Emily looked up into his face as he stroked her hair gently. She could feel the tears coming on, but put them away for the moment as he pleaded softly with her. She closed her eyes for a moment as she gathered her wits about her. She had just done it once, but it had been enough, or at least it seemed like it. She looked into his face once more and knew that it hadn't been enough. She felt the tears slip out of her eyes and nodded her head as she put her hands on either side of his face. "Okay, I'll try, really hard." Emily sighed before she moved in as close to him as she could.

It was all he could ask but it still wasn't enough. He nodded and accepted what she'd said. He leaned in and kissed her softly, slowly. "I love you Emily. There isn't anything we can't get through." He promised and settled back comfortably on the couch. His phone vibrated in his pocket and he looked down at it. He smiled and shook his head... "Eric... wants me to go out.. You don't want to do you?" He asked looking at her. He was fully prepared to stay home but if she wanted to go out.. he wouldn't stop her by far.

Emily kissed him back. She managed a weak smile as he spoke and she nodded her head. "Yeah, seems that way." She gave a half hearted laugh. "I love you too." She told him honestly. She frowned and leaned away as his phone buzzed. She waited carefully and watched as he said Eric wanted him to go out. Emily couldn't help but sigh before she looked at him with a real genuine fear in her eyes. "I'd love for you to go out, and I do trust you, but-" she stopped feeling self-conscious. "I don't trust myself. The drugs have been hanging in my head, I don't trust myself to be alone, not tonight anyway. Will you please stay with me?" she pleaded softly.

He smiled weakly feeling defeated, he wished he could go so bad, forget about everything looming in his head but he knew he couldnt leave emily. He nodded and kissed her softly, "Yeah, Ill stay." He said trying not to look too worried over it. He cuddled back up to her and text eric back that he couldnt come out.. he simply wrote not tonigght and tucked his phone away

Emily looked at him with gratitude as he kissed her and assured her that he would stay. "Thanks," she said as she relaxed against him. The movie finished, and by that time, Emily had fallen asleep. The stress had exhausted her and now she was fast asleep. She had curled up close to Justin. He was her only lifeline now, and without him, she'd probably die. She knew that she loved him, more than anything. She was afraid of what would happen if she was left alone. She knew they couldn't afford a fight.

He sighed as he looked down at the sleeping Emily. He loved her so much but had changed his entire life for her and he didn't know if he was okay with that but knew that this point he couldnt afford another fight with her if he wanted to keep her. He closed his eyes and tried getting comfortable beneath her falling asleep on the couch curled up.

Emily yawned and stretched her stiff limbs carefully as her eyes fluttered open. She looked at Justin, and smiled. He was still sleeping. She was so grateful for him, and she decided to make him breakfast. She carefully untangled herself from him and headed to the kitchen where she worked on putting some slabs of bacon on a skillet and began to mix up some pancakes. She hummed quietly to herself as she worked. She was in a rather good mood at the moment, and she wasn't sure why. Emily had a feeling it had to do with Justin, but she couldn't see why he could make her so happy without really doing anything. Either way, she wanted to surprise him, and make up for keeping him indoors last night.

He slept in a little longer but soon moved and realized that Emily wasn't in his arms anymore, He called out softly, sleepily, "Mmm Em?" He was too weak to actually open his eyes or get up and look for her but he wanted her back in his arms that instant. "Come here." He half whined.

Emily heard Justin whining and she couldn't help but smile. She quickly took off the pancakes and the bacon before she went back to him. She put her hands on her hips as she came to stand in front of him. "Yes, you want something?" she asked him warmly as she looked at him lovingly.

He smiled holding out his arms for her to come to him and wrapped her up in a hug pulling her down on top of him. He kissed her softly and smiled, "Good Morning beautiful." He was happy to have her in his arms and relaxed quickly. He held her close and said, "Was that bacon I smelled?" He laughed slightly. "If not.. i think we're gonna have an issue."

Emily shook her head, but happily complied as she was now laying on top of him. "Well good morning to you dashingly attractive man," she giggled and smiled. She loved seeing him happy like this. It made her whole world at peace. It didn't seem like anything tragic could happen to them if they were just happy like this. "No, that must've been your imagination. Bacon is of the devil," she joked lightly before she wiggled away from him and rolled off onto the floor with a thud. She laughed and pulled herself up before she dragged him off of the couch. "I made you breakfast." Emily seemed rather pleased with her self.

He smiled and sat up taking her with him. He stretched slightly and headed into the kitchen looking over the breakfast she made. He grinned and said, "Mmm let's eat!" He laughed and kissed her "Thank you for making me breakfast babe. You're the best." He grabbed a plate of food and sat down relaxing taking a bite. Pancakes were his favorite ever "mmm" He grinned.

Emily beamed with happiness as he kissed her. "Well I thought you deserved something for being as wonderful as you are." She laughed lightly and sat down next to him. She poured some syrup on her pancakes after loading it with butter. It was all delicious, and the company was incredible. She ate quietly, content just to be with Justin as they ate the breakfast. Normally people cracked under silence, but right now it was just a comfortable atmosphere with no need for words.

He finished up his breakfast and broke the silence, "Thanks." He grinned and headed to take a shower coming out dressed in jeans and a teeshirt, not planning to go anywhere but just needed to get ready since they'd been in the house for a few days. He smiled and wrapped his arms around her, "Hi beautiful." He grinned.

Emily smiled and nodded her head as he left. She cleaned up the kitchen and moved into their room to change into some comfortable, but nice clothes. She felt his arms wrap around her waist after a moment and she smiled. "Hi to you too," she flipped around in his arms and gave him a long kiss. She had no idea she could just love anyone as much as she loved him. "Don't you think it's crazy?" she asked him lightly. "Falling in love I mean. I was supposed to pull you out of your world, but turns out I got sucked in instead." She kissed his cheeks before she smiled warmly. "But I really don't care." She admitted.
