Steven poured himself a drink and sat on the couch. The twins were with a sitter, and he hadn't heard from Emma since the day she left him. He'd been sinking into a depression without her, with only the twins to keep him afloat. |

Lulu knocked on Steven's door, wanting to drop off a gift for the twins for Christmas. She hadn't spoken to Steven since the night she told him she had feelings for him, but she hoped Emma would answer the door. |

Steven got up and stumbled to the door, having been doing nothing but drink when the twins weren't around. He missed Emma, and was going mad without her. |

Lulu stood back when Steven drunkenly opened the door. She looked at him and realized something was very wrong. "What's going on? Why are you drinking?" |

"Emma's gone," Steven told her. "She walked out on me and the boys two months ago." |

"What?! Dr. Webber... why didn't you say anything? What happened?" Lulu asked in shock. |

"She had post pardum like I feared," Steven told her as he sat down and took a drink. "We get into an argument... and she just ran out. Last I heard, she was moving to be near Zander in an apartment Andy bought before he was killed." |

"How are you working and taking care of the boys? Do you have help?" Lulu asked with concern, sitting on a chair across from him. |

"Spinelli's been taking care of the boys while I work," Steven told her. "It's all he has to focus on, too. He was really heartbroken over you." |

Lulu nodded. "I've been trying to talk to him, but I don't want to lead him on. I just wish I could make myself care for him that way." |

"He's been a big help with Andy and Colton," Steven told her. "Sometimes I think he's a better father to them than I am." |

"I let their mother walk out," Steven told her. "I'm the reason their uncle died. I'm worst father ever." |

"You are busting your butt to take care of them, and you're letting their mother get the space she needs," Lulu told him, walking toward him and cleaning up the alcohol bottles in front of him. "You should eat. I'm going to make you something." |

"Don't be silly. I didn't want to go to that Christmas party, anyways. I have experience taking care of drunks... my dad is the king. I'll make you some eggs and toast, then I'll check on the kids for you." |

"They're at Wyndemere with Spinelli and Zack," Steven told her as he leaned back and closed his eyes. |

"Oh, well, then I'll sit here and be your sounding board," Lulu called from the kitchen as she fried some eggs for him. |

Steven laid back and tried to relax, trying not to think about how he'd lost the love of his life. |

Lulu put together a plate for him and brought it out with a cup of coffee she had brewed. "Eat up," she told Steven, wanting for him to get sober. |

"Look, I know I really freaked you out that night... but I just want to be a friend to you, if that's possible. I blew my friendship with Spinelli, and my brothers are all wrapped up in their lives. I just could use a friend." |

"She will... she just needs time," Lulu told him, "I've heard post pardum depression is really horrible. But I'm sure if she's with Zander, he'll help her through it." |

"And what if she decides she doesn't want to come back?" Steven asked her. "What if she realizes starting a family was the biggest mistake of her life?" |
