My hands gripped the side of Alex's crib tightly. I wasn't too sure how long I'd been standing there. I knew I should go, get out of the room at least but I couldn't. Sometime just wouldn't let me. I hadn't cried in a while. Hadn't eaten in a while either. Hadn't done much til everything fell apart. A big part of myself was missing. I knew that. My son, my boyfriend. I was lost without them. I sink into the rocking chair in the corner, putting my head in my hands."..Help.." I whisper softly to the ceiling."I need help."

This was the second time Emma had visited the mansion. She chuckled softly as she knocked on the door. She had gotten word the one of her old friends Madeline Spear had lived here. This was where she had found Chris, so at some point in her mind Emma had put two and two together, but tried to stop herself. Assumptions will be the death of you Em... Emma smiled slightly knocking on the door again, seeing as it had been a few minutes since she last knocked. Emma had been cought in her thoughts, she guessed.

I hear someone knock, but I don't feel like answering it. I force myself up though, walking out to the landing,"It's open!"

Emma slips through the door with a wide grin on her face as she hears Maddie's voice. "Still loud as ever, I see." Emma grinned.

I can feel a smile tug at the corner of my lips for what feels like the first time in year."Emma." I whisper softly, racing down the stairs, and throwing my arms around her in a hug.

"What's wrong hun?" Emma asked, seeing that Maddie seemed...Emma couldn't place it. She seemed sadder...Not the same Maddie Emma had left.

"Don't say that maddie." Emma says sternly. She didn't want her to say that about herself. "You're a mum?" Emma asked with a smile. "Why the sadness then?"

Cos his father cheated on me, cos they took him away. I'm not sure I want to say this, but I open my mouth, hoping it'll help me fell better. "Cos his father cheated on me, cos they took my baby away."

Emma looks at Maddie and doesn't know what to say to that. She lets out a soft sigh and pulls her back into a comforting hug. "Oh hun..." She mutters, triyng to think of something to say or do.

I bite down on my bottom lip, not wanting to cry in front of her. I'd known Emma for years. She was my hero. I wasn't about to cry infront of her.

"Come on love.." Emma said leading Maddie over to what looked to be the living room and sat her down on the sofa and Emma sat next to her arm still around her. "Tell me the reason, whoes name it was the took him and how long ago." Emma asked softly. Emma had been working at the Ministry and it had tought her a few things. If the people who took maddie's child let out one little thing, there was still a chance Maddie could get him back.

I wipe my eyes before the tears could fall, then pull my sleeve up to show her the scars. I don't say anything, just waiting. My eyes catch sight of the picture of Ian and Alex and they instantly start to sting again.

Emma grabs onto Maddie's arm lightly looking at her arm. "Maddie.." She sighs softly. She ahs no room to say anything or to judge, not that Emma would. But no one can judge unless they've gone through the same thing. Emma hasn't. "Have you stopped?" She asked. Emma looks up at Maddie and sees tears briming in her eye lids. "It's okay to cry...Lord knows I've done my share lately." She mutters with a small smile trying to sooth Maddie.

I nod weakly,"It's a cowards way out. You know me Em. I'm a Lion after all," I whisper softly,"It cost me my son. I'll never do it again." I run a hand through my hair,"I've done my share of crying, I'm not going to cry. Not for him."

Emma nods. "There's a way to get your son back. If not-...I'll find a way to get him back to you. Promise." She assures Maddie. "Have they put him in foster homes or up for adoption?" She asked Maddie. She nodded. "I'm just telling you, it's alright. And if you need a shoulder to cry on, I'll be right here."

Emma gave Maddie a small smile, trying to make her feel better. "You do these things for people that you love." She said. "Think you can show me this big home of yours?" She asked, trying to get Maddie's mind off of the current subject. "If we're lucky we won't get lost." Was Emma's desperate attempt at humor. She'd do anything at the moment to see her old friend smile.
