â€œThis is ridiculous,â€ were the first words to come out of Katâ€™s mouth once Murdock had taken his leave and it was needless to say that she was definitely not happy with the captainâ€™s decision. She groaned in frustration and ran her fingers through her hair, standing slowly from her seat to walk around the room for a bit. Hopefully walking around would ease her mood and even more so when she got the hell out of this room. It might have been true that she needed rest but she really would rather get back to work as soon as possible. She truly felt that getting back to work would help take her mind off yesterdayâ€™s events as mentioned before. To hell with having fun. If she wanted to have fun she would she would do it when there wasnâ€™t a serious matter to attend to. And why was Ryan involved all of a sudden? That was what had Kat puzzled the most.<br/><br/>She continued to walk around the room for a bit. At first she was still rather tense but she found focusing on the various pieces of equipment and medical supplies was something that helped her calm down after a minute or so. Helped work the drugs out of her system, too, which still made her feel out of it and she was not looking forward to coming back and having to take them again.<br/><br/>However, her little bit of walking was doing nothing to ease her concerns about what was going on and the fact that she and Eric were given time off was even more concerning. Something felt wrong but she really couldnâ€™t place her finger on it. She knew something was wrong the moment shit seemed to hit the fan with this whole Thomas situation the other day. That man was damn important and wanted by a lot of different people; what would become of him? Would the other fleets want him as well? And how the hell did she know him? There was so much she wanted to know, but no, here she was forced to take time off because of a few cuts and bruises! Sure the wounds had been bad there was no denying that since she could give a fairly accurate guess as to how severe they had been but she still didnâ€™t want to sit around and do nothing.<br/><br/>God she was so worked up right now. It took a faint bit of dizziness to remind her that she wasnâ€™t fully healed just yet and needed to take it easy still she was that worked up. Shaking the dizziness off, she sat next to Eric again and sighed. In all honesty she wasnâ€™t really use to having too much time off. She was usually stuck working her ass off because of an incompetent partner who didnâ€™t get their job done among other things that would keep her working. After awhile she was fine with it, it became a habit, though it wasnâ€™t always good when her partners fell victim to it. On that thought, maybe that was why Eric was given off as well. He wouldnâ€™t be stuck doing all her work or vice versa. The captain did say he needed the both of them. Maybe he wanted them both to be well rested?<br/><br/>â€œBut it just really doesnâ€™t feel right,â€ she mused, mostly to herself, running a hand over her face and taking a few more deep breaths. Finally looking to Eric, she said, â€œWhat do you think? We have some time off so I guess we go find something to do so we donâ€™t die of boredom?â€ Kat shrugged, seemingly nonchalant despite her near explosion moments ago, figuring he would have his own plans. It was kept subtle as she could that she still wanted some company. Silently, needless to say, she hoped he would want to find something to do.
