**Emma's pov**

After visiting her mother and telling her worries and future plans she says goodbye and leaves as visiting hours finish and says she will be back after her meeting with her boss and promises to tell her how it went.

As she was walking out of the hospital, Adrian was waiting for her. "You're shift ended an hour ago" Emma stated "Why are you still here?" He smiled and told her he had work to type up and checked up on her and saw she was here so he waited and offered her a lift home. She paused, thought about getting into a car with a stranger then decided to just do it as it saves her getting a taxi and it isn't everyday a guy waits an hour for you to offer to take her home.

She thought the drive home would be awkward but it was actually nice. They discussed their childhood's, their friends and their career aims and then as Emma was about to get out the car, he asked her if she wanted to go to Pizza Hut and he would pick her up for seven and take her home. She thought about what Liz would say because her mother would say the same thing. She decided that yes she would and let go for just one night.

As soon as she was in her house she ran up the stairs and got a shower then she dried her hair and moisturized. Then she chose a blue dress with long sleeves that wraps around and ties at the side. It wasn't too dressy but not too casual and tied her hair in a bun with a few strands down and framing her face. She also did her makeup with pink lips that looked natural with white eye-shadow with an undertone of blue. Then she topped the outfit off with a silver clutch with £40 in for her food and some drinks and added her silver heels, necklace in a heart shape with a photo of her mum and herself in and her silver stud earrings her mum bought her for her 21st birthday.

Adrian was true to his word but instead of his car it was a taxi and her knocked on her door with a single white rose and a vase to match. She quickly added water and a few pennies to make it last longer and got into the taxi. Then she noticed what he was wearing; a white shirt, black trousers and he had even brushed his hair and styled it.

They pulled up at Pizza Hut a little overdressed but perfectly dressed for each other. He opened her door, helped her out, opened the door for her and pulled out a chair once they were seated. Emma ordered a cheese flatbread pizza and Adrian a Philadelphia cheese steak stuffed crust and they both ordered a glass of Merlot. Once the food had arrived, they both talked about their favorite foods, drinks, animals and colors among other things. Once the date was over, he paid much to her surprise and found it slightly annoying as it was a lot of money and she wanted to pay for her half. He knew this and said she could pay next time which she was happy about because that meant he liked her enough for a second date. He then ordered another taxi and dropped her at home along the way as promised and left her at her door with a kiss on her cheek and got back into the taxi. She went to bed happy that night after calling Lucy and catching up and sharing the news and Lucy asked to meet at hospital after Emma's meeting to which Emma agreed to.

Emma then got ready for bed and was sound asleep until a voice rang out again "mama I'm on the sixth step"....Emma hoped it would stop but to her dismay it started again "mama I'm on the seventh step" Emma got out of bed and looked at the step and sure enough it was there. She washed her face and went back to bed and there was no more disturbances.
