The next morning, Emma woke up before Sean. She checked her phone and smiled because it was only 6:30. She caressed his face until he woke up.

"Good morning."

He smiled but didn't open his eyes, "Good morning. What time is it?"

"Just after 6:30."

"Oh?" He opened his eyes and squinted, "Why are you up so early?"

"I guess I couldn't wait to wake up." She reached down and untied his pajama pants.

"Em, what are you doing?"

"Me?" Emma reached into his underwear, "Nothing."

Sean groaned and said, "That's not nothing."

"I just thought we could have some fun before we have to get ready for work." She kissed his neck as she moved her hand, and Sean smiled.

"I have no problem with that."

"Good." She pulled away from his neck and kissed her way down his body.


After Sean and Emma had their fun in bed, they had more fun in the shower then got ready for work.

"I had a great time last night and this morning."

Emma smiled at Sean and said, "Me too."

Sean buttoned his shirt and walked over to Emma, "And I'm sorry about the past two days. It's why I want to keep my apartment for a while. I don't want Drew to see me like that."

Emma nodded, "I understand. I just wish you could have told me about this beforehand."

"I wanted you to think I had everything under control. It's embarrassing to still be affected by stuff that happened nearly 10 years ago."

"Sean, it's okay that you don't have everything under control. You're human." Sean nodded and Emma tucked his hair behind his ear, "I love you and I want to help you."

"Thank you."

Emma kissed him and smiled. "So how does your day look?"

"I should be in the office most of the day. Lots of paperwork. How about you?"

"There's this one house I'm this close to selling." She continued, "If I do, it will be a great commission."

"Oh yeah?"

"The sale price is $4.8 million."

Sean whistled and said, "Wow. That's expensive."

"It's a gorgeous house."

"What would your commission be on something like that?"

"Around 240."

Sean's eyes widened, "240 thousand dollars?"

Emma nodded, "A few commissions like that helped me get this place."

Sean looked around and smiled, "This is a great house."

Emma smiled, "It will be even better when you're here all the time."

"I know." Sean kissed her, "Soon, I promise."

"I wish you could come with me and see this house."

"Oh?"

Emma nodded, "Yeah, it's incredible."

"When are you showing it?"

"I have an appointment at 11:30. Want to meet me during lunch?"

"Sure." Sean smiled and said, "This must be some house."

"It is." Emma grabbed her work bag and said, "I'll text you when I'm nearly done with the appointment."

"Sounds good." Sean smiled and said, "Let's go downstairs and see our son."

"Okay." She kissed him quickly and walked over to the stairs. Then she stopped, looked at him and said, "I'm not sure I've loved you more than I do right at this moment."

"Really?"

Emma nodded and walked down the stairs.


Emma texted Sean around 11:20, "The couple coming to see the place had to cancel and reschedule for tomorrow so you can come over whenever you want."

Sean read the message and said, "Okay, give me 20 minutes." Sean put his phone in his pocket, stood up, grabbed his coat and walked into the shop, "Hey Pete, I have to go help Emma with something, I should be back by 1."

"Okay, boss."

Sean walked out to his truck and texted Emma, "Leaving right now."

Emma looked at her phone and smiled.


When Sean pulled up to the house, the size of the house surprised him. It didn't seem like a house that should be $4.8 million but he figured the neighborhood it was in probably jacked up the price.

He walked up to the front door, knocked and waited for Emma to answer.

"Hi, Mr. Cameron. I'm glad you could make it." She held out her hand.

Sean smiled, shook Emma's hand and said, "Thanks, I'm really excited to see this house."

Emma opened the door to let him in and closed it. "This is a six-bedroom home with five full bathrooms and two half bathrooms. It's 5,548 feet and the asking price is $4.298 million."

Sean looked around and nodded, "Very nice. It didn't look that big from the font."

"They built onto the back of the house and have utilized both the basement and the third floor."

Emma took him on a tour of the whole house as if he were a client and Sean played along.

When they made it up to the master suite, Sean looked out the window and whistled. "You were right. This house is incredible. Can you imagine having enough kids to fill all the bedrooms?"

