Kate walked back into the hospital, she had left to garb some of bucks things considering he was going to be there for the night. He had blood clots, one in his chest and two in his leg, Kate didn't even notice that Buck was hiding the signs for her, she didn't know if she was more mad at herself or at him.
"You didn't have to go get anything, I'm only here for two days"
"Just the essentials, tooth brush and changed of clothes to come home in" she said, her voice was dry. She had been pretty quiet since he was brought in, Maddie already gave him a lecture, he was just waiting for Kate to do it next, but hours passed and she had barely said a word.
"Look I know you are mad but-
"Just leave it Buck" Kate interrupted him,
"Just yell or shout or do something, I hate when you don't say anything"
Kate whirled around "what you expect me to say Evan, oh it's okay that you didn't tell me about your leg, oh it's fine that I didnt notice, oh it's grand, you only coughed up blood and passed out. Just another day!" Her voice raised, her accent had gotten stronger,
Kate would admit after a over a year of living in LA she had adapted to the smooth accent, she too using the odd American word, but as she yelled at her sick boyfriend, her accent became significantly thicker.
"I just.. I thought it was a-..
"A leg cramp, I know but it wasn't and you didn't tell me. You were in pain and rather then tell me you suffered for the sake of your job"
"That job is my life"
"Yeah and you are mine!" She yelled, her arms dropped to her side "do you know how terrifying it was to see you vomit blood and pass out, how scared I was whilst I pumped on your chest hoping to keep your heart beating."
"I'm sorry" his voice grew quieter, guilt eating at him from the inside.
Kate sat down next to him, she took his hand and held it with both if hers "I love you so much Buck, you can't keep these things a secret, please never keep it a secret"
Buck picked up her hand, kissing it softly "I'm sorry, I promise I'll never lie about it again"
...
Days had passed, Evan was home and well. He was fine physically, he was prescribed blood thinners which resulted in the down grading of his job, Bobby told him he was permitted to light work which translates to "desk duty" so before they could take Bucks dignity, he quit.
He had not left his bed in three days, Kate was left sleeping alone at night and hated every part of it. She needed to get him out of bed, get him moving or something. Luckily for her, she had the morning off; she had a therapy appointment in a hour but she called in reinforcements, who should be there soon
