That morning...
Manny woke up at 9:45. "Emma." She said to see if Emma was awake too. She looked over and saw that Emma was not even there. "Emma!" Manny exclaimed, sitting up quickly. Manny jumped out of the bed and dashed around the house, checking every room. "Oh my god, where is she?" she said to herself.
At the hospital...
Sean lay asleep on his hospital bed. On his right side was Emma. She had spent the night. They laid together, looking so innocent.
At Emma's...
Manny was going out of her mind. Not necessarily with worry, but with confusion. Where had Emma gone? Then it hit her: Sean! Is she wasn't there then Sean might know where Manny could find her. Manny tip-toed down the stairs and out the door. Thankfully, Snake and Spike were both asleep. Manny didn't want Spike to worry about Emma. Manny speed-walked to the hospital. She ran into Sean's corridor and straight into his room. Manny was shocked when she entered. Emma was there, asleep, lying on the bed with Sean.
"Emma! Sean! What are you guys doing?!" Manny exclaimed. They both shook awake. Emma lifted her head and looked around. Panic spread through her as she took in her surroundings. She looked down at Sean and jumped. "Manny, what happened?" "Oooo," Manny said, about to laugh, "you tell me EM. I woke up and you were gone. I came here to ask Sean if he might know where you were. I found you guys sleeping together." Sean wasn't really with it yet. "Who said my name?" He said thickly, not talking or looking at one particular person. Manny rolled her eyes. "Go back to sleep, Sean." Emma said. "Manny, I really don't remember hardly anything." That was a lie. Emma didn't want to tell Manny the reason she had come or about her and Sean's little make out session. "Really, EM?" "Yeah, really." Manny wanted to believe her but she knew that Emma was lying.
"I dunno, maybe I sleep-walked or something." Manny was becoming very critical. Her tone was harsh, "You've never done that before. I've never heard of sleep-walking being a side effect for cancer." Manny said. Sean was up now. "Woah, Manny, you're getting out of line. You don't need to be saying stuff like that." Manny didn't care how much she liked Sean, at the moment he was annoying her. "Sean, mind your own business." Manny snapped at him. Manny was about to reply but Emma interrupted, "Okay...Manny nothing that you're thinking of happened last night. So will you please drop it?" Manny sighed. "Yeah...sorry Sean." "Okay." Emma breathed a sigh of relief. "Manny we should get back to my house." "Whatever." Manny exited. Emma waved at Sean and ran after Manny.
"Manny, wait." "Look, EM, I'm not mad anymore." "I don't care about that. I just want to know why you got so upset. All you did was walk in on me and Sean sleeping. Nothing else." "I know EM...I'm just worried about you. You and Sean just all-of-a-sudden rush into love and I dunno, you guys are just moving awfully fast. And, not to sound like a paranoid best friend or something, but this wouldn't be the best time to get pregnant." "Manny! Sean and I have never even thought of having sex!" "Okay EM."
Manny's mind trailed off to Sean. What a sweet boyfriend, she thought. She hoped that one day a guy would stand up for her like Sean did Emma. Manny heard a faint noise in the back of her mind. It got louder. "Manny?" Emma called at her. Manny had stopped dead in the middle of the street. She hadn't even noticed the five cars from all directions honking angrily at her. Emma ran up and pulled her out of the street. Once back on the sidewalk, Emma asked, "Where's your head?" "Huh? Oh, no where. Just stupid little day dreams." Emma just gave Manny a disbelieving look. "Whatever Manny. You have been really weird ever since we visited Sean yesterday." Had it only been yesterday, Manny thought. It seemed more like ages ago. It felt like so long since Sean had embraced her in his powerful arms...
What am I saying(!?) Manny thought. He loves Emma. I just found them in bed together! Stop thinking of him! "Manny? Are you alright?" "Yeah." Manny replied quickly. "Just a little rattled still." "Oh..ok." They reached Emma's house. Once Emma entered, she felt a hard smack against her chest. "Emma!" Spike cried, squeezing Emma to her chest. "I was so worried!" "Why?" Emma gasped; she was a little out of breath. Snake caught onto this and peeled his wife off of Emma. Emma took in a deep breath of air. "We went for a walk, that's all." Manny said. "Yeah, sorry to worry you." "I thought you were dead!" Spike cried. She burst into a hysterical set of tears. "Mom!" Emma exclaimed, walking next to her mother. "We were not gone long. We only went out for a little walk around the neighborhood. You don't need to worry so much. I'm fine...we're fine!" Emma said, making a gesture at Manny. "Yeah!" Manny said, "Perfectly okay." "Okay..." Spike said, not very convinced, "if you say so." "Come one dear, lets go into the kitchen and make some coffee." "What? Oh, coffee, okay." They adjourned into the kitchen together. Manny and Emma went upstairs into Emma's room. "My go EM, your mom was really worried." "I know." Emma replied, "It was weird."
