[Follows THIS]There had been no question as to whether Chris would accompany Dave to to the ER. In fact, not even Proctor argued with that when he stated it. Dave was in a bad way, but at least when he passed out, he stopped throwing up. When the gurney arrived, Chris could only stand back and watch as Dave was transferred onto it, on his side in ( Read more... )

When Chris woke up this time, he was extremely disoriented. Spending so much time in a hospital, to wake up now on a sofa with his face squished into a pillow and a blanket over him was weird. In fact, initially, he thought he was dreaming until he realised his torso was aching and he had pins and needles in his foot. He was still half asleep when ( Read more... )

[Follows THIS]Chris was in Sulk 101 mode, and had been most of the morning. Though it wasn't technically a sulk, it was just more a slightly freaked out bewilderment with an aggravation at the whole being a patient thing. He really had fallen asleep in the ICU after a nurse took yet more blood from him for monitoring, and when he woke up, he was in ( Read more... )

Chris only realised he must have passed out again when he was once again waking up disoriented. It wasn't as bad this time, though. The pain was still there, but it had eased, and things weren't quite as hazy as they had been. In fact, despite having a recollection of waking before and knowing Serena had been there along with Rick and his Mom, it ( Read more... )

[Follows THIS]Dave had made the tough decision the evening prior to have the Propofol dosage stopped to give Chris a chance to wake up naturally. It hadn't been an easy one. Carla knew this. She had been there, not too far away, when she had seen Dave in serious talks with his boss and also with Rick's doctor. They then all seemed to take a united ( Read more... )

[[Follows THIS, THIS and THIS]Chris found himself getting drawn awake yet again after a long night of restless dozing and trying to watch DVDs on the small portable screen that only made him go cross-eyed when his brain wanted to keep wondering ( Read more... )

Chris was yet again a screwed up mess as he stormed out of Bella's office, and to the fuck with any of her staff who wanted to eyeball him and start rumours. His brother was goddamn dying from cancer and if he wanted to cry and and yell and make a scene, he was going to do it. Or had already done it, rather. When he left the beach, he had told ( Read more... )

Overall, Chris' trip to Lake Wimico was an abysmal failure. An eighteen hour round trip, and he had been in his home town, stood on the edge of that lake all of twenty minutes before he got back into Rick's car and drove home. He still couldn't really explain why he did it, and it was hurting his head to even try now. He had probably cried more in ( Read more... )

Chris kept true to his word and changed the station in Rick's car to something more conducive to his ears. In fact, for a good portion of the drive, he had been singing along to all his favourite classics after ending up plugging his iPod in when the radio just turned out to be crap on any station. He needed to get a few things out of his system, ( Read more... )

Trying to find a time for Chris to meet Serena's brother had proved to be almost impossible. When Serena wasn't on shift, and Chris didn't have his hands full with something for Rick, Drew seemed to have a client meeting. When Drew didn't have a client meeting, and Serena didn't have a shift, Chris needed to be with Rick during a rough patch. And ( Read more... )
