Emma got quietly out of her bed, careful not to wake Manny. She didn't want
Manny to come with her. Emma grabbed a jacket and crept downstairs. She
looked around the corner into the living room just to make sure that no one
was there. She opened the front door quietly and walked onto the top step.
Emma was careful not to slam the door. She walked down onto the sidewalk
and set off at a run. Emma reached the hospital ten minutes later. She
walked inside and right to the elevator. Emma hoped that there would be no
one blocking her way to Sean.
She got off on the fourth floor and fortunately there was no one that stopped her. When she reached Sean's door, Emma hesitated to go inside. It was only a dream right? It didn't mean anything! But Emma had to know the truth and what Sean thought about her dream. Emma entered quietly, closing the door behind her.
"Emma?" Sean's voice said from behind her. "Oh!" Emma jumped. "I didn't think that you would be up." she said. "What are you doing here?" Sean asked, "It's the middle of the night." "I know. I wanted to see you. Actually, I needed to see you." "Okay..." said Sean, confused, "what's up?" He was getting a strange-scary vibe from her. "Something wrong, EM?" "Yeah," she replied, "I had a dream." "Um...okay?" Sean wasn't understanding what the big deal was, "And...?" "Sean, it was about you and me." Now he was becoming really nervous. He took a deep gulp. "Okay. What about us?" "Actually, it was more about you and Manny." "What?" He was really confused.
Emma then let it all out. She explained every little detail that happened and what was said. By the time she was done, Sean had a stupefied look on his face. He didn't get why Emma was so worried about a dream. Emma waited for his reaction. "So..." Emma said, looking straight into his eyes. She was looking for the slightest bit of unfaithfulness. But she didn't see any; all she saw was his gorgeous eyes. "So...?" Sean said back to her, "So what? EM, it was a dream. I don't know why you're so worried." "Sean, I want you to be completely honest with me. Have you ever had any feelings for Manny, other than friendly?" Sean's facial expression showed his disbelief. "Sean, it was just a question." "Emma! No! I barely know Manny. Besides, I love you remember?" Emma loved hearing him say that. Her face broke into an embarrassed grin. "Emma," he went on, "don't worry so much. I love you and nothing or no one is going to change that."
Emma wrapped her arms around him. When she let him go, she was positively giddy! Sean was so perfect, she thought. Then, another thing that had been bothering her popped into her head. "Sean," Emma said, "have you ever felt like I am trying to change you in any kind of way? I mean, you know that I love you for who you are right? Because if you have ever felt that way I'm sorry." "EM," Sean said firmly, "I know that I can always be myself around you. That's why I love being with you. If anything, it would be me changing myself for you? You know, improving myself." Emma was confused. "What do you mean?" she asked. "It's like this. I am always trying to be the kind of guy that you deserve. I've been trying to make myself into a better person for you. I guess you could say that you're my inspiration to do anything. Do you get it now?" "Yeah." Emma replied, "I think so." "Okay good. Is that all that was bugging you?" "Yeah. I just really needed to talk to you. Thanks." "Anytime." Sean said. He gave a loud yawn. Emma knew she should get home and let him rest. "I need to get home. Besides, you need sleep so you can leave." She ran up and gave him a hug and a kiss.
All Emma had been planning for was a little peck goodbye, but that wasn't what Sean had been thinking of. They went on for about a minute until Emma finally got next to him on the bed. "Sean." she said, pulling away, "I need to go." "Just stay a little longer." "Oh...okay." Emma said, smiling. Sean pulled her closer again and put his lips against hers. To him, this was bliss. He didn't want her to leave ever. Emma never left the hospital that night. Both her and Sean fell asleep on the little hospital bed, heads resting on one another's.
