Waiting for Emma

Aaron Young had traveled all night to get to Westland. It took convincing Andy's old friends to tell him where Andy had disappeared to, and now he was coming to reclaim what was his.

But he needed to find Andy's exact whereabouts since he wasn't in the phone book. But he'd managed to track down the next best thing: His sister.

Aaron waited around the corner of her apartment to surprise her when she came home. She'd tell him where Andy was, or else.

Emma and Steven had stopped for coffee on the way home. When they got to their apartment building, they walked inside. Steven immediately headed for the shower and Emma sat on the couch, remembering everything that Emily told her about opening up to Steven and allowing herself to be vulnerable.

Aaron knocked on the door to Emma's apartment. He was going to get the information he needed, one way or another.

Emma jumped initially at the knock on the door, but then realized she was just reliving too much of her childhood trauma. She needed to move on. She stood up and opened the door, immediately spotting those eyes that terrorized her brother. She went to slam the door back in his face, but his hand stopped her.

"Get the hell out!"

Aaron laughed as he barged his way into the apartment. "Hello, Emma. Is that any way to talk to your brother's boyfriend? Speaking of which, where is Andy? We have a lot to discuss, like him just skipping town without telling me."

"Andy's not here, but my boyfriend is," Emma lied, hoping that Steven would get out of the shower ASAP, "And he's not going to want you around here. He knows what you did to my brother."

"Boyfriend? You mean stopped whoring yourself out night after night?" Aaron asked as put his hand on Emma's shoulder. "Tell me where Andy is, and maybe I won't have to kill you and whatever loser you're sleeping with these days."

"Even if I wanted to tell you," Emma spat out angrily, praying he wouldn't catch onto her lies, "I couldn't. He took off with some doctor last week. I don't know how to find him."

"I hope you're not lying," Aaron said as he put pressure on Emma's shoulder. "You remember what happens to Andy when he lies to me? Maybe tying you up and raping your boyfriend will make you talk, huh? Last chance, bitch."

Emma looked at him with contempt. Something about Aaron reminded her so much of her step father... she couldn't relive that hell.

"Andy isn't in Westland right now, okay? The doctor he took off with was Latino.. that's all I know."

"Really?" Aaron said as he prepared to smack her, but his hand was caught by Steven, who was soaking wet and wearing just a towel.

"Hands off," Steven said as he punched Aaron. "Are you alright, Emma?"

Aaron got up and punched Steven in the stomach. Steven pushed into Aaron, and punched him in the jaw as the two got into a wrestling match. Steven wound up on top of Aaron and punched him hard. He picked the man up and rammed him into the wall before tossing him outside.

"Just imagine the ass kicking you'd get if I was wearing pants," Steven said as he looked at Aaron. "Get out of here, or I'm calling the cops."

Steven closed the door and felt his bleeding lip. "Are you alright, Emma? Who was that jerk?"

Emma stood speechless in the corner. She hadn't felt that scared in such a long time. She shook a little as she tried to wrap her mind around this.

"That... that was Andy's ex-boyfriend, Aaron. He's insane and abusive and he's looking for my brother. I have to do something to keep him safe."

Steven put his arm around Emma's shoulder and helped her to the couch.

"You aren't going to do anything," Steven told her. "You're going to sit here and relax. I'm going to call the hosptial and have them watch out for this sicko. Then I'm going to call the guys and let them know what's going on. He's not going to hurt Andy, I promise."

"Let me get you some ice for your lip," Emma offered, going into the kitchen and bringing him an ice pack. "I want to help. I'll call anybody."

"We'll have to call Brandon, Luke, Matt, and unfortunately, Patrick," Steven said. "Strength in numbers, you know? We'll show this creep he can't mess with our friends and get away with it. Just how... bad was he towards Andy?"

"He had him completely under control," Emma explained, "Andy couldn't make a single decision for himself. That bastard beat him, battered him, and probably raped him over and over again. He has to be stopped."

Steven pulled Emma into a hug. "He won't get his hands on Andy, I promise. In the meantime, I want you to be extra careful, alright? If you have to go out, I want you to be either with me, Em, or one of the others. I don't want you to be alone if that creep decides to show up again."

Emma nodded. She was glad she wasn't living alone and that Steven was there to get Aaron away from her, even if it was temporary.

"I will; I promise. I should let you go make those phone calls. I'll just sit back and try to calm down."

Steven let her go and stroked her cheek gently. "It'll be alright, I promise."

Steven got up and went into the kitchen. Unfortunately being Christmas, all he got were voicemails, but he'd left messages with every guy he knew, including Lucky, Nikolas, and Patrick, telling what had happened and to be on the lookout.

He returned, having pulled a pair of blue jeans on. He brought Emma a cup of tea to calm her nerves. "I can't believe Andy would get mixed up with a creep like that."

"Aaron wasn't a creep until it was too late," Emma told him, "He came on kind and sweet and persistent. Kind of like you..." she sighed. "You're not hiding some deep dark secret, are you?"

"Nothing as bad as abusing someone," Steven told her. "I mean, I've done things I wasn't proud of, but I can honestly say I've never hurt anyone."

"Right," Emma nodded, "I'm sorry. I just... I'm scared about letting you into my life. I can't be hurt again, Steven. I absolutely can't feel another big loss."

"Hey," Steven said as he looked at her. "I have no intention of hurting you, alright? I care about you. I mean, I feel like I've known you for years. I mean, Andy had nothing but good things to say about you."

"Yeah, well even Andy doesn't know everything there is to know about me," Emma started. Andy had worshipped their stepfather. She had never told him how he abused her and raped her. It would have killed her brother to know the truth.

"He knows you're a good person," Steven told her. "He wouldn't be alive if it weren't for you. Emma, you're a great person, I've seen it. It's like you have this wall that you don't want anyone to get through. I want to get through that wall and be with you, Emma."