Emma laughed and said, "Five kids? That's a handful."

He looked at her and smiled, "I know."

"Did you want a big family?"

Sean shrugged, "I don't know. I'd love to have three. That seems like a good number."

Emma smiled, "You're a great father, Sean."

He smiled.

"You really are. Drew loves you."

"Like I keep saying, once I'm disciplining him, he won't like me so much."

Emma shook her head, "Sean, you're his hero. I think he'll actually listen to you more than he listens to me."

"I don't know about that. I guess we'll see."

Emma walked up to him and wrapped her arms around his neck, "I will make us all a nice dinner tonight."

"Are you sure? Don't you have a lot of work after this?"

"Yes, but I want to spoil the two guys I love the most tonight."

Sean smiled and kissed her. When he pulled away, she had a mischievous grin on her face. "What's that look for?"

"Oh, nothing."

She kissed his neck and Sean asked, "Em, what are you doing?" She didn't answer him, she kissed him and Sean laughed into the kiss. "Em." He pulled away, "We can't do anything here, can we? What if someone comes by?"

"The people selling this house are in a rental, the couple who were supposed to come by aren't coming by and we have an hour to be naughty."

"You're really horny lately."

"In a few days, we won't be able to do anything."

"Oh! So you're horny because your period is coming."

"Horny and hungry."

Sean laughed, "Well, okay, right now I can help you with one of those."

"Good."


Afterward, Sean and Emma were standing near the master bedroom entrance. Sean joked, "Okay, so we've had sex where I work and where you work."

Emma laughed as she straightened herself up.

"It was pretty hot."

"It was pretty hot." She helped him button up his shirt, "I can't wait until later on tonight."

Sean raised an eyebrow, "Oh yeah?"

"After our family dinner and after the child goes to bed, I'm going to take advantage of you again."

He smiled and said, "I have no problem with that."

Emma looked around and made sure everything looked the way it did before they had their fun.

Sean looked around the room and said, "I never realized how expensive Toronto was until I tried getting my first place."

"Yeah, some of the homes here are way overpriced for their size. It's really about the location a lot of times."

Sean nodded and smiled, "Okay, I need to head back to work."

Emma smiled and said, "Sounds good, Mr. Cameron." She grabbed his hand and walked him down the stairs to the entryway, "We'll be in touch."

Sean grabbed her and playfully bit her neck. Emma squealed and he pulled away laughing, "Yes, we'll definitely be in touch." He kissed her softly and said, "See you later."

Emma smiled and said, "Yep."

"Bye."

Emma watched Sean walk to his truck and shut the door. He waved and pulled away from the curb.


Drew was sitting in Mr. Del Rossi's class waiting for the bell to ring so he could hang out with Oliver during their free period. He was staring at the clock and when the bell rang, he shot up out of his seat.

"Drew, can you stay behind for a moment please?"

Drew rolled his eyes out of Mr. Del Rossi's sight, turned around and walked over to his desk. "Is everything okay Mr. Del Rossi?"

"Yes, everything is fine. I just wanted to say how much I enjoyed reading your paper."

"You did?"

He nodded, "And I'm glad you're getting to know your dad."

"You knew him, right?"

Marco laughed, "I certainly did. Seeing you every day takes me back to my days as a Degrassi student." Drew nodded. "Anyway, I'll be giving everyone their papers back tomorrow. And you have nothing to worry about. It's your best grade of the year."

Drew smiled, "Really?"

Mr. Del Rossi nodded, "Really. It was excellent. And now I'll expect that level of work from you for the rest of the year." He grinned at Drew and Drew nodded. "That's all I wanted to say. Keep up the good work."

"Thank you." Drew turned around and walked out of the classroom.

Oliver was waiting for him, "Is everything okay?"

"Yep." He looked at Oliver, "Would you want to come to my house for dinner?"

"Tonight?" Drew nodded and Oliver said, "Sure. We can study for the math quiz."

"Ugh, that's right. I almost forgot about that."

