Chapter 12

Emily was so embarrassed as she sat there on the floor waiting for Steve to bring her insulin. She hadn’t eaten lunch even knowing that was a big no-no, but she hadn’t been hungry and figured she would be okay. How wrong she was. The stress lately played a big role in her reaction to ignoring her health.

“Hey, you okay?” Hunter was on the floor with her, tilting his head low to stare up at her.

She only nodded. All she needed was her insulin and some crackers. Then she could eat a decent meal. Her main concern was preventing a diabetic coma and those few steps usually did the trick. She just hoped it wasn’t too late. Her eyesight grew blurry with that tunnel vision view that she hated so much because it warned her she was about to pass out.

Steve entered, handing her the bag. Her hands shook so badly that Hunter pulled out the container. Slade grabbed it, knelt down and lifted Emily’s shirt. Quickly, he administered the shot into her stomach.

“Have you ever gone into a diabetic coma?” Slade asked, handing her a cracker and some orange juice Garrett had grabbed from the kitchen.

Emily nodded but held up one finger. She felt too weak to talk.

“Does this usually work for you?” Slade asked. While his tone was level, his eyes looked concerned.

Emily drank the juice like a woman dying of thirst. Some dribbled down her chin. Lowering the glass, she wiped her chin and closed her eyes. “Yes.”

“Is she going to be okay?” Worry laced Hunter’s words.

Slade ignored him but Emily opened her eyes. “I’ll be fine. Just need a minute,” she replied, her words coming easier.

“How long since you’ve eaten?” Slade asked.

“This morning,” Emily answered, knowing by his expression that was the wrong answer.

“Obviously by the look on your face you know that’s not good for someone who is diabetic,” Slade lectured as he loomed over her, the frown on his face unmistakable.

Emily nodded, relieved her vision was slowly coming back to focus. “Yes, I do know, and I’m usually really good about eating and taking my medicine. I’m sorry.” She looked up at Garrett, who was surely worried about Janna. Guilt rode her hard knowing she was taking over the doctor’s time. “I’m really sorry.”

“Don’t be sorry, Emily.” Garrett smiled down at her. “Just make sure you take care of yourself. Janna is sleeping right now and doing fine. Leda is up there with her.”

She knew he was being nice. Sitting up straighter, she wondered if she should try to stand yet. Her sugar was regulating somewhat, but not even close to where it needed to be. At least she didn’t feel like she was going to pass out anymore.

“I’m fine.” She nodded to Slade. Turning her gaze to Hunter, she frowned. He stared at her with a weird expression on his face. “I think I can stand.”

“I think you still need a minute or two,” Slade suggested when Jill brought her more orange juice.
