    Ten Degrees of Separation – (Chapter: Recasting the Primal Scene)

     

    "And she’s okay with that? That you treated her mother?"

     

    Kim shook her head irritably at the assumption. "She’s not a patient, Kerry. She’s a friend. We had dinner last night." Not sure why she added this last.

     

    Kerry ducked her head, seemingly lost in contemplation of the scuff marks on the tile floor. "Oh."

     

    "We didn’t talk about you," she added awkwardly, not wanting Kerry to think she had betrayed any of her ex-lover’s confidences.

     

    "You could have," Kerry said quietly. "If you had wanted to." A pause. "Or needed to."

     

    White noise roared in the back of Kim’s head. Confusion and doubt– along with the omnipresent urge to tilt the downcast head upwards and claim the tentative heart of the other woman as her own– warred with the molten awareness of how opening her body to Abby’s questing hands and mouth had chased away the shadows that coiled around her soul. If only for a night. Perhaps that was the pull, she realized, she hadn’t needed to say anything to Abby. Somehow… the other woman just knew, and that was enough. To be understood, to need; and to understand and to accept someone else’s need in return.  "Kerry… There’s something…"

     

    "Dr Weaver?"

     

    Both women jerked their heads towards the intruding sound of a man’s hesitant tenor. Kerry’s face immediately reassumed the professional mask that had dropped so briefly, and Kim shook her head, knowing the moment was lost. As she turned to greet the middle-aged couple emerging from Exam 1, she caught Abby looking at her with an inscrutable expression coloring her curved features. She managed a quick smile in the nurse’s direction before her full attention was claimed by the people in front of her. "Mr. and Mrs. Bollington… let me introduce Dr. Legaspi…"

     

    "You’re staring." Carter’s voice was unexpectedly close, and Abby couldn’t stop the start of surprise that skittered through her nerves.

     

    "What?"

     

    "Weaver and Legaspi. You’re staring at them."

     

    "No I wasn’t," she swatted his observation away with a wave of her hand.

     

    "Yes, you were."

     

    "Does this have a point?"

    1. I have to admit that I stopped watching ER several years ago, but after reading this, two things came to mind. 1. If I could have watched this story, with this dialogue on my TV screen I would still be watching faithfully each and every week. 2. This was a great reminder of why I shouldn’t ever work in a hospital…way too much gossip!!!! LOL Wonderful story…beautiful writing. Thank you for posting this here. And thank you for inspiring Jacky. The degrees of separation continue to prove true. While you were writing this, did you ever think that because of someone somewhere reading it, that a fan site would be established for a completely different show, that would in turn change thousands of lives all around the world? I know, amazing isn’t it…the power of a story. Thanks again.

    3. Gosh! This is fantastic. I love all the characters on ER and you’ve done a truly excellent job with all the conflicting emotions and the power of irresistible forces of attraction between Abby and Kim. I enjoyed every word.
