locked to nurse_cchapel -- Green on White

[thevulcanfirst]

The small quite flat that belongs to Christine Chapel and Spock was normally perfectly clean as it belongs to a Nurse and a Vulcan. So by default it was clean all the time. Today among the clean there is, on the counter in the kitchen, a green liquid spilt over the countertop and the floor below it. At the moment only one of the owners of the flat

She'd only gone to the supermarket. They were out of apples. Really, that shouldn't have been long enouh for anything to happen. So Christine wasn't expecting anything when she came home and into the kitchen with a bag of apples and a few other things she thought they might "need." Except, there's something on the counter. Blood. His.

Immediately panicking, the bag gets tossed on the counter as Christine grabs a rolling pin. If he's hurt, someone's hurt him. There's no real logic applying itself to the situation for her: the building is well-secured, he is remarkably strong, she would have felt his duress through their bond. No, she just knows that's his blood and that's not good.

And then she checks the front rooms and can't find him and that's really not good, which is when tears start welling in her eyes. And then, she thinks to try calling out for him. "Spock, are you home?"

He comes out of the back a few seconds after hearing his name. His face is calm and controlled when he comes to see Christine...with a rolling pin? Shaking his head he answers her. "I am here," he said softly...and is that really his voice? It was weak and almost pained. "Why do you have a rolling pin?" he raised an eyebrow at her.

"You're alive!" Which means the rolling pin is unneeded so it drops to the rug on the living room floor with a thud. Seconds later, she's got her arms wrapped around him, holding him tight.

In a moment, she'll be able to register more and properly take care of him, but for right now her mind is focused. "Oh, thank goodness," she breathes, face in the crook of his neck. "I was so worried."

Stunned by the reaction he got (and by what had happened) he just stood there and allowed her to hug him. "I was in our back bathroom." he said as he held onto him. "Why were you worried?" He was so confused.
