“Kate!” Rick said catching her before her limp body fell onto the floor.
“Espo call 911!” Rick shouted as Javi came out of the break room.
“Whoa bro what happened?!” Espo said pulling out his phone,
“I don’t know she just fainted.” Rick said beginning to freak out.
“Ambulance will be here in 5 minutes.” Espo said kneeling down beside Rick.
“Come on Kate.” Rick muttered shaking her trying to make her wake up,
“We have to carry her bro.” Javi said after a minute, “The stretcher can’t fit in the elevator.”
Rick nodded and picked up his wife’s limp body, a small crowd had gathered watching as Rick carried Kate towards the elevator followed by Espo and Ryan.
At the hospital.
“Family for Katherine Castle Beckett?” A doctor called
“Here.” Rick said standing up.
“Ok well there is no damage done to her or the baby. They are both perfectly fine. The reason for Katherine’s fainting was simply low sugar levels. So as her husband please make sure that she eats regularly and drinks plenty of water and juice to avoid this happening again.”
“Can I see her?” Rick asked,
“She’s in room 247, she might be asleep so don’t wake her.”
Rick walked down the empty corridor looking for room 247, Espo and Ryan were following.
They finally found it,
“You go bro, we’ll be in, in a few.” Espo said leaning against the wall,
“Ok thanks guys.” Rick muttered as he pushed open the door.
Kate was laying on the bed peacefully, her eyes were closed and she was breathing deeply. She had an IV tube in her hand and there was a grey Pulse Oximeter on her index finger.
Every few second there would be a beep from the heart monitor,
Rick took a seat on one of the grey plastic chairs and took Kate’s hand. He started to trace small circles on her hand with his thumb,
“Hey.” Kate said hoarsely making Rick jump.
“Hey Kate.” He said looking at her. Her face was a bit pale and her hair was a mess.
“Ugh what happened?” She asked,
“You fainted from low sugar levels, you gave me such a bad scare.” Rick said,
“I’m so sorry babe, I should have ate that breakfast in the morning.”
“I thought we were going to lose the baby.” Rick muttered,
“Nope never, I’m not ever going to let anything happen to our baby.”
“Me neither.” Rick mumbled placing a light kiss on her hand.
“Espo and Ryan are outside and Lanie is on her way.” Rick informed her,
“Have you rang Alexis, Martha and my dad?”
“Yeah, your dad is cancelling his fishing trip and shall be here in a few hours. Alexis is coming as soon as her classes are over and Mother is finishing her acting class.”
