Who: Cleo and Cuddy and open
What: Meeting
Where: Apartment building
When: Backdated to their arrival

Evie had cried her heart out all the way up the beach, at a pitch that made Cleo afraid that their baby daughter was actually in pain. Her heart broke for them both. Quinn was the calming influence in both of their lives and he was gone. How Cleo had reacted to him being gone the last time was not an option, as she was, for now at least, the soul carer for their baby, and right now, there seemed only to be Cuddy here to help.

Cleo turned her head and caught sight of herself in a window as she neared the apartment building. A large chunk of hair brown wavy hair had changed to a stark, shining white. A nightmare come true. She shook her head to force back tears and walked through the doors of the modern building, looking for Dr Cuddy.

	"Yes, about something inside," Cleo replied. "And no I didn't dye it. I think it's a trauma injury that...might have happened in another reality." She knew it sounded insane. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"Some other reality that the island sent you to?" Cuddy asked. She had heard of it happening to others. "Might have happened? You're not sure? Did you lose consciousness?" (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"No, but I've dreamed it, and so far nothing I've dreamed hasn't happened. It's the curse," Cleo replied (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Dreams. House would love it; he'd want to try cognitive pattern recognition again. Cuddy would rather have simple cases that she could solve and keep Chloe, Evie, and her own daughters safe and well. "Did your dreams show you with any other symptoms?" She asked. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"Unconsciousness and a head injury, but there isn't anything that feels like I hit my head," Cleo replied (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"What did the injury feel like? Sharp, dull, throbbing?" Cuddy asked. "How long were you unconscious?" (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"I fell backwards, hard onto stone. The pain just sort of roared through then I wasn't awake any more," Cleo replied (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Cuddy gave a nod and glanced back to the apartment door. Her training told her to triage and set priorities, but with so many unknown factors that was difficult. "Okay. I'll check out the room, so if we can find some beds and then give you and the kids exams." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"I've got your back," Cleo promised and shifted her stance, putting herself between the empty space in the corridor and the four girls. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Cuddy pushed the door open slowly and stepped inside. She looked around cautiously. "Hello? Anyone here?" (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	The silence echoed back to them and Cleo shifted again to scan the empty corridor. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Cuddy searched each room and then returned to the hallway. "I think it's safe. Let's bring the kids inside." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Cleo started to gather up the children and brought them all through. "Thanks." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Cuddy gave a nod. "We're all in this together. Whatever this is." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"I'm sorry about Giles," Cleo said gently (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"We were reunited before." Cuddy said. "I have to hold onto hope that it will happen again." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"Us to. I just have to make sure I keep away from old habits, easier here," Cleo replied (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	proud_miserable 2017-01-18 07:32 pm UTC (link)
	"And you have my support. Hopefully, I can make it a little easier. I can at least give you and Evie that check up. Just let me get Rachel settled." Cuddy helped Rachel onto the couch, found a game for her on the phone, and then led the way into the bedroom. "This way." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	cleowhosees 2017-01-20 03:13 pm UTC (link)
	Cleo shifted Evie higher on her hip and followed. "Are you sure Rachel will be alright?" (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	proud_miserable 2017-01-20 04:39 pm UTC (link)
	"We'll leave the bedroom door open. If she needs anything, she'll call for me." Cuddy had done it before, usually when checking on House. She wasn't' sure if any of them would be alright when faced with the latest strange situation. Or if she'd find a serious, hidden injury on Cleo or one of the babies. She'd rather not have Rachel witness that, just in case. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"Are you sure your three are OK?" Cleo asked. She wasn't immensely concerned about herself, but she definitely wanted Cuddy to check Evie over. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"I think Rachel and I are fine. I'm going to check on the twins again too." Cuddy felt as if she was lacking again, in the instinct to simply know her children's state. It was easier to have patients who could talk. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"You don't need to worry about me, honestly. No Fiesta, so I'm safe," Cleo tried to joke (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	proud_miserable 2017-01-20 04:59 pm UTC (link)
	"Fiesta?" Cuddy asked. Ever since her college days as 'party pants', she associated the word with celebrations and mojitos. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"I die getting hit by a car, it's fine," Cleo replied. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)
