"Age 30, male.. involved in a drunk driving accident.." the nurse explained as they wheeled him out the ambulance, walking with the stretcher I examined his head."A couple head lacerations.. nothing a couple stitches won't fix.. let's get some fluids going-" I held the pale intoxicated man's face in my hands, my eyes scanning over the gashes.
"I want a real doctor!" The man suddenly yelled, causing me to flinch a bit as I tensed up and retracted my hand a bit.
"Sir, I'm a real doctor and I can get you real help." I reassure the man, biting my tongue as he grabs my wrist.
"Sir.. just let go and I can he-" my attempts of help get cut of by a swift punch to the face, I yelp as I stumble back.
Cristina stops in her tracks beside Burke, her mouth slightly agape as she sees her friend take the hit. Alex on the other hand picks up his pace when he witnesses the scene play out.
I stumble back, my hands reaching out for whatever can prevent me from falling.. but all I seem to grab is air. I grimace waiting for impact as I fall back onto some type of machinery, immediately everything going black.
Alex sprints toward his friend slumped on the floor, a couple nurses tending to the drunk man and some to her. He kneels as he slowly pulls Y/n in his arms, barking orders at the nurses as he stands. With Y/n in his arms he paces toward help, his gaze not leaving the drunk.
"Why is there an unconscious Y/n in your arms?" Izzie questions walking up to Alex, her pace fastens to keep up as her eyes haven't yet seen the blood.
"And why is she bleeding!?" George says popping up, concern etched on his face as his eyes examined for anymore injuries.
My eyes barely opened as multiple muffled voices spoke around me, with blurred visions I squinted as I felt a headache coming on. Only understanding a couple words spoke to me, I slipped back into unconsciousness.
......
"A couple stitches.. she's needs to rest... we've given her-" I catch parts of the conversation going on, my eyelids heavy as I slowly begin to open them.. the feeling of a itchy gown rubbing against my skin.
"Karev, where am I.." I spoke, my tone irritated and confused as I looked up at the man. His eyes were soft and held sympathy, not his usual look.
"Just make sure she rests, Karev." the chief says, nodding a bit as he exits the room.. my eyes flickered from him to the hospital bed.
"That man.." I begin, trying to sit up and slide mt legs off the bed.. causing Alex to softly but firmly ease me back into bed.
"Is being treated, in a room they won't let me in for very good reasons." he responds, his tone low and angry as he glances at my forehead.
"What?" I ask, feeling up my forehead as my fingers graze the stitches.. I slightly throw my head back and groan in annoyance.
"Don't worry it doesn't look back.. you don't look back." Alex responds, his eyes on my stitches then trailing down to my face.. his gaze lingering on me for a moment to long.
"I get punched for doing my job, seriously.. can I catch a break?" I respond, ignoring his stare as I curl up in my hospital bed.. wincing a bit at my sore body.
"Yeahhh.. at least you know you look good in stitches." He responds with a classic smirk, the one that makes me feel like I suddenly need medical attention.
"Are your flirting to make me feel better, Karev?" I question, subtly smirking back as I sit up slightly.
"I don't know, is it working?" He questions back, my smile grows as he pulls up a seat beside my bed. He sits down.. little distance left between him and my bed.
"I don't know, keep trying and find out." I respond, sitting up fully as he laughs a bit. He goes to respond but his face falls as he looks at me.
"Y/n, are you alright?" He asks as I struggle to respond, but quickly I turn to a near trash can. Retching as I held the trash can..Alex quickly took the job of holding my hair back, yelling for a nurse.
"I want a CT scan on her right now, page Shepard!" He yells, his tone changing as he turns to me.. his hand still holding my hair as I feel dizziness takes over.
"That's my girl.. just let it out." He comforts me, a attempt to talk me through it. He moves closer as I try to mutter something.. then crashing into unconsciousness. The last thing I see is Alex wrapped around me as a panicked Derek enters the room.
