"mustang , I've got it. You need to take it easy."
"I'm just getting a cup of water Damon . I'm allowed to walk. The doctor said I could."
"I know but you don't have to since I'm here. I'm not going anywhere."
"But I need to walk. I'm so tired of sitting."
"Then lay down."
"Damon…"
"Emily ."
"Ugh fine. At least let me go to the bathroom."
"Give me a second. I'll help you get there."
"No. I am walking to the bathroom myself" she says standing up making her way to the bathroom. He follows her with his eyes, making sure she is ok and that he doesn't to rush to go help her.
He puts her water on the coffee table and goes to stand in the hall way to wait for Emily. When the bathroom door opens, he gives her a small smile. She just shakes her head at him. She starts to walk but then stops and grabs her head.
"Emily, baby, are you ok?"
"My head hurts." She leans up against the wall and slides down the wall so she is sitting. Damon sits down next to and pulls her to him.
"I've got you baby. You're alright. We'll sit here until you are ready."
Tears begin to fall down her face. She had began to feel weird while walking to the bathroom but didn't want to say anything because she was too proud. She thought she would make it back to the couch but she just couldn't make it.
"Can you carry me to the couch?" she asks through her tears.
"Of course baby."
He stands up and gathers her into his arms. He lays her down on the couch and makes sure she is comfortable. Then he stands up and begins to walk away.
"Damon, where are you going? I want you to lay with me."
"I need to make sure no one from work calls so I don't have to leave you. I'm also texting Sasha and saying no practice tomorrow. You are staying home to rest."
"Oh. I love you."
"I love you more."
