Jay was the first to wake up. He saw how peaceful Emma looked sleeping so he decided not to wake her up. Just as he was getting out of bed the door bell rang. He rushed over to get it and found a very unhappy Ellie. Jay is just shocked that she even came to his house. Jay had always hated Ellie and he figured she knew that but guess not.

"Ellie this is an unexpected surprise." Jay said cheerfully. "Yeah well I just came here to tell you about Emma and Sean." Jay looked confused. "Oh? What about them? Are they finally friends again or something? If that's what you are worried about then-" Jay started but Ellie cut him off. "No that's not it at all. I made a terrible mistake. I went over to Emma's yesterday after Sean and I fought. I told Emma a bunch of really mean things that caused us to get into a fight and it was really over nothing. I was mad about Sean because I thought he still liked her and I went over and told her to basically stay away from him." Ellie started to say but then tears fell down her face. "Ellie? Are you okay?" Jay asked in a concerned voice. "Yeah I'm fine. But Sean saw the fight and tried to break it up. Emma said she still loved him and then she ran off. Sean and I were just left standing there and I think he basically broke up with me. I love Sean so much Jay. And you are his best friend. Can you at least try to talk to him?" Ellie pleaded as she whipped away the tears. "Sure Ellie." Jay said and then started walking down the hall to his room not knowing Ellie was following him. When Ellie went into his room she gasped. Jay turned around and saw Ellie looking at Emma and knew he was in for it.

"Now Ellie before you-" Jay started saying but got cut off. "Jay what the hell? I know you and Alex broke up but it doesn't mean you can go sleeping around with random girls especially Emma. It's Emma we are talking about here. Emma fucking Nelson. She's a slut. But then again you already know that. I mean she practically did it with you didn't she?" Ellie said angry at the fact that Emma was sleeping in Jay's bed. "Didn't she?" Ellie said one last time. Surprisingly Emma didn't wake up. But it was probably because she was tired. Or maybe she was awake but didn't want them to know that she was.

Jay didn't even bother arguing with Ellie. He wanted to let her make a fool of herself before he told her something important. Finally after a few minutes of silence Jay spilled the terrible news.

"Ellie look Emma is here because we got home really late last night. We got home late from the hospital." Jay started to say. "Okay? Well I know he is our teacher but just because Snake's cancer came back or something doesn't mean you have to let her sleep in your bed with you in it as well." Ellie said a little mad. "No Ellie you don't get it. We weren't at the hospital for Mr. Simpson. We were at the hospital for Sean." "What? What happened? Is he okay?" Ellie said with tears streaming down her face. "He is okay for now. He has to stay in the hospital for a while though. But if you want to know why he is there then you should ask him yourself. I didn't even know. I'm guessing the only people who knew where the doctors, his parents, and Emma." "Emma? Emma knew? He can tell his ex girlfriend but he can't tell his current one? What's wrong with that picture Jay?" Ellie said sounding kind of depressed. "Emma and Sean have a past together Ellie. A big past. They have been through a lot and they are finally becoming friends. That's something they never were before. He probably trusts her more than us because of their past. Don't start thinking things because of something like this. I know it might hurt you because he trusts his ex more than you but think about it Ellie. You used to cut and he probably thought you would again if you found out what was wrong with him. In a way he was just protecting you. He obviously cares enough to do that." Jay said. Ellie was still crying but thought it was best for her to go. She made her way to the front door and said goodbye to Jay. Ellie slammed the door which made Emma wake up.

After about ten minutes of just sitting in Jay's bed she got up and went to go find him. She walked into the living room to find Jay watching some stupid cartoons and he looked like he was thinking really hard about something. Emma sat down next to him and from there on there was about a ten minute silence.

"Jay you do know that me sleeping in the same bed as you last night doesn't mean anything right?" Emma said. It took Jay a few minutes to think about that. He didn't know why though. "Emma I'm going to be honest with you. After the whole ravine thing and Alex finding out about you I started thinking. And I realized I like you. I like you a lot Emma. But to answer your question I know that us sleeping in the same bed meant nothing. It was just us being friends I guess." Jay said and then walked back to his room. Emma felt really bad. Jay let out all of his feelings for no reason. Emma decided to go talk to him.

