Andy stretched as he put his slippers on. He put on his coat as he got into the wheelchair. "Thanks, Brandon. For everything."

"What, like you can blame me for making such a great guy's Christmas miracles come true?" Brandon laughed as they made their way up to the roof. He pushed Andy's wheelchair the whole way, glad that he could count this as work.

Andy looked at the snow and a tear came to his eye. "It's been years since I've seen snow. I grew up in Florida."

"Tell me about it," Brandon encouraged him, taking a seat next to him on a ledge, "I want to know what it was like when you were a kid."

"I had a pretty good childhood," Andy told him as he looked over the ledge of the building. "I was into all the sports when I a kid. Then my dad died and I had to drop out of all the sports so I could get a job to help with the bills. Then Mom married my stepdad, and things only seemed to get worse. Mom died a few months after they got married and left me and Emma with him. That's about the time I met Aaron. He was so kind and sweet. Then he convinced me to move in with him, and... everything changed. He became so vicious and violent."

"How did Emma get you away from him?" Brandon asked timidly, not sure how to approach the subject, "I mean, we might need some tips for protecting you if he gets back to town."

"She waited until he was out of the house for a meeting," Andy told him, not wanting to remember the abuse he went through. "Aaron always knew I was too scared to run. But Emma... she convinced me to go. We left Florida that night and never looked back."

"And he hasn't found you since, which is good," Brandon encouraged, "If he gets anywhere close, we'll take him. Too many people in this town care about you."

"Just be careful," Andy told him as he looked over the edge of the building. "I don't want you to get hurt because of me."

"What is one man going to do to a whole group of us? We'll be careful, but we'll get rid of this creep, too," Brandon assured him, "By Valentine's Day, we'll be dancing at that wedding."

"I can't wait," Andy said with a smile as he touched Brandon's hand.

It started to get cold, so Brandon stood up and grabbed the wheelchair.

"Let's get you inside. Your sister should be here anytime now."

Andy sat down in the wheelchair and smiled at Brandon. "Thanks for bringing me up here. Fresh air was just what I needed."

"It's my pleasure," Brandon smiled, wheeling him to the elevator where they went back to his room, "I think you and I could be good together, Andy."

"You're already having a positive influence on my life," Andy told him. "I haven't thought about shooting up once since you came in."

"Good, keep that up," Brandon smiled, checking over his chart once more. "I'm technically just on call, so what should we do to spend our Christmas together?"
Quote Post Goto Top

"How about a nice Christmas dinner together?" Andy asked. "You and me and Emma when she arrives."
Quote Post Goto Top

"It sounds like heaven," Brandon smiled, "That diner down the street is open today. I can call and order us some turkey sandwiches or something."

"It sounds great," Andy told him. "You don't mind having dinner in the hospital, do you?"

Emma Barclay

"I didn't have any other plans. My family is too far away and I have to work in the morning, so I was basically going to sit on the couch and watch tv all night," Brandon explained. Just then, the door opened and Emma came in carrying a gift for Andy. Steven was following her.

"Merry Christmas, bro!" she smiled, handing him the box and kissing his cheek. "How are you feeling?"

"A lot better," Andy said as he looked up at her. "Considering that I'm strapped to a bed."

"Brandon, can I talk with you for a minute?" Steven asked.

"Yeah, well, it won't be for too much longer," Emma consoled him, as Steven and Brandon went into the hallway. "At least you have good company."


"What's up?" Brandon asked, looking at Steven closely, "Is Emma alright?"

"No, but that's another matter," Steven told him. "Andy's ex is in town, and he's looking for him. You can't tell Andy that Aaron's here, but you also have to be on alert for him."

Emma Barclay

"Can you describe him for me?" Brandon asked with concern, "I want to know exactly what he looks like. I won't let him get anywhere near Andy."

"About six foot, blonde," Steven told him. "Dresses really nice. He looks like a nice guy, but I saw him threatening Emma. Bastard put his hands on her, threatening to kill her if she didn't talk."


"I really like Brandon," Andy told her. "He's the first guy who's actually been nice to me."
