Connor Rhodes helping her after she cuts herself by accident at home
(I changed the tone a little cause I hate the whole ‘damsel in distress’ trope. Hope that’s okay!) 
There were two things that made you laugh about your current situation. Firstly, the cut really wasn’t that bad. You dropped a knife and it ended up knicking your leg. Enough to need stitches but enough to cause any real concern. The second thing was, you were a freakin surgeon! You were a surgeon and on your one day off, you manage to end up in the ED.
You spent a good amount of time begging your April and Will to just patch you up without calling Connor. He would completely freak out despite this not even being that serious. He always got that way.
The only problem was, Will and April both knew that Connor would literally skin them alive once he finds out that you were hurt and they didn’t immediately call for him.
As chance would have it, he actaully ended up walking past your ED room while your curtain was open and saw you laying there.
Needless to say, multiple freak outs were had. At first he didn’t know what you were in for, which was ironic considering the fact that you had a giant bandage covering half your right leg but anyway. Then he seemed to be going through all the possible reasons for you to be there all of which seemed to somehow lead to certain death.
All of this was, of course, before you could even manage to get one word in. When he eventually allowed you to talk and you explained what happened, you recieved a lecture on safety. Which you would have taken seriously but in reality, Connor had never looked more like a dad in his life.
He refused to let Will stitch you up, claiming that his stitching was sloppy. You rolled your eyes at this but didn’t put up a fight.
He wanted to do it himself, the bloody perfectionist. But you wouldn’t let him. There was no way in hell he was stitching you up, he would undoubtedly end up with his hands shaking at some point.
So you settled for calling in a friend from plastics to do it instead. And Connor played the nice roll of the worried boyfriend, complete with the hand holding and the proclamations of undying love.
The undying love proclamations were very true. If you didn’t love him so much, you would have undoubtedly killed him by now.
