Patrick opened the gift and tears came to his eyes. Pictures of his little boy growing up.

"Emily, this is- I-," Patrick said as he looked at the album. "I don't know what to say."

"Save the tears, doc," Steven told him. "Emily, I need you. NOT like that, McDoofus."

Emily shot Steven a dirty look.

"What's going on?"

"It's Emma," Steven told her. "I think I upset her. I don't know what it was I said, but she just ran into the bathroom. I think I screwed things up with her."

"I'll go check on her," Emily offered, heading towards the bathroom.


"Emma?" she called, walking into the bathroom. Emma was sitting in a stall crying. "Hey, what happened?"

"I just... I just figured out why I can't do relationships. Steven is so nice and kind, but everytime he tries to be nice, I keep picturing him standing over me. I can't do this..."

"So, what'd she get you?" Patrick asked. "A box of tampons?"

"I'm not gay," Steven told him. "What's your problem?"

After a few minutes of crying, Emma walked out of the stall and sat on a couch in the corner of the ladies' room. Emily sat next to her and handed her a tissue.

"I know that you're never going to be able to forget what happened to you, but Emma, Steven's always been incredible to me. He's kind and generous. He's not going to treat you like that. He would never hurt you."

"My problem is that I don't like you," Patrick told him. He leaned in and whispered in Steven's ear. "I checked up on you, Steven. I know why you're really in Westland."

"If you know, you wouldn't be acting like a dick," Steven told him.

"I don't want you getting attached to Emily or Emma," Patrick told him. "Or anyone close to me, for that matter. I'm not going to put the hell that's going to follow."

"You don't get to make that choice," Steven told him.

Emma smiled. "Okay, okay, I'll relax," she told Emily, "But for tonight, I just need to get out of here. I don't think I can face anybody after the temper tantrum I just threw."

"Why don't you go visit your brother? I'll cover with Steven and Patrick," Emily offered.

"Why are you so nice to me?" Emma asked, "I mean, I'm not used to having friends."

"Just... call it a mutual favor. You kept me together when I was falling apart because of Patrick. I owe you one. Now go, wish Andy a Merry Christmas."

Emma stood up and hugged Emily. She turned and walked out the back of the hotel, heading to visit Andy in rehab.

Meanwhile, Emily walked back towards the Christmas tree and gave Steven a friendly hug.

"Don't take it personally, okay? She'll be okay. She just needed to go see her brother."

"I'm going to head home, then," Steven said. "Thanks, Em."

Steven gave Patrick a mean look as he walked away.

"Are you alright?" Patrick asked as he looked at her.

"Yeah, I'm fine. I really think that Steven and Emma are going to be great together. I was even thinking about asking them to stand up in the wedding, maybe have them over for dessert tomorrow night to make it official?" Emily asked with a smile as she took a seat on Patrick's lap and smiled.

"Em, I don't think Steven's going to stay in Westland too much longer," Patrick told her. "There's something- there's something you really should know."

"What?" Emily asked him with concern, "Steven's not in trouble, is he?"

"It's something that he needs to tell you," Patrick said as he turned his head. "It's not my place. But- I just don't like seeing you or Emma getting attached to him when he's not going to be here much longer."

"Patrick, you're scaring me..." Emily started, picking up the scrapbook she gave him off the floor and holding it close to her, "Should I be pushing Emma to date Steven? Or is there something bigger going on? I trust you, baby, just tell me what's going on."

"He's dying, Em," Patrick told her. "He's got a rare genetic disorder that's going to shut his body down. He's on medication to keep it in check, and thinks it's a long term solution, but-"

Patrick looked down at the table. "I checked into it. Sooner or later his body's going to build up an immunity to the drugs and he's going to die."

Emily looked around the room instinctively. Zack was across the room with Brandon, playing with a video game he had gotten.

"It's not fair, you know?" she whispered, "Steven's been nothing but kind and caring and Elizabeth just had the baby... Damn it."

"I didn't want to have to tell you like this," Patrick told her. "It's just... he's pretending like it's nothing, like he can just waltz into your life, then leave it without having any major effect. I hate that he knows he's going to die and doesn't care how it's going to affect everyone."

"I can't think about this right now," Emily told him, turning away from him and opening the scrapbook of Zack's baby pictures, desperate for a distraction.

"Look, did you see this one? I like it because Zack's dimples look just like yours..."

"I can't believe I missed out on all these years with him," Patrick told her. "I lost 13 years with my son."

"Yeah, but you have him now," Emily told him, "You came to find him. His mother didn't; and no matter how much you hate missing that time, you have him for the rest of your life."

"Yeah, that's true," Patrick replied as he looked at the album. "I never want to lose another minute with Zack or Lucas."

"You won't. You're a good father who knows where his priorities are..." Emily told him, forcing a smile, "And the boys love you very much for it."

"Maybe this summer we should think about taking the boys on a road trip," Patrick suggested. "Maybe go to Disneyland or something as a family."

"I'm one step ahead of you already," Emily told him with excitement, "I've already been researching it on my breaks at work. I was thinking that we could do that right after a honeymoon. What do you think?"

Patrick smiled as he held her close. "The only obstacle now is Nikolas letting us take Lucas on a road trip."
