When you have things you want to do, but it all involves getting dressed and getting out of bed.

Get a nosebleed in the middle of the night, wake up with your face stuck to the pillow looking like you were massacred. Yay.

Who: Lorenzo Chevalier and Richie Jameson
What: Brotherly reassurances
Where: Childrens' Unit, Mount Sinai
When: Sunday evening

Lewis had a one-off job that night that he wouldn't be finished with until about 10pm. He would come to the hospital straight after he was done. This particular job had been booked for months on end, and it was a massively paying one so he couldn't just pull out at the last minute. Lorenzo had just arrived to the Children's Ward at the hospital so Holly could be admitted for her tests the following day. They liked the admit babies the night before so they could get them on fluids for fasting and they still settled for a good night's sleep rather than trying to get them up going at the crack of dawn the day of.

It was all supposed to help ease the parents' stress, but even just having Holly here again was setting Lorenzo off in a fit of anxiety. Holly had been a patient here before, months earlier not long after she was born with the infantile seizures. Even if this was planned, it was still necessary because Holly was vomiting a lot after her meals and her growth weight was slowing right down. She wasn't thriving. They needed to find the problem so they knew how to fix it.

Lorenzo had been shown to the private room he would have with the cot for Holly and a bed for him. There was another recliner in there too because Lorenzo advised them both Holly's parents would be staying with her throughout. Holly was on his hip as he rocked her gently because he had to wake her from a nap to get her ready to come here. She was a little grisly and clingy, her head resting on his shoulder while tears dried on her cheeks after a crying session on the way to the hospital.

He was kissing her head when Richie came into the room. Lorenzo was freaking relieved to see him. Nate was the doctor Holly would be admitted under, but Richie worked with him. Lorenzo just hadn't been sure if his brother would be on shift that night. "Shit, dude, you don't know how glad I am to see you. I'm fucking shitting myself," he admitted.
