Chapter 4 -

Emily's mind kept creeping back to the dream that she'd experienced earlier in the day. Had she really dreamt of kissing Sonny? Loving Sonny? She already had so much on her plate and now this? Emily groaned, "What, am I going to do?"

Maybe, her dream didn't mean anything? Maybe, she didn't love Sonny? Maybe, she didn't want to kiss Sonny? "Or maybe I do," Emily then decided that she'd better get some sleep. "A dreamless sleep," she muttered, closing her eyes. "Dreamless sleep," she repeated, and before she knew it, she was asleep.


Emily's Dream

"Damn-it!" Emily cursed as she fell onto the ground. Her parents forced her to start using the cane to help her get around.

"Hey, it's okay," he said, scooping her into his arms. "You're going to get the hang of this, Emily, I promise."

"The hang of this?" Emily shook her head, as she scrambled to stand back up right. "Sonny, this isn't like learning how to drive a car! I am blind! Blind! You don't 'get the hang of that'!"

"I'm sorry, Em," he apologized, taking her by the wrists. "I didn't mean to upset you. And I know that this isn't like learning to drive a car. This is completely different,"

"It is," she said, through tears.

Sonny, kissed her tears away, pulling her into a hug. "You're going to be okay, Emily. I promise,"

"I love you so much, Sonny." Emily said, into his chest.

"I love you too, honey," he smiled. Pulling her back, he kissed her lips, softly. "Are you ready to try again?"

Emily nodded. "Yeah, I am."

The End Of Emily's Dream


Emily shot up out of bed, out of breath. "What's happening?" Emily wondered. Falling back into bed, she shook her head. "This can't be good,"


Sonny, had left Emily's hospital room last night, worried. He knew that she must've been scared. Her first night there and all. "Why didn't you stay with her?" Sonny, asked himself. She'd taken such good care of him and the boys through the entire 'Carly' ordeal. Now, he needed to be there to take care of her. "And that's what I'm going to do," he thought aloud.


"Emily, this is going to help you." Monica told her daughter, supporting her with one of her arms.

"A cane, Mom?" Emily shook her head. "It's like admitting that I'm blind!"

"You are!" Her mother replied, harshly. She then regretted her words. "I'm sorry, honey. But you've overcome more than this. Cancer, for one. Don't let this take you down, Emily."

She then, grabbed the cane from her mother and slowly walked into the hallway outside of her hospital room. Her mother was right behind her for every step. Finally, she made it to the end of the hallway where he was standing. "Hey,"

"Sonny?"

"Hey, you look like you're doing a lot better." Sonny, smiled.

"She is," Monica piped up then paused. "Sonny, why are you really here?"

"Excuse me?"

"What's your motive?" Monica asked.

"Mom, stop it," Emily urged her.

"Okay, okay," she said, throwing her hands in the air. "Will you at least help walk her back to her room, Sonny?"

"Of course," Sonny replied.

"I'm sorry about that," Emily said, after she'd heard her mother leave.

"It's not your fault," Sonny told her, guiding her down the hall. "Anyway, I really don't blame her,"

"Sonny, she attacked you for no reason,"

"She had a reason, Em." Sonny, said. "You."

Emily sighed, "I know, I know."

"Hey, Michael and Morgan wanted me to tell you that they love you. And they hope that you're better real soon."

They walked back into Emily's empty hospital room, "Oh, would you tell them that I love them too. And that they better behave for their father."

"I'll tell them," Sonny said, helping her back into bed.

"Emily!"

She looked in the direction of the door, "Nikolas?"

"Em, are you okay?" Nick asked, brushing past Sonny and retreating to Emily's side.

"Yeah, yeah, Nikolas, I'm fine," she assured him, "What are you doing here,"

"Lucky told me that you'd been in an accident," Nikolas replied. "I came here as fast as I could,"

"Not fast enough," Sonny muttered under his breath.

"What was that?" Nick asked him.

Sonny, shrugged. "I'm going to head home. I'll come by and see you later, Emily."

"Goodbye, Sonny." Emily's lips curved into a smile.

And with that, Sonny walked out of her hospital room, leaving her with her ex-husband.
