Cameron had been expecting Pat or his Mum or even one of the Princeton bunch alerting to their arrival in Kilt Land. Pat went back to the apartment for a shower, so maybe he left something at the hospital. Cameron hadn't exactly been thinking rationally. Only hours early, he had been delivered the blow that he was out for the rest of the season and facing a lot of intense physio on his knee to even hope to get his strength back by the start of the next one.

He had been staring blankly and numbly at the hospital roof when the phone rang. He blinked, it taking a couple of moments to place the voice. His head was still hurting dully from the concussion, but overall, he was starting to feel better. "Izzy?" he said, awkwardly trying to catch sight of the clock. "I was sure I'd here from you."

"You have other kismet lays?" she asked, slightly amused. "Yeah, it's Izzy. I know I only promised to say goodbye and not run, but I kind of figured that since I missed you that maybe you wouldn't mind if I called. And I wanted to know how you were. How you're going..."

Cameron faltered a little, even had her slight joke. He shifted against he pillows, careful not to try and move any of his injuries bit. His knee was now in a large and uncomfortable brace and his arm in a sling so he didn't disrupt the strained shoulder. "Sorry... my head is a train wreck. Why would I mind? Yeah, I'm... maybe we should just talk about the weather or Brangelina?"

"Understandable. I'm sorry, I really did just miss you. I wasn't sure if maybe you weren't feeling up to it. Or if you just didn't want to talk to me. Still having moments of self-doubt, but I'm getting better." She looked out over the City from her window, trying to imagine it being London so that she felt closer to him. "That good, huh? So do you think her kids are band-aid babies?"
