I wasn't real sure where to go. I mean you're not expected to go back to the hospital to see your "friend", until tomorrow morning. You can't exactly go home, because well your cheating girlfriend is there, probably back in bed with her new sex partner. I passed city limits now, out of Toronto, out of the hell whole. As I thought about it, Ellie wasn't the only one who cheated. Emma kissed me, but it was totally innocent, unlike El, who had sex with a guy other then me. I can't get it out of my head, the sight of them together, asleep, bare naked, and in my own damn bed of all places! How did I deserve this? Why me? Why couldn't it have been someone else? Why didn't I just leave Emma alone? I had to get reattached to her, like I knew I would. Deep down inside me I wanted it to happen. I wanted to be with Emma again, I still want to be. Jay's in jail, me and Ellie are done for good, what should come in the way of it now?

Nothing.

Does it seem too easy?

I didn't know how I ended up here, but somehow I did. I didn't remember much from last night, besides my thoughts on everything. I have no idea where I drove or where I even went. But somehow I ended up here, back next to Emma. She still lay there, breathing ever so softly. I started to stretch, my back was killing me. That's when Carol walked in. She looked at me with a smile; it looked like she had been up all night.

"Morning." She said with a yawn.

"Morning."

She checked the machines next to Emma's bed and wrote down a few things in Emma's file. "You arrived here quite late last night."

"I did?"

Carol nods. "About three this morning."

I look at the clock, it's just after eight. "No wonder I feel like crap."

She shakes her head and grins. "I saw you come onto the floor and you looked like crap."

"Last night just wasn't the best night in the world."

Carol looks at me. "Did she break up with you?"

I sat there not saying anything.

"She cheated on you didn't she?"

I looked at her in surprise. "How'd you know?"

Carol shrugged. "Just a guess."

I looked down at Emma.

"I'm sorry." Carol said.

I shook my head. "It's not your fault, I should have known."

I took Emma's hand, rubbing my thumb back and forth against her hand.

"I'm thinking you're sort of relieved?" Carol asked.

I shrugged. "Kind of."

I felt a light squeeze against my hand. I looked to Emma's face. Her eyes began to open slowly, her brown eyes looking even better then before. Carol and I watched in shock as Emma began to wake up. Emma's eyes looked toward Carol, who smiled in response.

"Hello Emma." Carol said. "Do you feel alright?"

Emma nodded her head. She then turned her head slightly towards me.

"Hey beautiful." I said taking her hand and sandwiching it between my hands.

She smiled a warm smile at me, making me forget everything.

"I'll go get the doctor." Carol said exiting the room.

Emma continued to look at me. "How long have I been asleep?" She asked her voice raspy.

"Long enough." I said. "Long enough."

She was about to say something but I stopped her. "You don't have to talk, wait til your voice comes back."

She nods in response. I lean up and kiss her forehead, her skin feeling warm against my lips. As I sat back down, the doctor appeared with Carol. After about fifteen minutes the doctor left along with Carol following behind. The whole time, Em's fingers were intertwined with mine.

I know the ending sort of sucked...but I needed to finish this up...so I hope you guys enjoyed it...sorry there was a BIG delay! Now that summer is here I'm hoping to write more fan fictions...it will hopefully be easier for me to not delay!
