What did dampen her mood however, was everything else.

To think she had thought she was going soft, becoming too sensitive to little nuances... that really wasn't the case, and she was thankful for that much at least. What was worse than that, was the sickness. Between being unable to keep her coffee down - something which had been a growing source of frustration - the blurred vision, dizzy spells and the general fatigue, she was just done. So done.

As it was... the Healer had done little to reassure her of things. If anything, he made the matter worse. There was no solution to this catastrophe, her condition was significantly and rapidly deteriorating. And as much as she didn't want to tell Gavin, figuring she could find a way to deal with it, he apparently had the right to know.

Arriving late was not something she did often, but it had been unavoidable on this particular day. Seeing Gavin at their table, Emily made her way over without any hesitation. "Hey, sorry I'm late," she greeted, placing a kiss on his cheek before sliding onto the seat opposite him. First thing first, she busied herself with unbuttoning her coat, taking glances at her midriff as she did so before shrugging off the garment and setting it on the seat beside her.


It was good he'd been working on a bit of wandless magic in his free time, it kept the food warm without drawing the attention of any muggles while he waited on his usually time militant girlfriend to show up. When she finally did, she looked like someone had dropped a year's worth of paper work on her desk and told her she was off field duty til it was done.

"It's fine." He watched her carefully as she took her seat, wondering if perhaps that operation to free those children hadn't gone as planned. No...if that failed lunch might have been cancelled and everyone would have been working over time.

With her making no moves toward the food, he lightly nudged it across the table to her. "Dull morning?" Usually worst than a busy morning in her book, that much he knew.
