Matthew smiles at his beautiful girlfriend as she checks over a patient. "So we could go out to eat or… whatever you want to do."

April nods and smiles at her patient's little girl, "Wait a minute Matthew, You're going to have to get stitches so we can fix up your leg. I'm just going to get your previous medical records."

April grabs the charts and walks back to Matthew but she doesn't see her patient. "Where did she go?"

"Huh?" Matthew looks up from his phone.

"My patient, I d-d-didn't check her throat. Matthew did you see where she went?"

Matthew puts a hand on her shoulder, "April calm down."

"No!" She shrieks making some of the nurses look at her.

Across the room Jackson watches the scene play out. April runs her hands through her hair. "Hey, Steph just wait a minute I think something is going on with Dr. Kepner."

They walk across the room and April snaps on Stephanie, "Did you or any of the stupid interns take Mrs. Stevenson to surgery?"

"No Dr. Kepner."

April shouts to the nearest nurse to find her patient. Jackson puts a hand on her arm to calm her down, "What is it? You've never been this worried, what's wrong?"

"Jackson I didn't check her throat." Jackson thinks back to when she was first fired. Of course she was freaking out.

"Ok, I'll go with you and find her." Tears go down her face and she nods. The walk past Matthew and Stephanie and begin to look in different rooms. "Are you ok?"

April nods and wipes her eyes, "I've always check their throats, ever since what happened. I check their throats." April sinks to the ground and cries in her hands.

Jackson kneels down beside her. "She'll be ok."

"What if she isn't? What if she has dysphonia, laryngitis, Reinke's edema, spasmodic dysphonia, or tracheostomy!"

"Why did she come to the hospital?"

April looks at him, "She hit her leg off a coffee table, why are you-"

Jackson cuts her off, "Nothing could happen then. Her throat wasn't touched, she didn't breathe in smoke or swallow anything."

Jackson goes to hold her hand but is interrupted by Mrs. Stevenson walking out of the bathroom with her daughter. "Dr. Kepner, the little one had to go. Sorry, I told a nurse."

April takes a deep breath and they walk back to the bed. "Nope its fine, I just need to check your throat."

Jackson watches April stitch up the patient and smiles when Mrs. Stevenson leaves. "You ok?" April nods and hugs him, because it feels natural.

"Thank you, for calming me down and helping." Jackson nods and lets the hug go on for a little too long.

Staring at them is Stephanie and Matthew, "It's weird."

"What is?" Matthew questions Stephanie.

"Being the second choice." Steph leaves and Matthew stares at the two before getting in the ambulance.
