Andy sat by Steven's bedside, helping him eat his lunch. This was one of those days where Steven was too weak to even get out of bed. His weight had dropped dramatically and he was now at 120 lbs.

"I hate this," Steven weakly said. "I can't even move."

"I know," Andy told him. "We all hate seeing you like this."

"Just try to hang on," Andy told him. "Your baby will be here in a few months. Emma's really excited."

"I want to hold my baby when it arrives," Steven told him. "Even if it's once."

"Then you need to fight this," Andy said as he fed Steven a spoon of soup. "You have to fight for Emma and your child. They need you."

"Where's Will?" Steven weakly asked.

"At the hospital," Andy replied. "He's going to football camp and needed a doctor's okay. Emma's having a day to herself, so you're stuck with me."

Emma dragged Emily into her apartment and shut the door behind them. "Steven's been really down lately, too, so we're going to work on this together, got it? Just go freshen up and we'll get started..."

"I have no idea what you have in mind," Emily admitted, "But you're my best friend, so I trust you."

"Sis, is that you?" Andy asked as he heard the door open. He cleaned up Steven a little, combing his hair for him.

"Yeah," Emma called, heading back into the bedroom. She hated seeing Steven that ill, but she tried to keep up a good attitude with him.

"There's the most handsome man alive... how are you feeling?"

"Like I've been run over," Steven weakly said.

"He hasn't eaten much," Andy told her. "I fixed him Mom's special soup, too. We can bowls of that stuff."

"Well, we're going to have a little party," Emma said, "That will lift his spirits."

"A party with two pregnant women and a guy who can't even get out of bed," Andy sarcastically said. "That'll be a blast."

"Hey... pregnant women can have fun," Emma defended, "And we can make it a slumber party. Stop being so negative."

"Hey, no fair," Andy told her. "You have your boyfriend here, and you probably invited Patrick for Emily, who's going to be my sleepover buddy?"

"I could invite Brandon..." Emma started, "I guess I thought you should do it yourself."

"We've been taking it slow," Andy told her. "Really, really, slow. We haven't even gotten past the 'quick kiss' phase yet. Do you think he'd come?"

"Trust me, it's not an orgy," Emma laughed, "It's just a trying to get our relationships back to a good place thing..."

"Good, because having an orgy with my sister is where I draw the line," Andy said with a laugh as he went to the phone to call Brandon.

Patrick knocked on the door with the chinese food in hand.

"There's Patrick," Emma smiled, noticing how pale Steven was, "I'll go let him in."

Emma opened the door and helped Patrick with the food, "Thanks for coming. I think we could all use this."

Andy dialed Brandon's number, knowing he had the day off.


"How's he doing today?" Patrick asked as he hugged Emma.

"He's got a little more color, and he's definitely been sleeping through the night," Emma said, completely in denial about how much worse Steven was getting. She had actually convinced herself that it was just like the flu, and that it would pass.


Brandon answered his cell phone after waking up to its run. "Hello?" he answered groggily.

"Emma, are you sure he wouldn't be better off in the hospital?" Patrick asked. "It can't be easy being here 24/7 for him."


"Brandon, it's Andy," Andy said as he sat back. "I was just wondering... Emma's throwing a little get together to try to cheer Steven and Emily up and... would you like to come?"
Quote Post Goto Top

"No," Emma said, "He's staying home, with me and our baby. I won't consider anything else."


"I'd love to," Brandon said, "But are you sure it's not just an expecting couple thing?"

"Emma," Patrick told her honestly. "You're halfway along your pregnancy and... Steven doesn't have much longer. I didn't want to tell you, but... he's got a few weeks, a month at the most. I'm sorry."


"Well, I'm sure Will counts as our child as much time as we spend with him," Andy said with a laugh.

"Get out," Emma said with intensity, "I don't want you in this house with those negative thoughts. So you can just leave..."


"I guess so," Brandon smiled, "I'll be there in twenty minutes. Can I bring anything?"

"I'm sorry," Patrick told her as he turned to leave. "When it gets to the point where Steven just wants to sleep... he's going to close his eyes and he's not going to wake up. Tell Emily I'll be at home trying to find Steven a donor."


"A lot of cheer," Andy told him. "Steven's getting worse, and Emma's in complete denial."

"That's horrible," Brandon said, "I can't imagine what that's like for her, especially with the baby coming."


"No," Emily interrupted, entering the room, "What happened to being happy? What's going on?"
Quote Post Goto Top

"Emily, I can't stay," Patrick told her. "Not knowing what's going to happen."


"Yeah," Andy agreed. "They were so happy when they found out she was expecting. Then... then he passed out a few days later in the middle of the grocery store, and things just started getting worse."
