WEDDING RECEPTION

"I cannot believe what I am seeing." Clay Spenser said as he sat at the table with Jason, Emma, Ray, Naima, Jameelah, Trent and Brock. "Sonny Quinn married." Emma giggled from beside him and shook her head, the rest of them nodded along with that statement.

"If anyone could tame the beast, it's Lisa Davis." Emma said, jokingly. Everyone watched as Sonny and Lisa danced their first dance together. As the song finished, they invited everyone to the dance floor.

"You want to dance?" Clay said Emma as he got up from the table.

"Yeah, I'd love too." Emma said as they moved to the dance floor. The song playing was Lee Brice 'Rumor', which was completely appropriate for Sonny and Lisa.

Ray and Naima joined them on the dance floor, as well as other couples that were there.

Jameelah stayed with Jason and the rest of her family watching her parents, "Uncle Jason, I don't feel good."

"What's wrong, Meelah?" Jason asked as he pulled her into his lap.

"I just don't feel good." She answered in a small voice.

"Do you want Uncle Jason to hold you and you take a nap?" Jason asked and she nodded.

Clay and Emma danced a few more dances until both were tired. They walked back towards the table, where Ray, Naima, Trent and Brock were sitting and Lisa and Sonny were standing, talking. "Where's dad?" Emma asked looking around.

"He went with Jameelah to get her something to drink."

"Okay, well, I'm getting tired. Clay offered to take me back to the hotel." Emma said as she reached to hug everyone.

"Yeah, you did get in early this morning. Thank you for coming and I hope to see you soon, Em." Lisa said.

"Will you guys tell dad?" Emma said and everyone nodded. Clay and Emma said their goodbye's as they left.

"How are you feeling, Mee Mee?" Jason asked his goddaughter as she took a sip of her drink.

"I still don't feel good, Uncle Jason." Jameelah said

"Why don't we take you over to your mommy and daddy?" Jason asked as he moved them towards Naima and Ray. As they reach them, Jason began to tell them that Jameelah isn't feeling well, when Jameelah collapsed on the floor. Jason, Naima and Ray all rushed to the little girl, while Sonny and Lisa dialed 911. Within 10 minutes, the ambulance was there and taking Jameelah, Ray and Naima to the hospital.

"Where is Emma?" Jason asked Sonny as he looked around for his daughter.

"She said that she was tired and Spenser took her back to her hotel." Sonny answered and Jason nodded.

"We should call them, Son. Jason why don't you go ahead to the hospital and we will meet you there." Lisa said as she reached for her pocket book to get her phone.

"Good idea. Thanks." Jason said as he moved out of the reception hall and into the parking lot.

Sonny called Clay while Lisa called Emma.

CLAY's APARTMENT

The only thing that could be heard was light moaning inside the apartment. It was dark except for a small lap on the side table that gave off a romantic glow. Clay's shirt was laying on the floor beside the front door while Emma's purse was thrown carelessly on the coffee table. All of a sudden, both Clay and Emma's phones rang. Emma and Clay pulled apart and each reached for their respective phones. Emma got up, her dress half pushed off her body, showing her body from the waist up. Clay was shirtless and his pants upbuckled as he reached for his phone.

"Hello." Emma said as she tried to fix her dress and her voice.

"Em, it's Lisa. You need to get to the hospital, Jameelah collapsed during the reception and she is there with your dad, Ray and Naima. Everyone is on there way to the hospital."

"Oh my god, okay. I'll be there soon. Does Clay know?" Emma asked as she saw the look on Clay's face, who she assumed had just got the news.

"Sonny is on the phone with him now.

"Okay, I'll call him to come pick me up and we'll see you guys there." Emma said goodbye to Lisa and waited for Clay to get off the phone from Sonny.

"Sonny, Emma's calling me, probably to pick her up to take her to the hospital, I'll see you there." Clay said as hung up.

"We need to go to the hotel, so I can change into something other than my dress." Emma said as she began getting her stuff together. All she could think about was getting to the hospital and being with Jameelah.

"You have a pair of clothes here from the last time you were in town." Clay said as he pulled her into his arms. He knew that she wanted to get to her favorite niece.

"I hope she's going to be okay." Emma said as she buried her head in his chest.

"She will be. Let's change and go see her." Clay said as they both moved towards his bedroom.

Emma and Clay arrived at the hospital twenty minutes later to be met by every member of Bravo except Ray and Naima, who were in the back with Jameelah.

"Have you heard anything yet?" Emma said as she moved towards her dad. Everyone nodded there heads back and forth.

"Nothing yet." Everyone took a seat and waited for news. Brock and Trent sat beside each other across from Jason and Mandy. Emma and Clay said beside Jason while Sonny and Lisa sat beside Mandy. Blackburn was leaning against the wall beside Trent. Thirty minutes later, Ray and Naima entered the waiting room, everyone jumped up.

"The doctor said that he would be out in a moment." Naima said with a quiver in her voice. All the women moved to her and they hugged while the men all placed there hands on Ray's shoulders. The doctor came out a few moments later. "What's wrong with her?" Ray asked.

The doctor that had been with Jameelah since she got there had brought a colleague with him. He introduced him and allowed his colleague to take over.

"Maybe we should talk in private." The doctor said as he looked around at all the people.

"No, they are our family. They need to hear this." Ray said and Naima nodded.

"Jameelah has AML which is Acute Myeloid Leukemia. AML is a type of leukemia that is not found often in children, as a matter of fact it is very rare for children Jameelah age. There are several different treatments that work for AML. Chemotherapy is probably the most common but survival rates are significantly higher if there is a bone marrow transplant. The best matches for bone marrow transplants are parents or siblings." After a few more minutes of discussion, Ray and Naima made the decision to get tested to see if they could be a match for bone marrow. All of Bravo and their families also volunteered to get tested in a effort to save one of their youngest family members.

"Naima and I are going to stay the night. Is it possible for RJ to stay with one of you?" Ray asked and Jason said that he would take the little guy for as long as they needed.

"We will be back tomorrow to check on you guys." Emma said and everyone nodded their agreement. Everyone walked out of the hospital and to their respective vehicles. Clay and Emma climbed into his truck and Clay turned to her. "Do you want me to take you back to the hotel?" Clay asked and Emma looked at him with tears in her eyes. "I don't want to be alone." She whispered and Clay nodded, grabbing her hand and driving towards his apartment.
