Emily looked around the living room and collapsed on the only open seat on the couch. The whole room was filled with wedding gifts, tuxes for the groomsmen, bridesmaid dresses, gifts for the bridal party, and flowers. She wsa very impressed with the work Zack and Patrick put into the wedding, but she was starting to get nervous. The past two months had gone fast, but she felt distant from Patrick. He kept telling her it was just prewedding jitters and that she'd get over it, but she knew it was because of the secret she had about Zack. She couldn't tell anybody, but she was about to panic. |

"Alright, Zack and I are heading out," Patrick told Em as he walked into the room, grabbing his tux. "I wish I could wake up to you in the morning, but there's that whole 'you can't see the bride before the wedding' argument." "Dad, why can't I stay home?" Zack asked. "Why do I have to go to the hotel with you?" "Because your mother and her bridesmaids need their privacy for their... party," Patrick replied. |

"Unless you want your nails painted and your hair curled, I'd advise leaving," Emily teased, standing up to see them leave. The reality was, Elizabeth and Emma were both busy. She told Patrick she needed a bachelorette party, but she was going to take the time to look into Zack's birth records and make sure nothing could be found out about the truth. She couldn't take vows feeling as on edge as she did. |

"Don't let things get too wild," Patrick said as he kissed her. "And I'll see you at the church tomorrow." Patrick took Zack out to the car and drove off to the hotel where they'd be spending the night. A little while later, Steven pulled up and knocked on the door. |

Emily was on Patrick's laptop, trying to get into his account in the hospital database when she heard a knock on the door. She put the computer on the table and opened the door, smiling to see Steven there. "Hey, what brings you by?" |

"I needed to talk to you about Emma," Steven told her, embarassed to be there. |

Emily could tell he was uncomfortable. She ushered him in the door and took his coat. "I'm available to talk anytime. I was actually just sitting around here thinking how quiet it was." |

"I'm falling for Emma," Steven told her. "I mean, really falling for her. I know that she doesn't want a relationship with all that she's been through, but... I'm starting to love her, Em. I want to kiss her, hold her, make her feel safe. How do I tell her without scaring her off?" |

Emily smiled and took a seat, offering the one next to her for him. "Emma's... guarded, but deep down she's just as romantic as any woman. I think the best thing you can do is just be her friend and let her trust you. Eventually, she'll let you know she's ready for more." |

"If I ever meet the man who hurt her," Steven said as he pounded his fists together. "It hurts to think that anyone could treat a woman like that." |

"Emma's been through hell," Emily agreed, nodding, "So has her brother. They need friends, and that's all we can do for them. We all need to show them that we're here to stay." She cleared her throat, thinking about what Patrick told her about Steven. "How are you feeling? Have you seen a doctor lately?" |

"Look, I know about you being sick, Steven. Patrick told me, and I know you're going to be mad at him, but I'm glad he did. I want to help." |

"He told you?" Steven asked as he ran his hand through his hair. "Look, Em, I've got it all under control. I'm taking medication, and I'm going to be fine." |

"You're chances of survival beyond a year are minimal," Emily told him in a whisper, "I'm a doctor now, Steven, I looked it up. You shouldn't live in denial about this." |

"Em, I-," Steven started getting tears in his eyes. "I don't know what to do. I've been to every doctor, and- no one can help me. They told me this medication would slow down the disease, but I guess my body's building an immunity to it. Before long, it won't even work. What am I supposed to do?" |

"Fight like hell and ignore the doctors," Emily encouraged, pulling him into a hug, "Even though I am one, I know from personal experience that people overcome the odds every single day." |

"No, but I think you should tell her eventually, especially if the two of you are getting close," Emily encouraged, "She deserves to know she might lose you." |

"You're right," Steven said. "If I want a relationship, I have to be honest with her. I don't want to have anything based on lies that could tear us apart later." |

Emily swallowed hard and looked at the ground. She knew that she was being a hypocrite. She had her own lies from Patrick. |

"Mmhmm," Emily nodded, standing up quickly, "Yeah, just a little cold feet or something. Can I get you something to drink or eat? I think we have some beers and maybe some leftovers from the rehearsal dinner." |

"Then water it is," Emily faked a smile, heading into the kitchen and getting him a glass. She took a deep breath and splashed some water on her face. She had to calm down or she was going to blab this secret. |