"Jay can we talk?" Emma said. "About what? Didn't we just talk?" He said in a mean tone while putting something away. "Jay look at me." Emma sort of yelled. Jay stopped doing what he was doing and looked at her. "Jay I do have feelings for you but only as a friend. Jay I love how you are always there for me. It may not always be the best way to be there for me but you always are. You don't know how much that means to me. Really you don't." Emma said hoping he would believe her. "Alright Emma. I believe you okay but that still doesn't change the fact that I like you a lot. It's going to be really hard to not attempt to do anything but I will try." Emma smiled. "Thanks Jay." Then she kissed his cheek. Emma did it as a friendly type of thank you for understanding thing though. "Don't tempt me Nelson." Jay started. Emma just laughed. "Well can we go back to my house so I can get some clothes?" Emma asked. "Sure. And then do you want to head over to the hospital to see Sean?" Jay knew that Emma still had feelings for Sean. He knew that even when Ellie came over but he just didn't want to admit it to her. And as much as he would hate to see Emma with Sean he knew it would be for the best. They would be happy. Well they would be if Sean made it out of this thing alive.

About ten minutes later both Emma and Jay got into his civic and drove to her house. Jay thought it would be best if he stayed in the car. Emma just agreed because she wanted to get to the hospital as soon as possible. Emma went inside and went to her room to change into some clothes and then came back upstairs. When she did she saw her whole family sitting at the kitchen table.

"I didn't wake you all when I came home did I?" Emma asked. "No sweetie. But where are you going?" Mrs. Nelson asked. "I am going with Jay to the hospital to see Sean. Mom I am so scared. We were just talking and then he got up to leave and he just collapsed. What if he-" Mr. Simpson cut her off. "Emma no what if's okay? I thought I was going to die and look what happened to me. I am perfectly fine now. Sean is a strong boy he should be able to pull through this." Mr. Simpson said. "Sean doesn't have what you had though. But I hope you are right. I really do. I think I… I think I love him. I can't lose him. I don't think I could live if I lost him." Emma said. "Well just hang in there Em. Call us if you need anything." Mrs. Nelson said. Emma just nodded and headed out the door. Emma couldn't believe that she just told her parents she thought she loved Sean. Was she crazy? Was she just saying that because he was in the hospital or was she really truly in love with Sean Hope Cameron?

When Jay and Emma get to the hospital they see Sean's parents sleeping in the chairs. They try to walk past them without waking them up but no such luck. Mrs. Cameron popped her head up and walked over to them. She saw that they were going towards Sean's room.

"Emma and Jay right?" Mrs. Cameron asked. They both just nodded. "Well Sean is doing a little better right now. We got here a little while after you left the nurse said. I was hoping I could meet you both. When he was in Wasaga with us you two were all he talked about." She said with a smile. "Well you can go visit him if you want. It's still a little early and he might be sleeping but you can give it a try." She said and then walked back over to her husband. She quickly fell asleep again.

"Jay you should go first. I still need to think of what I am going to say to him." Emma said. "What? It's not like he is going to die yet Emma." Jay said and then quickly wished he could take it back. "Yet?" Emma said. Her voice kind of cracked. Then she started to cry. "Emma I didn't mean that. I will go first if you want me too. But he will be fine Emma. I promise you. He is a strong kid." With that said Jay walked into Sean's hospital room. He quietly closed the door and when he turned around he saw Sean's eyes flick open.

