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

     

    "If you weren’t in the picture," Kim blurted, unwilling to pretend for a single moment longer that she had been any better able to move on than Kerry.

     

    Kerry’s face registered incredulity as she shook her head, pain visibly twisting turning into something else. Something far more fierce and on the edge. "You’re telling me that you hopping into bed with Abby Lockhart is my fault?"

     

    "What’s happened isn’t a car wreck," she replied dryly. "There’s no fault involved. Or blame to be assigned." Kim folded her arms and took a deep breath, fighting the anger she felt rising in her chest, seeing its reflection in the tightening of her ex-lover’s features. "And I didn’t do it because of you." Her voice softened as she continued, "I tried that with Lori."

     

    "What’s that?"

     

    "Getting your taste out of my mouth, your touch off my skin," she answered thickly. "I knew after one night that you’d always be with me. So why bother fighting it? So, no, Kerry– Abby and me aren’t about you."

     

    A long silence fell between the women; and in those moments, Kim realized that there was no going back from here. The conversation they had been assiduously avoiding since Kim’s suspension was about to happen. But Kerry was shaking her head rapidly and stepping around her. "It isn’t any of my business, Kim."

     

    "Yes, it is," Kim contradicted her as Kerry flipped the lock to the door open. "Because I love you," she said, expecting Kerry to walk out the door, to refuse to hear her once more. To refuse to see the truth between them. "Because the part of me that belongs to us has never ended. But it can end. Right here and right now, if you want it to. Or it can go forward."

     

    Soft in tone, gentle in its wrappings though her words were, it was still the most dangerous thing she had ever said to Kerry Weaver.

     

    Kerry’s body stilled, fingers wrapping around the door handle, knuckles whitening. "I cannot believe you just said that." The smaller woman turned on her, eyes going thundercloud green. "Six months of sentiment and moving on and I know this must be hard for you– and now you decide to tell me you love me? After I catch you making out with a nurse in my own ER?"

    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.
