What if Matilda was Cal's Chapter 1

I do not own any characters of the BBC's Casualty nor any of the content from the show that may appear but my story lines involving Matilda from episode 13 are mine. This story will start from when he opens the paternity test letter.

Please be kind with reviews as I am in bottom set for English and I am not that good and one of the reasons for me doing this is to hopefully improve my English and writing skills ready for my GCSE exam in a year as I don't do coursework.

Cal's POV.

Ethan was opening his birthday letters when I saw one from the paternity test clinic. I grabbed the letter quickly and ripped it open hoping to see the results I wanted. I looked at the results and started crying I couldn't control myself because I was so happy!

"what's wrong?" Ethan asked with panic in his voice.

I couldn't find the right words to say so I just gave Ethan the letter for him to read it himself.

"Your Matilda's biological dad" Ethan asked with excitement in his voice

"yes YES ETHAN YES I AM" I started shouting with excitement

Ethan jumped up and hugged me in a manly way even though he was also starting to cry

Rita was walking by the room to ask how Matilda was and saw us both crying she started to panic and rushed over to us

"What's wrong is Matilda okay has something happened" she asked as she rushed to the side of Matilda's bed

"no Rita you know that paternity test Ethan made me take to see if I was Matilda's dad or not?" I asked her

"oh my god Cal don't tell me you're not really Matilda's father" she asked tears starting to escape her eye you could tell she was fearing the worst yet hoping for the best

"no Rita I am her dad I am her actual dad she never has to be alone because she will always have me. Her dad no matter how old or how far away she will always have me and I will always have her." I said tears still escaping my eyes

"oh Cal that's amazing news I've never been so happy for you. I never thought all it would take for you to change was a little pink bundle of joy but she has she has made you a better man already and you haven't had her that long. Oh Cal in so happy for you do you want to tell the others or do you want me to do it for you we've all be worried about the result but now we can all know." She said almost jumping with excitement

""would you mind telling them Rita I don't think I could get through it without crying. I just love her so much that the fact that it is black and white I am her father. and as soon as she is able to leave the hospital I'm going to get her a GP and make sure she has had all the vaccinations she need to make sure she doesn't get this Illness again" I told her

" wow Cal I never thought you could care about someone more than yourself. You have really grown up these past couple of weeks I so so proud of you and I know mum would be too" Ethan told me

"I'm going to leave you three to it I have some news to tell the rest of ED." said Rita as she left the room leaving us to it


Rita's POV.

"listen up everyone I have an announcement to make about baby Matilda" I almost shouted to get everyone's attention

everyone was around me faster than you could shake a stick

"Cal has just got the results from the paternity test and he is indeed 100% Matilda's biological father" I excitedly told everyone in the ED

Everyone started to cheer at the news we were all so happy we all wanted Matilda's to be Cal's as he loved that little girl so much and we all knew even though he was a bit of a pain he was going to be the best dad to that little girl and no one could be more lucky than Matilda.

Once everyone had gone back to work I walked up to Zoe to tell her what Cal said and hoe he had really changed since becoming a dad

"Zoe after Cal found out he was Matilda's dad he was so happy he started talking about doctor's appointments to make sure she was up to date with all her vacations how great is that he is really taking to fatherhood and I think he is really going to make an amazing dad don't you"

"yes I actually do he had changes so much since he got Matilda and I actually prefer the new Cal he is so much more mature and he really loves her you can see it in his eyes when he looks at her. And I think your right he will make an amazing dad and the fact that she's already looking for a GP is absolutely amazing. "

suddenly Cal approached us on his phone

"hey Zoe I don't suppose you know of any GP that would be good for Matilda do you. Just because I want to make sure she gets the best one she can. She is just so perfect I don't want her to have anything less than the best" Cal asked

"you know what Cal I actually have some really good ones that owe me a favor come see me later and we can look though them and you can decide which top three you like and we can go from their yeah" I told him

"yeah that sounds amazing thank you" he said Turing around to go back to Matilda's room

" oh and Cal" Zoe called after him

"yea"

"you're going to make an amazing dad"

"thanks Zoe that really means a lot coming from you"