"I'll text my mom and tell her I'm going over to your house to study and have dinner. She shouldn't have a problem."

Drew looked at Oliver, "I have to go and call my mom. I'll meet you in the library."

"Okay."

Drew walked to Archie's office and the school secretary greeted him.

"Hi, Drew. Is everything okay?"

"Yes, I just need to call my mom."

She turned the phone to him, "Go right ahead, Principal Simpson is in a meeting."

Drew nodded, "Thanks." He dialed Emma's cell and waited for her to pick up.

Emma looked at her phone and said, "Oh no. What did he do now?" She answered, "Dad?"

"No, it's me, mom."

"Oh! I thought you were grandpa. Is everything okay?"

"Yes. Everything is fine. I was wondering if Oliver could come over for dinner tonight. We have a math quiz to study for and I figured he could stay for dinner."

Emma smiled and said, "Of course! He's more than welcome to come over."

"Great!"

"I'll be by to pick you both up at 4:15."

"Okay, thanks, mom."

"You're welcome. See you later."

"Yeah, bye." Drew hung up the phone, "Thanks."

"You're welcome. Did you need to see the principal?"

Drew shook his head, "Nope." He turned around and walked towards the library.


Emma texted Sean, "Drew is bringing a friend home for dinner."

Sean wrote back, "This is a good thing, right?"

Emma laughed and wrote back, "This is a very good thing. I'm going to pick them up at school, bring them home and start cooking. They have a quiz to study for."

Sean read the text and said, "Do you need me to get anything?"

Emma thought about it and said, "Nope I think we're all set. What time do you think you'll be home?"

Sean wrote back, "6-6:15."

Emma wrote back, "Perfect. See you then."

Sean wrote back, "Okay. I love you."

Emma wrote back, "I love you too."

Sean smiled and turned his phone over. He only had a few more receipts to work on before he could go around the shop and check on everyone's work.


While Drew and Oliver waited on the front steps of Degrassi, Drew said, "Before we go to my house, I have to tell you something."

"Okay…"

"My dad will be there."

"Your dad?"

Drew nodded, "Remember the guy who saved my mom during the school shooting all those years ago?" Oliver nodded and Drew continued, "It's him."

"The guy who looks like you?"

Drew nodded, "Well, I look like him but yeah."

"Wow, this is major."

"Yeah."

Oliver asked, "Is he cool?"

Drew smiled, "He's very cool. He's a mechanic who owns a shop that mods cars. I went into work with him the other day and one of the guys was working on Randal Grichuk's car."

"No way! That's really cool."

"Yeah. So I didn't want you to be surprised when he walked into the house."

Oliver laughed and said, "Yeah, thanks for the warning. That would have been a big surprise. So he really is a cool guy?"

Drew nodded, "He took me to a Raptors game and got all the players to sign a jersey for me. He modded Kyle Lowry's car."

"That's amazing!"

Emma pulled up and smiled at the boys. They got into the car and she said hi to Oliver, "It's good to see you, Oliver."

"It's good to see you too, Ms. Nelson."

She looked at Drew, "So how was school?"

"Fine."

"Good." She looked at them both and said, "Seatbelts." They complied and she pulled away from the curb. "So what are you in the mood to eat tonight?"

Drew shrugged and said, "How about some pasta?"

"That's fine. I can do that."

"What time will dad be home?"

"He said between 6 and 6:15."

"Okay."


Emma was busy cooking and looked at the microwave. It was 6:10. She called the boys down from Drew's room and asked Drew to set the table.

"Your dad should be home soon."

"Okay."

Emma looked at Oliver, "What would you like to drink, Oliver?"

"Water's fine. Thanks."

Drew walked into the kitchen, "I'll get it."

Emma continued to cook. "Dinner will be ready in a few minutes."

Drew was setting the table when he asked, "Is Aunt Manny joining us?"

"No, has other plans."

"Oh okay."

"Did you tell Oliver your news?" Drew looked puzzled and she said, "The news about the basement!"

"Oh, right!" Drew smiled and said, "I'm getting the room down in the basement for my birthday."

