The boys help Emily up and they walk back inside. When they are inside Emily follows Rocky. She smiles and runs to them.

Emily runs and hugs them.

Emily: Chreesh! Kayden!
Chreesh: Sweet Pea.
Kayden: Oh my God are you okay?
Emily: For now.

They all hug and talk. Emily walks over to Nick and he wraps his arm around her shoulders.

Nick: Ryland wanted to come but he got busy.
Emily: It's okay.
Chase: So how are you doing? Is this too much? Too many people?
Emily: This is what I needed. And breathe! You are more uptight than me.
Chase: Everyone is scared.
Nick: I was freaking out.
Emily: I was going insane being in there.
Chase: I would too.

Emily lightly laughs and says bye to them as she makes her way over to Blake and Josh.

Emily: Where is Amelie?
Blake: About that.
Emily: Blake?

Josh slowly walks away and Emily looks at Blake.

Blake: We broke up.
Emily: What!

Emily hugs Blake and he hugs her back.

Emily: I'm sorry Blake.
Blake: All that matters is that you are okay. I will be okay.
Emily: I'm here for you.
Blake: I know you are.

Emily then walks over to Thomas and Mia and hugs them.

Thomas: Are you doing okay?
Mia: I've missed you.
Emily: I've missed you guys so much. I'm doing better seeing everyone here and getting to interact with everyone.
Thomas: That's good.
Mia: I'm sorry about Tayler.
Thomas: You are still always welcome over at the house.
Emily: Thank you, guys. It means a lot to me that you guys are in my life. I mean it. I know I haven't really said thank you but i'm saying it now. Thank you for taking me in and then letting me come back. I seriously love you guys so much and I probably wouldn't have known what to do when I first moved down here if it wasn't for you and everyone I met.

Mia's eyes start tearing up and she hugs Emily tight as Thomas hugs both of them. Emily starts crying as Mia does too.

Thomas: Don't cry, please. It means a lot to us that you are okay and doing well. I'm glad we met you. You've brought lots of joy to us and everyone.
Mia: I wouldn't have known what to do if I lost you so this is a 'don't try anything else' or I'm gonna kill you myself to bring you back. Okay?

Emily nods her head and they all lightly laugh.

Hours go by and everyone slowly starts leaving and Emily stays over by Rocky and them.

Kayden: When was the last time you got a good night's sleep?
Emily: The day before everything happened.
Jaydan: It should be a little better now that you aren't in that place anymore.
Lane: You haven't had a good night's sleep since me?
Emily: Well just blurt it out!
Jaydan: Everyone already knows Em.
Emily: Y'all suck!

They all start laughing and Emily walks away from them. She walks over to Phillip

Phillip: Hey LadyBug!
Emily: Where is the bathroom? And whose house is this?
Phillip: It's a venue you rent. Nobody lives here. But the bathroom I have no clue.

Phillip and Emily walk around and finally find it after going through 3 hallways. Phillip walks away and Emily walks into the bathroom. She walks in on Blake.

Emily: Sorry.
Blake: It's all good.

Emily closes the door behind her as Blake zips his pants.

Emily: I thought you left?
Blake: Nah. I've been talking to Jaden but he had to step out for a phone call.
Emily: Oh
