Heartache • Tk Twin Sister (A Fox 911 Lone Star/ Fox 911 Fanfic)

Chapter 26

"Hard times make you love the view
Right now think I'm getting through
Only way that I can"

──────⊱⁜⊰──────

Marj had her first Kitten Crusher game this morning and I promised her I would make it but here I am sitting in the doctor's office with Myles because I also promised him that as soon as I got back from San Angelo, I would reschedule my check up, and today is the only day that the doctor has a small opening.

But I don't know, things between us have been awkward since I got back from San Angelo. Probably because I have yet to tell him about the job offer, and yet to tell him that I'm actually considering it. I told Tk and Carlos a couple of days ago, which then spread to Judd and then Judd told the rest of the team. So now everyone knows and everyone is waiting for an answer.

"Your heart looks okay, despite what you just went through, but your blood work still shows no traces of medication. Which is insane, and the only thing that I can think of is—"

"I take my medicine every day! Why do people not believe me?" I throw my hands up in frustration but shut up when he holds a hand out to me.

"I think that the medicine is getting to used to your blood, and your body so as soon as you take it, it just blends in. I guess."

Myles sits up and looks at the doctor. "I didn't even think that was possible."

"I didn't either, and to be completely honest I'm not convinced it is. But multiple people have backed up your statement that you take your medication, and you keep getting refills so obviously you doing something right." I nod my head and Dr. Kraig spins back around to the computer screen to get a closer look at the screen.

"I want you to do an MRI today with Dr. Montina, just so I can get a little more of a clearer image of your heart."

I squint my eyes in confusion "I thought you just said it was doing good, whats wrong with it?"

The doctor zooms in on some words on the tablet and slightly shakes his head. "I said it looked okay. Okay is not Good. Good is good, and your heart right now is not good. It's okay. Kinda."

"Are you seeing something wrong?"

He spins around and then looks at me again.

"The problem is, is that you are a 25, 26-year-old with Ventricular fibrillation, and situs inversus, who needs a heart transplant, but the chances of that happening are one in a million." My eyes slightly widen at his bluntness but he just shrugs his shoulders and smiles.

"But you're healthy, and you exercise every day, and you eat good, so maintaining that is the best thing you can do right now."

Myles and I both nod our heads and watch as he picks a sticky note off of the counter and writes something on it.

"Floor 5 room E103, tell them Dr. Kraig sent you. They are expecting you."

He stands up, so Myles and I stand up with him. He opens the door and then holds it for us two and then follows us out.

"I won't see you for a couple of weeks unless I see something that is important, but I don't think I will so have a good week," I mutter a thank you to him as he walks away from us.

"You don't have any classes today?" I ask Myles as we lean against the walls of the elevator as we go up to the 5th floor.

"Yeah, 2 and then a 24 hour shift."

"Same, well 18 hours left now." I look at the time on my watch and sigh.
