When Patients Attack [Connor Rhodes]

Description: A patient assaults Y/N.

Warnings: Blood, assault. 

"Dr. Y/L/N, this is Louie Gramza, unconscious forty year old male, had a seizure in the ambulance on the way here. Five centimeter laceration across the forehead, Abdominal Contusions. BP and Heart Rate are slightly elevated." The paramedic finishes his handover and Y/N starts giving orders. She takes her penlight out and pulls Louie's eyelids back.

"Dr. Y/L/N his oxygen levels are low." A nurse says.

"Start him on oxygen and get me a Neurosurgery Consult, his left pupil is enlarged."

"Yes doctor." The nurse says. She runs out of the room to get to the phone.

While Y/N and April are getting ready to clean and stitch the laceration, Dr. Halstead runs into the room and asks if he could steal April for an emergency.

"Go ahead. I got this." On their way out the door to the trauma bay closes. She turns back to Louie and grabs the antiseptic. "Ok, Louie, lets get this stitched up."

§§§

After finishing the stitches, Y/N was told there was a wait on the Neuro Consult, so she started cleaning up the kit she used. She had her back turned to Louie, so she didn't notice when he woke up, and started to stand. He bumped the cart beside him and she quickly turned around.

"Louie, you're ok, but you should really get back in bed." She places her hands on his shoulders and tries to persuade him into at least sitting down. Louie grunts and pushes her back. She stumbles but doesn't fall. "Louie, get back in the bed now." She states firmly.

Louie suddenly shoves her into the bins and she falls. Then he grabs her and pushes her onto the gurney and she kicks and scratches at him. "Louie!" He grabs her by the neck and shoves her into the wall again, but this time into the glass cabinet. The glass shatters and Y/N can feel some of it get stuck in her neck and head, but she still fights to get him off. He grabs her by the neck and pushes her head into the window. It cracks, and she struggles to get a breath in. He does it a second and a third time before she goes unconscious.

§§§

"Hey April. Where's Y/N?" Connor asks as he stands by the nurses station.

"Last time I saw her was when we were in Baghdad treating a patient, but I got pulled."

"That was over an hour ago." Connor states. "No one has seen her since then?"

"I don't know, I'm sorry." April shrugs.

Connor decides to go look for her, so when he walks through the door, he is stunned at what he sees.

His fiancée. On the floor. Beat to hell.

"I need some help in here!" He yells. Immediately, April, Natalie, Will and a few other nurses join him in the room.

"Oh my god." April mutters before going to help Louie, knowing Connor will take care of Y/N. Will goes to help Connor as well.

"Get me that backboard! We're taking her into another room."

Y/N had her eyes closed, because her head felt like it was going to explode. She couldn't move and couldn't hear anything, so her eyes shot open as soon as Will and Connor rolled her onto her back. They both tried to talk to her, but all she heard was ringing, no words, sounds, nothing.

"Y/N, what happened?" Connor asks. She just looks at him with wide, confused eyes. Will looks at Connor and they share a look. "Can you move? Can you speak?"

They finally get her into another trauma room and start examining her.

"Her neck is bruised and swollen, she needs an airway evaluation." Will says, Natalie joins and pushes Connor out of the way.

While the doctors work on her, Y/N brings her right hand to her left ring finger.

It's gone.

"Y/N your lung is collapsing, we're going to need to push a chest tube in." Will tries telling her, but she still can't hear a single thing.

Maggie then rushes into the trauma room pulling her gloves on. Y/N and Maggie have a mother-daughter relationship. Y/N's parents were doctors here and she'd see Maggie all of the time.

"Hi, sweetie, follow my finger with your eyes ok?" Maggie says. She puts her finger in front of the doctors face and she follows it. Knowing that's what Maggie wanted her to do because that was their protocol. Maggie goes to grab a penlight when Y/N grabbed her hand. She used her right hand to point at her ring finger. Maggie looks down and realizes the beautiful ring is gone. "Connor! Her ring is gone!"

He walks up beside them and looks. "I don't care about the ring, it can be replaced. I only care about her right now."

"She loves that ring, you gave it to her."

Connor nods and his eyes widen. "Wait, did she hear you? Did she tell you her ring is gone?"

