Chapter one

scared

Ethan awoke in the morning 7 am on the dot. He and Cal started work at half 8. As always Ethan would wake up get his and Cal's breakfast sorted and wake cal.

"Good morning nibbles"- Cal said walking to the dining table

Ethan smiled back not making much effort to reply

"Hey what's up" Cal asked concerned

"I'm just tired"- Ethan said yawning

"Well I would be if I was up all night researching Huntington's "– Cal said

Ethan didn't reply

"Ethan we need to move forward from this you're making yourself worry too much researching it every night"- Cal said

"I know, I'm just" – Ethan stopped

"You're just?" Cal finished

"Nothing"- Ethan said walking out

Cal knew something was up but he didn't t want to upset his little brother more. Cal and Ethan arrived at the ED 15 minutes early which meant Cal could talk to Ethan more.

"So Ethan I'm thinking. Me and you tonight strip club. Have vodka shots off semi naked women and then come home drunk" – Cal said smiling imagining it already

"Yes because that's exactly what I love doing" – Ethan said

"Ok so be ready by 8 tonight"- Cal said and walked off to get to work

"Not happening, Cal, Caleb!"- Ethan shouted but Cal had gone.

Ethan walked out of the staff room and started treating patients.

Ethan had a rubbish morning. A child screaming because he didn't want to be sent home, an old woman with a broken ankle who would refuse to be treated. A boy saying he was ill but it was because his mam wouldn't buy him some sweets.

As Ethan was in reception just taking a breather, a woman standing the line to be seen to suddenly collapsed. Ethan ran over straight away this was probably the highlight of his day. Ethan, Charlie and Robyn assisted the women onto trolley as she was taken to resus.

"Her heart rate is very low" - Robyn said to Ethan

"Okay Charlie can we get some oxygen on her and Robyn let's get some fluids into her." Ethan said

That's weird – Ethan said

"Look this rash on her arms and neck its kinds purple a bit" Ethan said concerned

Ethan placed his hand on it feeling it

"Ethan" - Charlie said

"If you're going to investigate the rash please put some gloves on you don't know what it is and may be infected" – Charlie said

"Oh gosh sorry I didn't think I'm just tired sorry" Ethan said

So that's the end of that chapter I have a big idea in my head but it was just a little tricky to get the start right. please review if you have a spare moment every comment helps. Xx
