After Solvei had talked to Em she just had to get out. She knew that she was running away from her problems and that it wouldn't do her any good. But she just needed a few minutes to catch her breath. Really, she had no idea what the fuck to do.
Faith had told her that they'd all looked everywhere for her and I'm sure that they had called Xander... and she just ran out the door. She ran until she couldn't anymore. Realizing how stupid she was being she turned back. Instead of running, she walked, and took her time to think about what she was going to say to Dean. Because, she knew, that he was waiting for her.
Getting all the way back to her building she stood in the back looking up at the fire escape. Still not knowing what she was going to say she bit the proverbial bullet and climbed up the fire escape. As soon as she saw him she stopped. She got up the last few steps and she couldn't say a word.
There were tears in her eyes and she never fucking cried. But it was just so much. When he looked up at her his eyes met hers. Her voice rumbled up from her chest in more of a sob than anything else, "Is it really you?"