"I think she heard me, and no she grabbed my hand and pointed. Why? Has she not been following you guys?"

"No, she seems almost confused." Connor walks around to the other side and gives Will room to place the tube. He touches her jaw and Y/N immediately cringes. "Her jaws dislocated. I need to set it."

"You can't Connor." Natalie says.

"Have any of you set a jaw before?" He challenges. The other two shake their heads. "I'm doing it." He grabs gauze to place under his fingers and then grips it. "This is going to hurt."

POP

Tears well up in Y/N's eyes and Connor grabs her hand.

§§§

Connor sits in the chair beside her bed. She had just gotten out of surgery and was still asleep. While she was in surgery Connor went back to find her ring. It was mixed in with a pile of glass shards.

"She's going to so happy you found that." Maggie says as she stands in the doorway.

Connor looks around the room and tears gather in the corner of his eyes.

"I don't understand why he'd do that to her."

"He had a Epidural Hematoma. Y/N requested a Neuro Consult, but everything was a mess and the nurse didn't get it sent. She stayed with him because that's what she thought was going on."

"And this damn ring, it's all she cared about."

"She cares about it because it's from you, and she absolutely loves you. You're her favorite person."

Connor chuckles and wipes his tears. "I really do not deserve that woman."

Y/N taps Connor's hand, trying to get his attention.

"Hey, how are you feeling? Can you hear now?" She nods and makes a thumbs up. Connor smiles and presses a kiss to her forehead. "Look what I found." He pulls out the ring and her face lights up. She holds her left hand out for him to put it on her finger. "I also got this for you." He hands her a small dry-erase board and a marker. 

Y/N grabs it and turns it away from him. After a few moments she turns it around again. “I love you” is written with a heart besides it. 

“I love you too.”

Mistakes [Jay Halstead & Will Halstead]

Description: Y/N and Jay are in a secret relationship. Will likes Y/N and makes a move on his brothers girl.

Y/N and Jay had been secretly dating for four months now, and it was going relatively well. They'd spend the night and most days off together, and have little dates at home. Which is what they'd done last night.

Y/N locks her apartment door and follows Jay into the hallway.

"Ready?" Jay asks. Y/N nods and they interlace their fingers before they start walking.

Jay walks Y/N to her car and they stand outside of it for a few seconds.

"Be careful today please. I don't need you showing up in the ED with a GSW."

"Can't make any promises, but I'll try my best." He chuckles then kisses her forehead. "You be careful too. Don't try to fight grown men if they are on steroids."

"Will do." Y/N laughs. She looks at her watch and sighs. This was her least favorite part of the day. "I'll see you later, ok?" Jay nods and gives her one last kiss before he opens her door for her and closes it once she gets in and starts the vehicle. He doesn't make his way to his vehicle until she's made it out of the parking lot.

§§§

Y/N and Will were working on a young boy who'd been brought in, obviously assaulted. They'd called for the police to come to the hospital, but then they got dragged into questioning from the head of the hospital.

They'd finally made it into the break room for they're lunch when Y/N caught Will staring at her.

"You ok Halstead?" She asks as she sits down next to him.

"Yeah." He clears his throat and looks away. "Just thinking about some things."

"What things? I could probably help." Y/N offers and sits her lunch on the coffee table.

"Well. I uh-." He hesitates. "There's this girl I like. I've liked her for a while now, but I don't know much about her, like if she's single, because she tends to like having her business broadcasted to the whole city of Chicago." He pauses. "She sort of acts like she might feel the same way, but I'm not sure if it's just how it seems to me."

Y/N thinks for a minute.

"I could tell him how I found out Jay liked me. I mean telling one person about us wouldn't be terrible, besides, he's his brother."

"Well, you could try making a move on her, but a subtle one, you know? So it's like if she responds well to it, she most definitely is attracted to you, but if not, she'll think of it as a friendly gesture." Y/N explains. Will nods and they sit there for a few moments in silence before Y/N starts to speak again. "I actually want to tell you something. I'm-." She gets cut off by Will smashing his lips onto hers. Y/N squeaks and jumps up from the couch. She covers her mouth with her hand. "-Dating your brother!" She finishes.

