A/N- This is my first ever fanfic.. feel free to review and share ideas :)
Standing at her patients bed, Jac Naylor could hear the whole conversation coming from the nurses station. Bonnie Wallis gloating about her impending nuptials to Jonny. Her Jonny. How could she have been so stupid? Pushing him away. But.. hadn't he accepted her offer to move in together? Hadn't he smiled and taken her keys? Had her instant dislike to over-happy nurse really been their downfall? Now he's with little miss sunshine and planning their wedding. Now there's no going back…
"… And, because of Emma still being so fragile after her op and she's still recovering you know, we've decided to have the wedding here at Holby. I know Jonny would have loved to have the wedding in Scotland but we think it would be better for Emma if we had it here. Jonny's going to still wear a kilt of course, just because we're not having the wedding in Scotland doesn't mean we're not following tradition. We even have caterers coming dow-"
She couldn't stand this. How dare she talk about her daughter. Talking about her condition to anyone and everyone. That's her daughter. Hers and Jonnys daughter. Jonny. The very thought of his names still causes the rare warmth in her chest. Finishing with her patient, she marches to the nurses station, stopping just behind the gossiping nurses.
".. My dress is just beautiful, stunning even. I've begged Jonny to convince the Ice Queen to let Emma be a bridesmaid. I have a gorgeous little dress for her. But I doubt that bitch will allow –"
"When you've quite finished," Jac allowed herself a moment a savour the pure looks of terror coming from the nurses in front of her before continuing. "I would like to remind you that, whilst it must be fun listening to Nurse Wallis blabbering on about a day that, may I add, most of you haven't been invited to, you all have jobs to do. If you would like me to go to Mr Hanssen and inform him that most of his Darwin staff would rather sit around doing nothing, I'm sure he would be more than happy to replace you." The combination of tone and one of the Ice Queens famous stares was enough to send all nurses, except for Bonnie, running. She, however, remained where she was. Glaring at Jac, she slowly stood and moved towards the fiery consultant. Neither of them noticing Professor Hope approaching.
"Can't help yourself can you Jac? Have to state your authority don't you? Got all the staff running for the hills and breaking the heart of your baby's father by not letting her come to his wedding. Can't stand it when someone's happy. Or is it jealousy? Are you jealous because he chose me and not you?" Now angry, Bonnie toed her way further towards Jac, being sure to keep her voice low as to avoid attracting attention. "You're a horrible woman Jac Naylor, and I'll be glad when I finally have Jonny away from you. We're leaving Holby after the wedding. Not straight after, but not long. He'll see Emma on weekends and she'll stay over but the more I can keep him away from you, the better."
Elliot, having heard Bonnies words, turned to find his consultant friend standing stock still with anger. Not recalling ever seeing Jac this angry he decided the best thing to do was to try and defuse the situation. "Jac, there you are, I've been looking for you. I wanted your opinion with a patient of mine. I'm seeing something on her scans and I'm almost certain I've got it right but a second opinion can't hurt can it? … Jac?" Stepping in front of her now their eyes come in contact. She nods stiffly and walks towards their office, head down as tears threaten to fall. Bonnie, who has plastered a look of smugness on her face tries to slip away, however, if she thinks she's getting away easily, she is very much mistaken.
"Nurse Wallis, if I ever find or hear of you speaking to a senior member of staff, whether it be Miss Naylor or another, like that ever again, I will not only ensure your transfer to a different ward, I will make sure that ward be in a different hospital. Do I make myself clear?" Leaving her standing there mouth gaping, he follows Jac into their office.
