"Hook, what did you just say?" Chris said as she stared at Hook in
shock. Oh, he couldn't have said what she thought that she had heard. Her
last relationship had definitely been more than a bit weird but this would
top that one, her boyfriend suddenly deciding that he was gay out of the
blue.
"I said I'm in love with Stegman Isn't he the most gorgeous thing that you've ever seen?" Hook said, that odd giggle slipping into his voice once more.
Chris felt even more shock wash over her although she wasn't sure how that was possible. Okay, maybe she could take Hook suddenly deciding he was gay and dumping her for a man but for Steg? Hook hated him!
"Hook?" Something had to be wrong with him. Either something was wrong with him or something was very wrong with her for her to keep ending up in relationships like this. "Hook, you don't love...." Oh, Chris couldn't even bring herself to say Steg's name. She looked up at Hook with tears sparkling in her eyes. Had she ever told him how much she loved him?
Chris was afraid that she hadn't and now...
"Hook?" No, there had to be something that she could do to fix this. She loved Hook and she wasn't going to lose him like this, not when they had just found each other. The way he was acting, the giggling, that wasn't Hook. She wouldn't even let herself thing about the Stegman situation right now. "What happened to you?" She murmured softly as she frantically thought, trying to think of a way to fix this situation. There had to be something. After a moment, she came to a decision and reached out for Hook, grabbing him and drawing him into and embrace, her lips pressing against his, first gently and then deeper. She would worry about how to remove any possible germs from Stegman later. She had to snap Hook out of this!
Suddenly, his hands came up and to her shock, before Chris could do anything, he shoved her, pushing her away from him. "Get away from me!"
he demanded as he glared at Chris. "What do you think you're doing?"
"Trying to bring you to your senses!" Chris yelled. She couldn't believe that Hook had pushed her. She had half a mind to storm off the elevator and just leave him. Let him carry on like this and get locked up by Steg. Her feelings for Hook overrode that, though. She couldn't just abandon him, not when she knew that something was wrong with him. "Hook,
don't you remember anything about us? You invited me down to your Kingdom,
remember?"
"Why would I invite you down there?" Hook said as he continued to glare at Chris. "You're nothing but a pathetic...."
Suddenly, Chris's hand was in motion, slapping him hard enough across the face to send him staggering to the other side of the elevator.
"I'm the woman who loves you, you idiot and if I didn't know that this isn't really you acting like this...." Every instinct that Chris had was saying to flee before she could end up hurt once more but her heart was telling her no so strongly. She couldn't just abandon Hook. She loved him too much. "We're going to see Mrs. Druse. I just hope that she can contact Mary and find out what's wrong with you!"
"I don't want to see Mrs. Druse! The woman's an idiot and should be thrown out of this hospital! You heard what Steg said about her and Steg's always...."
"Hook, listen to me. You are NOT yourself right now so you better just be quiet until I can figure a way to fix you. You are going to see Mrs. Druse and you better be praying that she can figure out how to fix what's wrong with you. And if you don't see her, then I'm going to call an orderly and have you escorted to the Psych floor where the patients seem to have a habit of being murdered! You are not yourself and I'm not letting you run all over the hospital acting like this!" Chris just hoped that Mrs. Druse would be able to do something
