The day had started normally for Emma. She'd gotten up and gone to school, completely unaware that her whole world was shattering. Sometime after lunch--being the time in her schedule allotted for lunch rather than actually eating lunch, Emma hadn't eaten lunch on a weekday since school started. With her relapse and Dean's watchful eye, it was the only meal of the day that Emma could actually skip--Kara had sent her a text. She'd been in class at the time, so she didn't see it until that class let out. As soon as she saw the words, she felt her world collapse: "At the hospital. Leo dying. Doesn't look good."
Of course, Emma couldn't tell anyone she cared that Leo was dying, because Leo had made it abundantly clear that he didn't want her to care and she had promised she wouldn't. It took a lot of talking for her to admit to Dean that she cared and that it broke her heart that Leo had apparently been asking for her. After making her eat some dinner--a little less than normal--Dean drove her to the hospital.
She'd tried to sit down and wait, but it wasn't going well. She had never been the kind of person to let things happen. She had to have control and she had no control over what happened to Leo. She finally got up to get some coffee, needing something to do with her hands, needing something to think about other than Leo and the fact that she might never see him alive again.
