Chapter One

Robin had work for the last twenty four hours straight. She was beyond tired so instead of heading home she entered the deserted doctor's corridors. Grateful to be alone she showered, slipped on some sweats and climbed into the bunk. She let her eyes flutter shut and was soon asleep.

Patrick arrived at worked and was given Robin's cases. He had some questions so he called her, hoping to catch no luck he left her a message. Making his rounds and a one surgery later Patrick was tired. He was coming down with a head cold. Epiphany told him to go take a nap and she would page him if anything was wrong. Patrick agreed and headed towards the doctor's corridors. He smiled when he saw Robin's eyes meet his when he walked in.

"I tried calling you at home." He said sitting on the edge of the bed.

"I was too tired to drive." Robin said. "I am still too tired."

"Well then you sleep." Patrick said.

Robin sat up and felt his head.

"You have a fever." Robin said. "You must have caught the head cold going around."

"I think so, Leyla had it last week." Patrick said.

"Oh." Robin said feeling as if she was suddenly naked in front of him.

"Sorry." Patrick said. "I know it is still hard."

"No, you are allowed to date whoever." Robin said.

"I am not dating her." Patrick admitted. "I lied when I said we were sleeping together."

"Oh." Robin said. "Why?"

"Because I was mad, you broke up with me and honestly I wasn't handling it well."

"Oh." Robin said. "It hasn't been nice on my end."

"I know." Patrick said. "I am sorry I have been throwing things in your face."

"I knew you were hurt." Robin said. "I caused it so I should pay got it."

"No, I should've acted like an adult not a child." Patrick said.

"How about we leave it in the past?" Robin asked.

"Ok.' Patrick said. "But you should know I did kiss her."

"I know, on the roof after we broke up, Leyla threw it in my face." Robin said. "I asked her to run some test over because I was missing some one a patient and she like that."

"Oh, I am sorry, she has been a bit possessive after that kiss." Patrick said. "I knew I shouldn't have kissed her, but I was so angry and confused."

"Patrick you don't have to explain to me." Robin said. "If you don't want to see her I suggest you tell her, because if she tries to throw you in my face again I will rip hers off."

"I will talk with her." Patrick said. "You should get some sleep."

"Why did you come in here?" Robin asked.

"Epiphany ordered me to lay down for awhile." Patrick said.

"Well then you should." Robin said.

"Robin there is only one bed." Patrick said. "And you need it."

"Come on we can share, just grab yourself a blanket." Robin said moving over.

"Are you sure?" Patrick asked.

"Yes, you need to get some sleep and well I am too tired to take over your shift if you pass out." Robin said not admitting her wanted him near. She hadn't been able to sleep well since they broke up and the thoughts of him with another women drove her mad.

Patrick smiled and grabbed a blanket. Laying down next to Robin who was nearly out again. He covered himself with the blanket and tried to sleep. It was when Robin finally rolled over and placed her head on his chest that he was able to finally get to sleep.
