. "It was my own fault for staying away from home so long." He said softly. Running with her when she took off running. He watched the whole scene that played out. Blinking in surprise when she said fiance. That was not what he had been expecting her to say. Yet it made perfect sense in his mind.<br/><br/>He practically flew through the air when she suddenly took off running again. His ghost body lifting up and getting some air time before he managed to get to walking again. Apparently gravity didn't effect you when you were dead...ish. He saw her father and walked into the room with her. Looking pained when he saw himself. He let go of her wrist and walked over to himself. "It hurts. I can still feel it even though I am not awake. My whole body hurts. They said my ribs were shattered. That my lungs aren't working on their own." He bit his lower lip. "They said that my skull got cracked a bit. Explains why I can't wake up I guess. They were saying all sorts of things. I didn't like any of them yet I couldn't make them stop talking about it." He looked at himself. "If I go back in I'll feel all of the pain tenfold right?" He said. Not sure he wanted to go back in. "Even if it will wake me up the injuries are so fresh...I'm afraid to go back. It will be worse pain then I feel now." He shook his head.<br/><br/>"I want to wake up to be with you guys but...that pain. It throbs through me even now." He sighed and went to hugging Viola as she touched his hand with her cheek. "Don't cry Viola..." He said. Trying to make her feel better. "I'm afraid that if I wake up I won't remember you. I need you to find out what all they think is wrong with me. I know it'll be hard but...I want you to explain to me in laymans terms whatever they tell you." He said. Looking at the ventilator. Then to Jin. "Am I able to go back? Will my body let me back?" He asked softly. Taking Viola's cheeks in his hands. "You give me light when I'm afraid...I just wanted you to know that Viola." He kissed her cheek lightly. Sitting down beside her. Laying his head on her shoulder. He didn't see his grandmother but she was still there. Smiling as she saw her grandson with a bit of happiness even in a time as bleak as this.
