"Hey beautiful" Jackson says walking over to me at the front desk

"Hey" I sigh dropping my charts on the desk and leaning against it

"What's wrong with you" he says noticing the the tone of my voice

"Nothing, I'm just exhausted" I say. I barely got any sleep last night because after only being home for a little while, I got paged to come back in for a surgery so right now I'm only functioning on 2 hours of sleep and I felt like a walking zombie. I had absolutely no energy.

"Long night" he asks

"Yes. I thought after I finished surgery I would have enough time to take a quick nap, but the surgery ran way longer then I expected, so I didn't get the chance to. Now I'm exhausted and I have a migraine" I yawn

"You should go try to get some rest while you have a little free time before your next surgery" he suggests

"I can't. I need to go do a post op check on my patient" I tell him, giving him a kiss before walking away to the patients room.

"Why are you still in here" I ask seeing Riggs in the room examining our patient. He joined me to operate on the patient this morning, but I thought he would be out of the room by the time I came back to check in him

"Just doing a post-op exam" he says

"Great" I mumble dryly

"Dr. Garcia, is this Mr. McColl" Penny asks walking into the patients room

"Yes, Blake. Why" I ask folding my arms. I was not in the mood to deal with Penny today and most days I don't have to, so I was confused as to why she was even in my presence at the moment.

"The patients wife is down stairs" she says

"Why are you telling me this. Where's Edwards" I frown

"Dr. Webber mixed us up today. I pulled your service" she says

"No" I shake my head

"No" she asks

"No, where's the wife" I ask

"She's downstairs in admitting" she says

"Okay, you can leave now" I say motioning for her to leave the room.

"Dr. Webber told me..." she begins to say before I stop her

"Tell Dr. Webber I said no" I frown, before she walks out of the room

"You don't like a lot of people do you" Riggs asks

"Not really" I shake my head. After Riggs finishes examining the patient we go downstairs to update the wife

"Surgery? Oh God" his wife gasps as we tell her what happened

"Well, his heart rhythm had become very erratic, probably due to electrical shock so I had to implant a pacemaker" Riggs explains

"Oh no. Poor Griffin" she sighs

"The other concern is Griffin suffered a brain bleed, which I operated on" I say
