Becky was floating. The colors were so beautiful, so peaceful. Simon had gotten there and everything was fine now. Everything was always fine when Simon was there.

“Any idea what may have caused it?”

He sounded worried. She frowned. Simon shouldn’t worry. There was nothing to worry about. Couldn’t he feel it?

She heard some papers rustling around. “Yup. She’s hypoglycemic.”

“Hypoglycemia doesn’t cause hallucinations, does it? She was scared of an apple, for God’s sake!”

“If it’s severe enough, yes, it can. I gather she didn’t tell you about this?”

Funny, that sounds like my doctor. Wonder what he’s doing here?

“No, but you can bet I plan on bringing this up with her.”

Oh, now he’s getting growly. I wonder why he’s growly?

“Simon?” She opened her eyes to see his worried face hovering over her own. She smiled dreamily. Damn, she felt so good. “You have beautiful eyes.”

“Hey, baby. How are you feeling?”

She stretched. “Mmm, I feel wonderful. Don’t you?”

He looked off to his left with a frown. “Doc?”

“Could be a side effect of the glucose we’re pumping into her bloodstream.”

She lifted one heavy hand and stroked Simon’s cheek. “I’m okay.”

His frown was fierce. “You scared the hell out of me. Why didn’t you tell me you suffer from low blood sugar?”

“The tests hadn’t come back yet, so I didn’t know if it was hypoglycemia or my thyroid. I didn’t want to worry anyone until I knew for sure.” She shrugged. “Besides, I had the test on Friday and didn’t, um, hook up with you until Saturday night.”

“You could have told me any time this weekend.”

She stared up at his fierce frown and blushed. “We were busy. Remember?”

She heard a laughing cough behind Simon and turned to look. There was Doctor Harrison, hiding a grin behind his hand. “Actually, Simon, you have Max to thank for talking her into getting checked out. He knew the dizzy spells weren’t normal and asked her to come see me for blood work.”

“So it’s definitely hypoglycemia?”

Doc Harrison nodded. “Yup. This means we need to change a few things in your diet. Like making sure you eat regularly.”

She winced and refused to look at either of them.

“Also we need to find out what the underlying cause is, make sure there’s nothing more serious going on. The fact that you found her unconscious is cause for worry; however, her rapid response to the glucose is encouraging.”

She felt Simon breathe a sigh of relief. “So you don’t think it’s serious?”

“Not enough to warrant an extended hospital stay. We’ll monitor her for another hour or two, and then I suggest you take her home. Make sure she eats tonight, and under no circumstances is she to skip a meal. You’ll want to get plenty of good carbs into her, along with reducing her sugar intake. But if she seems to be having another episode, by all means hand the woman a regular Coke or glass of juice.”

Simon nodded and held out his hand. “Thanks, Doc.”

“You’re welcome.”

“Thanks, Doc Harrison.”

The doctor left, leaving them alone in the room.
