Will got up in the morning feeling horrible. He thought that it was him sleeping late last night wondering if he should give the fight up on Emma. However, him throwing up and sneezing and coughing immediately gave the hint to him that he was sick. He didn't want to go to work today and let Emma see him like this. She'll probably stay away from him the whole day knowing that germs have infested his whole body. So he called Figgins up and told him that he was not feeling good today and he needed a substitute. A loud roar of joyness filled the phone and he could hear Sue expressing her joy.

"Typical Sue," Figgins said with a disgusted tone. "Anyway, hope you feel better. But take as much time as you need. Don't want you infesting this school." With that, he hung up.

As the day progressed on, life for Will could not have been any worse. He hated being sick. He became cranky because of it and there was nothing to do. Worst of all, doing nothing gave him a chance to think. And that meant thinking of Emma. And her boyfriend. He seemed like a nice guy and all, but it just pained him seeing Emma with a smile on her face, knowing that Carl was giving her all that joy. And everyday, after school, he sees her get in his red Corvette without a care if there are germs on there at all. He shook his head.

"No, I can't think like this! I just want her to be happy!"

He looked at the clock. Wow, time does pass by when you're on deep thought. School must have ended an hour ago. Just as he was thinking of what the glee club must have been doing, he heard a knock on the door. He got up and headed for the door. When he opened the door, he saw a beautiful red-haired, doe-eyed woman standing in front of him. That smile that she gave him, made his heart melt and how he didn't kiss her then, he didn't know.

To break the silence, he immediately cleared his throat and said, ". What are you doing here? Was there a meeting I didn't know about?" That was probably it, since he couldn't think of why she would be here.

"Oh no... Not at all. I heard that you were sick. Actually, everyone heard about it. Sue kept yelling it out during lunch. Well I haven't seen her that happy in ages. You've never missed a day of school and I just came by to ask how you were doing. Can I come in?", she asked.

"Oh I'm being rude! I'm sorry. It's just, you were the last person I expected to see today. You know, with all the germs and stuff." he replied as he stepped back to let her in.

"Actually, I've been seeing a therapist. It's been a slow progress but I'm getting much better. Two days ago, I've finally had been able to eat in a restaurant. My therapist was beaming with happiness when she found out. That was why I was late. I would have been here earlier but I had a session." she mumbled.

"Oh that's great. I am really proud of you." As he said that, he could see her turn away as a blush started to appear on her cheeks. "I really am. You've been trying to solve your OCD and trying new things like eating in a restaurant. I presume you haven't been in therapy long and here you are!"

"Oh, well thank you." Just as she said that, she forgot about the chicken soup she brought him. "Oh, I almost forgot! Here..." she handed him the chicken soup that she made.

"Oh thank you so much. Wow this is too much. Umm thank you." he beamed.

Well, I better get going. I have to finish the SAT Preps. Well I hope you feel better. Good luck on everything." she quietly said.

"Oh yeah you too." He took out his hand to shake her hand. Instead, he was greeted by a hug. It definitely surprised him but he didn't mind. He missed holding her in his arms and smelling the heavenly lavender scent that always made him smile. She eventually stepped back, releasing the hug. Will's face dropped into a disappointment, but smiled to try to hide it. Emma looked at him and smiled as well.

"Will we're best friends. I'm not going to shake your hand. Plus, my therapist has been making me a hugger lately." she said with a sarcastic tone. "well anyway, see you later."

With that, she was gone. Will closed the door and sighed. He wanted her to stay longer but, he smiled in contentment that she was actually there, caring about him, and giving him a hug. He decided to go to bed early. Since he was sick, that was probably the best thing to do. So, he showered, brushed his teeth, jumped on his bed, turned off his lights, and went to bed. Tomorrow, was going to be a long day.

Three hours later, Will was awoken by the ring of his phone. He awoke groggily and cursing at the person who could have called him at this late of an hour. After a hesitant moment, he decided to answer the phone. He looked at his phone and noticed that it was Emma calling him. He quickly answered the phone..

"Hey Emma! Is there a problem?" he asked sweetly but with a sleepy tone.

"Is this Will Schuester?" a person he has not heard before asked.

"Yes this is him. Can I ask who this is?" he asked cautiously wondering why this person was calling him with Emma's cellphone!

"This is the Lima Regional Hospital. You are the emergency contact for Miss Emma Pillsbury. She was ran over by the car and is now in a coma."