§§§

Jay has seen it all. He was the Detective sent to get information from the boy, and Maggie had told him where both you and Will were.

Well, he didn't see it all. Just the part that makes it look like Y/N kissed his brother.

For the rest of the day, Y/N didn't hear anything from Jay, and when she went to his place that evening, she didn't expect grumpy Jay.

"Hey, what's wrong?" Y/N asks as she sees Jay's grumpy demeanor.

"You should know." He states coldly.

"Ok?" She drags.

Had he seen what happened?

"You kissed my brother."

Yep. He saw.

"Jay. That wasn't at all what it looked like." Y/N says.

"Well to me, it looked like exactly what I saw." Jay retorts.

"I didn't want you to see it." Y/N whispers and rubs her temples.

"So you did kiss Will?!"

"No! Of course not! Will said he was having trouble telling if a girl he liked felt the same way, and I decided to tell him about us to use you as an example, but before I could get it out he kissed me!" Y/N exclaims, using her hands for special effect. "I'd never do that to you, and neither would Will! It was a mistake."

"But, you guys were so close to each other-." Jay cuts himself off.

"I was just trying to be a good friend, Jay." She says softly. "I love you. I'd never, ever, do that to you."

Jay looks at her, surprised.

That was the first time she's told him she loves him.

"It's ok. I get it." Jay says. "I guess I was just worried that I lost you to my own brother." He admits.

"No, never." Y/N hugs him and Jay just melts from her warm presence.

"And by the way. I love you too."

Black Ice [Connor Rhodes] 🎄

Description: Connor and Y/N meet in the ER on Christmas Eve.

Warnings: Car crash, injury.

A/N: Day 8 of 12 Days of Christmas!

Of course it had to dump snow on Christmas Eve in Chicago. When else would be a convenient time?

Snow causes everyone to drive even worse than normal and there is black ice everywhere.

The Emergency Room had been packed all day with general sickness patients, falls, trauma, literally anything that could get thrown at Chicago Med's staff was getting thrown, plus more.

There had been another accident on the highway and Connor was pulled from Cardio to help out.

His first patient had literally just been wheeled in on the stretcher as he walked in. A woman around his age, all banged up and unconscious, connected to a Cardiac Monitor, showing she is having some Tachycardia.

"Twenty-Eight year old female unconscious, and tachycardic. She was in the accident on the exit ramp." The paramedic says.

They lift her onto the bed and lay her flat. A few nurses join and quickly switch her to their monitors.

"We'll stick this cut on her forehead up and let's get a MRI and CT of her head, make sure she doesn't have any internal injuries. Also order a low dose of Propanol, that should help her heart rate." Connor orders.

"Yes Dr. Rhodes." The nurse replies and walks out of the room.

Connor grabs a suture kit and pulls a stool up beside the woman.

"Alright, lets get this cut stitched up."

§§§

After the dose of Propanol, imaging, and stitching were done, the woman's heart rate went down and it was determined that she didn't have any brain injury and the unconsciousness is most likely just a result of "fight or flight".

Connor kept checking in on her every chance he could.

He didn't know why, but something just pulled his interest to her.

It was around ten thirty in the evening when she finally woke up. The nurses paged him and he made his way down quickly.

He knocks on the door before entering. Maggie is in the room getting the woman a drink.

"Dr. Rhodes, this is Y/N Y/L/N. She is a interior designer here in Chicago." Maggie says.

"Hi Y/N, I'm Dr. Rhodes. I've been taking care of you since your accident earlier this evening. How are you feeling?" Connor asks as he takes a pen light out to check her eyes.

"I'm feeling ok. Just a little sore." Y/N replies.

He puts the light away and sits on the stool near her bed.

"Well, you are doing really good. You just have a cut on your forehead that we stitched up and when you were brought in your heart rate was high. Is that normal for you?"

"Yeah, I was anxious while driving and I worked myself up I guess." She replies quietly.

"It happens to the best of us. I flipped my car into a ditch one winter during college." Connor says, trying to make her feel better about the situation.

She lets out a light chuckle and smiles at him. "Yeah I guess it does."
