So today is my first day back on the team after my injury. Im happy to finally be back...I mean it was really nice of Newt giving my things to do, but I belong in the field. I got cleared a week ago, but Becker and Matt have been pushing me to my limits to make sure Im ready to be back...and lets just say I smashed their stupid little tests.

Things with me and Stephen couldnt be any better, and being able to work with him again is great! Its early morning and I wake up before Stephen does. I grab my gym clothes and get dressed in the bathroom. I wash my face and tie my hair into a ponytail, before going back into the bedroom to wake Stephen up. I throw a pillow a him and jab his ribs. He grunts and covers his face with a pillow. I laugh a little.   "Come on Stephen, were going for a run like you said!" His only reaction is looping his arms around me and pulling me down to the bed on top of him. He starts tickling me...lets just say that stopped fairley quickly after I accidentally wacked him in the face. He quickly releases me and stares at me with a raised eyebrow. "What? Im not responsible for any injuries that accure when Im being tickled!" He just smiles and puts his hands up in surrender. In toss him his sport clothes and I go to the kitchen to some water and fruit. Stephen joins me a few minutes later and we head out, grabbing water, keys and our phones on the way.

We run for around 20 minutes before we stop and take a break. This is where it happened. I think to myself. All the momories and flash backs come into my head and Its not untill Stephen talks to me, I realise Im crying.

"Hey, are you okay?" Stephen asked, placing his hand on my shoulder. I look at him, deciding if I should tell him. "Th...this..is...where it happened" I choke out in barley a whisper, Im surprised Stephen even heard me. "What happend?" He asked, rubbing my back. "My...my parents and I were driving home from a day out together...and...and...this drunk driver came out of nowhere and hit us." I stop and take a deep breathe. "The i...impact...kill...killed my parents instantly...I was in the back, Had a broken leg and some internal bleeding. Lester, took me in being my uncle and all. Hes raised me ever since" I say, bursting into hysterics. Stephen wraps me in his arms and whispers comforting things in my ears like, its okay, Im so sorry, I love you. All of this is new to me having someone care so much. We stay together until Stephen's phone rings. I sit down on a bench whilst Stephen asnwers his phone. He comes back a few minutes later and kneels down in front of me. "That was Becker, theres a new anomaly, they need me. I know he knew so I told him about this morning and we said you stay in the car, yeah?" I nod, not wanting to do anything. I can manage my emotions, but sometimes it all gets too much for me to handle and it all just hits me "Hes going to pick us up her any minute now, so no time to change" He laughs a little and places a kiss on my forehead.

Not a moment later Becker pulls up and we get into the car. I sit in the back and kindley accept the blanket Becker hands me. Everyone knows, mainly Becker and Lester, that after everything that happened this morning its best for me to sleep.

Stephens p.o.v:
I check on Kat, who fell alseep quite qucikly, before grabbing and EMD from the boot and heading over to the rest of the team. Me and Becker head in together. "So what actually happened this morning?" Becker asked me as we sweep through our floor. "We went for a run and stopped at the bridge. We took a breather and she started crying. I asked her what was wrong, and she told me about her th accident and then you called. Ive never seen her like this Becker, what do I do?" We stop walking and I look at Becker. "You be there for her, no matter what (quote from Chicago Fire)." I nod and he pats my shoulder before continuing our search.

TIME SKIP...AFTER THE ANOMALY:
I put away my EMD before heading over to Matt. "Hey Matt, I going to take Kat home, I can come back after..." Matt puts his hand up to stop me talking. "Mate, take her home and stay there with her, she needs you now more than ever" I pat his shoulder before signalling Becker over to the car. We get in and he drives us home. I carefully pick up Kat, who is fast asleep, whilst Becker goes to unlock our front door. I thanks Becker and he leaves, not before telling me to call if we need anything. I gently take Kat to out room and lay her down on the bed. I remove out shoes before climbing into bed next to her and pulling up the covers. I silently pray and hope that Kat will be better tomorrow, it breaks my heart to see her like this.
