WHAT I NEED
"So you're here", Burke said looking up at her solemnly.
"I'm here" Cristina quickly answered averting her eyes from Burkes studying gaze, she looked at the machine next to him, not really looking at it, but just trying to find something else to say, something that wouldn't make her cry.
"Denny Duquette died", Cristina changed topics, "and Izzie quit the program"
"I knew what she was going to do…I knew why…" Burke started,
"We all knew why, she loved him, she was willingly to put her career on the line for Denny", realizing that she had brought up a subject too close to home, Cristina's gaze turned back to that of the machine next to Burke
"Ahh", Burke winced in pain. Cristina looked over at Burke, for the first time meeting his eyes,
"Are you all right, do you need some more painkillers", she picked up his chart, "ill get someone to give you something".
Burke met her eyes again, "no I don't need pain killers, you're here now, and I have what I need", Cristina looked down while Burke maintained his gaze, not giving in to her ignoring this, her feeling, his feelings.
"I have everything I need to", Cristina mumbled quickly meeting Burkes eyes, then looking away.
"Do you like my dress?"
