He hadn't planned on kissing Naomi in the elevator, he hadn't even really intended on seeing her today. She had become such a shadow of what she used to mean. Running away from her practice, her child, and then her grandchild all in the name of work. And there's been this anger building, bubbling in the pit of his stomach.
He didn't give a damn that she was upset about Addison, he was following his heart, doing for himself as she was for herself. He was dating, and operating, and leading his own life- one he picked.
But she was always there, under the surface.
He could hear her voice in the back of head telling him to be afraid, be weary, be diligent.
She was in the middle of some tirade about Dink, her newest victim, one he already deemed unfit twice, when he pushed her against the metal railing and made her shut up. And he knows, the baby talks with Addison, the guilt over being tied up in the OR while Olivia is growing strong and loud, and the backfiring of Naomi's grand merger are all wearing on him. It's compiling and grating on his nerves.
All he wants is silence.
Instead fireworks erupt when they finish, Amelia an unreliable witness to his last ditch effort at sanity.
