"What in the hell is that supposed to mean?"

"I can see it in your eyes. You want to believe me, but you don't. I don't blame you. I wouldn't believe me either."

"Of course I believe you, Rick. Why in the hell do you think I've been killing myself these two months, and still now? Why..." She looked like she wanted to cry.

"I believe you. But, with the way you've been acting and not coming home, what am I supposed to think?"

"First of all, I haven't been coming home because the only thing I can do is try to find who hurt you. Who destroyed us. That's all I know how to do. All I'm good at. I don't remember how to have a mother. I don't know how to have a daughter. All I am without you is just a cop. And what the hell do you mean the way I've been acting?"

"It's like you're avoiding me. Ryan called, told me you didn't want to talk with me, that you wanted to stay at work. I have to find out how you are from Ryan, because you don't tell me, and Esposito isn't even talking to me."

"I'm not avoiding you. I'm working the case so our family can get back to normal, which is why I didn't want to call and tell you I got shot at. I'm fine. They missed. Is it really worth fighting about? Scaring Alexis and Martha even more? I want to get back to normal. I want this to be over but it just never is. And I haven't...I haven't felt this way since my mother." This time she was crying. "I don't want them to go through that. I don't want any of us to go through that."

"And we won't. But if you don't talk to me when something bothers you, I can't help." He wiped her tears away and hugged her as he spoke.

"I'm so tired, Rick. So scared. I think I'm scared to stay still and do nothing as much as I am scared to go forward from here." She thought this feeling was over when Bracken was arrested.

"What if you get hurt again? What if we lose you for good? If there's anything that this has told me, it's that none of us could handle that."

She felt like she was going to be sick again, the reaction that kept popping up when she was overly stressed.
"You okay Kate? Do you want me to get Alexis to get some water?"
"No. No, I'll get it." She stood to get it, knowing Alexis had waited hand and foot on her father since he'd returned. She reached out for the back of the chair to steady herself.
"Sit. Alexis!"
"Rick, leave her alone."
"Yeah dad?"
"Get some water for Kate please."
Kate wanted to argue again, but hurried to the nearest bathroom, getting sick. Alexis went into full parent mode and it was obvious she'd done this before.
"Kate? You need anything?" asked Alexis.
Martha came in from acting class to see Alexis put a washcloth to the back of Kate's neck, wiping off her face, encouraging her to drink. "Not again," she whispered where only her son could hear.
"What?"
