Busting tables wasn't something Emma thought she'd be doing...ever. Then again, a lot of things had changed for the young brunette. She'd moved away, a new city and a fresh start appealed to her and with no abilities, what was really their to get in the way? She could start again, not have to worry about anyone knowing her, her past or what damage she could do if she really wished to. Emma had a chance to begin a new life away from all the bullshit. Obviously there'd be some negatives, that was of course leaving Sam. They'd had their differences but she couldn't deny how much she cared about him, sadly her chosen path had set a deep wedge between them and the only way that she could fix all the things she had broken, was to leave.
Emma may not have been able to save herself, not entirely, but she could still save him by keeping as far away from him as she possibly could, even if it drove her insane.
With a new name and a new identity, 'Alison' was able to start a clean slate. She wasn't keen one really getting stuck in with a 9-5 job but waiting tables was easy and it gave a decent enough pay to get her by. Of course, she'd previously living in and out of motels right now until she could find herself a permanent residence, it was difficult for her to really get her feet off the ground because she wasn't really sure where to start. Thankfully, 'Alison' had made a few friends whilst residing in Chicago and she was able to get herself a room in an apartment owned by a girl she worked with, Crystal.
Emma was able to kiss her old life goodbye, but did hold onto things from her past, specifically Sam. Truth be told she would still call him, he'd answer and she'd hang up as soon as she heard his voice because she was too afraid of going back there. Things had taken an ugly turn and things had gotten really god damn tough for them. Emma knew moving away was good for them, better for him no doubt.
Her life certainly wasn't easy far from it in fact. The added pressure of keeping up appearances and lying to those around her was tough, it was more tough because of the things that Emma was going through herself. For the last three months she had found it harder and harder to hide, it was easy at first, three months ago but now..4 months later, it was extremely hard to hide the bulging baby bump she had rapidly grown.
Emma was pregnant, 7 months it seemed and everyday she saw herself getting bigger and her future nearing closer and closer. She was scared and alone in this, a choice she had made, but one that maybe wasn't entirely right for her afterall. Keeping the baby wasn't up for discussion, she was doing either way but by herself, it may not have been ideal.
The brunette had certainly changed her ways, she'd had to for the most part and the change was hard but for the better. It was still surreal, the idea that she would be having a child soon, scary as it was it still barely sunk in. Emma had once with the idea of telling Sam, but she knew that it'd probably cause more trouble then good and so she simply refused to consider it. She could do this by herself and would become a much stronger person for it.
It was going to be hard, no doubt, but she'd make it work.
Emma had finished her shift early as she had a hospital appointment to attend. She wasn't too keen on hospital trips because she hated people poking and prodding at her, but it was for good reason so she just dealt with it. Emma wanted to ensure everything was okay and the only way how was to go to her regular appointments. She did in fact dread the day of birth, the chances of her abilities flaring up were high, they often did when her mood changed no matter how much she had control of them. So, the idea of repressing them was highly on the cards.
She made her way down the busy street, keeping herself from colliding with any passers by, taking much more care then she ever would have in the past.