Oliver said, "That's amazing! You're lucky. I'd give anything to be far away from my dumb parents."

Emma giggled in the kitchen. She looked at the microwave again and thought to herself, "Maybe he's just running late."


Jay pulled up to Cameron's Custom Cars and said, "Oh good, he's still here." He got out of his car and walked up to the front door which was ajar. "Sean?" He stepped inside and walked towards Sean's office. "Cameron?" He looked in and saw Sean's feet sticking out from behind the desk. He jogged over and Sean was lying there unconscious and bleeding from his head, "Sean!" Jay looked around and noticed the safe was open. "Fuck." He dialed 9-1-1 and told them what he walked in on. Jay checked to see if Sean was breathing and he was. He knelt next to him and said his name again, "Cameron, come on man, wake up."

After a few minutes, Sean stirred and groaned.

"Oh my God, thank God." Jay looked down at him, "Sean, can you hear me?"

He groaned and put his hand to his head, "Yeah. What happened?"

"That's what I was going to ask you."

Sean tried to sit up but couldn't.

"Stay there. Don't move too fast." Jay grabbed a shammy and held it against Sean's head.

Sean said, "Call Emma."

"I will, I promise." Jay took Sean's phone from his pocket and dialed Emma.

Emma picked up her phone and said, "Let me guess, you're running late?"

"Em, it's Jay."

"Jay? Why are you calling on Sean's phone?"

"Okay, Emma, I need you to stay calm okay."

"Jay you're scaring me. What happened?"

"The shop was robbed, Em. I found Sean on the floor in the office bleeding from his head."

"What? Oh my God! Did you call 9-1-1?"

"I did," Jay heard the sirens blaring, "They're on the way."

Sean tried to sit up again.

"Cam, man, stay still so EMS can look at you."

Emma yelled into the phone, "Is he conscious?"

"Yes, and he's a little confused."

"Oh my God. Tell me which hospital they're bringing him to."

Jay said, "Okay. Hold on."

Drew looked at his mom, "What happened to dad?"

Emma held up her finger, "Jay?"

"Yeah, Em, they're coming in now."

"Okay." Emma started pacing and Drew watched his mom become unglued.

"Mom?"

Emma looked at Drew and said, "Go up to your room right now. Bring Oliver with you. Please."

Drew nodded. "Come on." Drew reluctantly climbed the stairs with Oliver trailing behind.

"Em, they're bringing him to St. Michael's."

"Okay. Thank you. I'll meet you over there."

Emma ended the call with Jay and immediately called her mom. Christine picked up and said, "Hey there, everything okay?"

Emma cried into the phone, "Sean was robbed at the shop, Jay found him unconscious in his office and bleeding from his head. Can you come here and watch Drew and his friend so I can go to the hospital?" Just then Manny walked in. "Wait, mom, hold on." She looked at Manny and said, "I thought you had plans?"

Manny looked at Emma and could tell something was horribly wrong, "Em, what happened?"

"Sean's shop was robbed, he was unconscious and bleeding and Jay found him. They're taking him to St. Michael's."

"I'm taking you there right now."

Emma asked, "What about Drew?"

"Where is he?"

"Upstairs."

"Tell your mom to come here. I'll tell him to expect her." Manny jogged up the stairs to Drew's room.

Emma asked, "Mom, can you come here?"

"Of course sweetie. I'm already on my way."

"Thank you." Emma ended the call and looked around. She shut off the stove and Manny met her downstairs.

"Drew and his friend are going to stay put."

Emma nodded.

Manny held out her hand, "Give me your keys. I'm driving."

Emma nodded again and grabbed her phone.


As they were putting Sean on the stretcher, he handed Jay the keys to the shop, "Lock up for me."

"You got it, man."

Sean asked, "Emma?"

"She's on the way to the hospital."

Sean nodded.

They wheeled him out of his office and Jay put Sean's phone in his pocket along with his own phone. He locked Sean's office. Then locked the shop.

Jay got into his car and followed the ambulance to the hospital.
