The Fear of Loving - A Kaimelia Love Story

Part 8

Kai gently led Amelia over to the couch she was just sat on. She was speechless, she had a hundred questions flowing through her mind. "How are you here? Jake, he found you under the rubble. You should be dead, shouldn't you? Oh god, am I hallucinating? I must be, either my brain tumours back or I'm just-"
Amelia was cut off with a kiss to her lips, Kai cupped her face in their hands "Amelia! Shush! I'm sorry but shush! I swear I am perfectly okay, I've been checked out by paramedics and doctors, been given the all clear!"
Amelia smiles lightly finally absorbing the fact that their here in front of her. "You really okay?"
Kai chuckles and smirks "Honey...I'm great"
Amelia pulled Kai a bit closer wrapping her arms around their back. They pulled her on top their lap, her legs wrapping round their waist. She placed a sweet chaste kiss on their forehead.
"But that person under the rubble they had your watch on, how?"
"I gave it to this women who needed to keep checking her blood pressure, and answering your next question my blazer and bag and all that was taken by the paramedics by accident, I tried getting it back but someone needed help. Do you have anymore questions?"
Amelia shook her while playing with their hair. They rested their hands against her neck slightly rubbing. Amelia lent down tucking loose strands of hair out their face kissing their lips, tasting spots of blood. She moved her hands from their waist up onto their shoulders, hearing a small wince and groan escape their mouth. "Kai, what's wrong with your shoulder?"
"Nothing, it's barely a scratch, we should get going, I'm sure Scout's getting restless." Amelia could only look worried at this slowly placing dainty fingers on their top shirt button, gazing into their eyes waiting for permission. After confirmation she unbuttoned half their buttons sliding the shirt of their shoulders. On their right shoulder a gash about 7 inches in length carefully stitched up.

"It's not as bad as it looks"
"I did this! I caused this! You were there because of me! You are hurt because of me!" Amelia said with a sharp tone but still she was soft spoken. She got up and walked away, her back to Kai. They walked up behind her wrapping their arms around her midsection, she tried to move away but they tightened their grip. "You are not at fault, Amelia, yes I might have been there for you. But, I was going to go there anyways to grab my laptop, and if I had I would've still been in that lift when it exploded.  Now, I cannot believe I'm saying this it is so very embarrassing, yet when you told me you loved me I go out on the next floor, and jumped round like a little kid with a crush. So no you didn't almost kill me or hurt me, you saved me!" They bent down kissing the top of her head. "Okay?"
Amelia kept quiet not uttering a single word "I said, okay?" Amelia nodded gently leaning into Kai's front. She turned round so she could look into them green eyes that always seemed to shine. She lent up placing an extremely gentle, chaste kiss on their cheek. They shot a look of confusion her way "What kind of kiss is that?"they bent down and pulled her in closer and starting a long deep kiss. She reached up settling her hands in their usual place around their neck and their hands rested against her hips. She pulled away and laced her fingers with theirs, starting to drag them towards the office door. "Can we go home, please? Meredith said she'd take Scout home" Amelia basically pleaded the first part. "Of course, hon," they said while pulling her in to their side wrapping around her shoulder.

They walked through the cold hospital corridors together, Kai keeping Amelia as close to their side as possible. Almost as if they were afraid that if they let go that she might crumble. They'd seen her vulnerable but this was a whole new level she had a certain thing behind her eyes, like a cloud of sadness or despondency. Walking past the nurses station, Meredith, Maggie, Webber and Jake have a faint smile to the two, having already checked Kai fully over not letting any chance of them being even the slightest bit hurt. Amelia had to fight back tears while nestled into the side of their body feeling that ever familiar warmth radiate through to her body. They finally made it out of the hospital and Kai stopped momentarily "My cars at the hotel, well the rubble of hotel, where's yours?"
Amelia pointed it out across the parking lot thinking that if she said a single word she'd break down in tears. They led her again past dozens of cars till they reached hers and they grabbed the keys from Amelia's bag. A chirp and they both get in her car, Kai in the drivers seat and Amelia in the passenger. Kai shut their door and put the keys in the ignition, starting the car. "So, guessing it's your house, I'm afraid my place is a bit-" They were cut off by loud sobbing. To their right sat Amelia who was sobbing even harder than in the office. "I'm sorry, it's just I really thought you were dead and I kept on imagining you dead and your dead body. It was like Ryan all over again, and I can't go through that again. I just can't! This sounds so selfish, but please you can't put me in that position again, whether it's real or a mistake. You can't leave me, you can't leave Scout, he already knows who you are and I don't know how I'd explain it! I can't lose you! I don't want to lose you! Please, promise me you won't leave me!" Amelia choked out through tears now flooding. Kai almost climbed over the space between them, pulled her in until she was rested against their chest and they head their hands wrapping round her head, calmly stroking her hair. "I Promise"