"Sorry I didn't mean to wake you," Jay said. "No it's fine. I actually haven't been able to go to sleep. Just little naps here and there." Sean said with a big yawn. "Oh. Well how are you doing? You look better." Jay said trying to make things a little more cheerful. "Sure if you think needles in my arms and a machine helping me breath is better. Well then yeah I am doing great." Sean said with a little bit of sarcasm. "Sean that's not funny." Jay said with a serious face. "I don't care. I am going to die in this shit hole anyway. I should just make the best of it." Sean said. Jay got angry. He hated when people said they were going to die. "Shut up." Jay sort of yelled. "What's with you?" Sean asked confused. "Don't say you are going to die. You aren't. You can't Sean." "Why not?" "Emma." Jay said. "What about her? She said it herself. She doesn't know if she believes me or not. I told her I didn't mean it when I told Ellie I loved her and that I wasn't over all. And all that she could say to me was that she needed time to fucking think if she believes me or not." Sean said getting a little angry. "Calm down Sean. But listen she was hysterically crying the other night when we brought you here. Sean I think she really loves you. But I wouldn't blame her if she had to think things over. You hurt her a lot. I know part of that was because of me but you still hurt her. She needs time to regain her trust for you." Sean just laughed a little. "You act like you were with her the whole night. And she doesn't love me. She can't love me. I'm just a bad kid who steals and breaks hearts. Who would want to love that?" "Sean she loves you god damn it. And I was with her all night. It was too late for me to bring her to her house so she came to mine. She is really scared. I think she is more scared than any of us combined. If that doesn't prove that she loves you then I don't know what does." Jay said in kind of an angry tone. He was so mad that Sean didn't believe that Emma loved him. Of course she did. After about five minutes of silence Sean spoke. "Where is Emma? Can I see her? I need too. Jay please get her." Sean said. He sounded a little sad. "Sure thing man." Then Jay walked out the door and got Emma. A few minutes later Emma came through the door. She looked like she was going to die. And for a second Sean thought she was going to run out of his room crying.

"Emma come here." Sean said as he saw her backing away from him a little. Emma slowly walked over to his bedside. "Sean I'm so sorry." Sean looked confused. "For what Emma?" "For this. If I had just told you the truth then maybe you wouldn't be in here. If I just told you that I…" She stopped. She didn't know why. Maybe she was scared that he didn't feel the same even though he told her he did. He could have been lying or something. She didn't really know. "Told me that you what Em? And it's not your fault I am in here. It was bound to happen at one point or another so please don't blame yourself." Sean said. Emma didn't speak. "I well I uh well if I just told you that I love you." Emma said kind of embarrassed. Sean didn't say anything back so she just got up. She thought he didn't feel the same way. "Wait Emma." Emma stopped and turned around. "I love you too. I meant it when I said I didn't really love Ellie and that I wasn't over you. Emma I love you. And I told you about this whole thing because I love you and I thought it would bring us closer. I figured if we got closer then I could tell you me real feelings and I was hoping you would feel the same. But in some ways you pushed me away like you didn't want to know about this or that you were afraid of falling in love with me all over again or something." "I know and I'm sorry for that. I was just afraid that you wouldn't feel the same back. But Sean I have never loved anyone else in my life. You are the one for me. And that's why I am scared. My dad told me not to say the what if's thing but-" Sean cut her off. "Then don't. Lets just take this one day at a time. You and me. One day at a time." Sean said making Emma smile. "I love you so much Sean." Emma said with a yawn. "I love you too. More than you will ever know. But tired much?" He said laughing a little. "Yeah I slept at Jay's. Well actually he slept. I kind of just sat there looking at the wall thinking about things." "Oh. Well come sleep with me." Sean knew that came out wrong when Emma's eyes bulged out. "I didn't mean it like that." "I know." She said with a smile on her face. "Well then come sleep in this crummy old hospital bed with me. I could use the company. And I haven't slept either. I couldn't. I was thinking about you. So maybe you will help me sleep." Sean said. "And maybe you will help me." She said as she climbed into his bed. About ten minutes later they were both asleep in each other's arms. A nurse came in to check on Sean and saw this. She decided not to wake him. She figured he hadn't been able to sleep much anyway and it was good that he was getting a chance to rest.
