What next…? The email Serena should have sent in the Episode Black Dog

Disclaimer: These characters belong to the BBC and the wonderful actresses who play them. I promise to put them back in a better condition than that in which I found them. I am not writing for profit or gain, I make no money from this. No infringement is intentional.

A/N: I cannot believe that the writers did that to these 2! I get they need drama but couldn't Serena at least have said 'I need you' or one of them contacted the other before Hansen had to say that Bernie had decided to stay in the Ukraine. That moment when Serena caressed Bernie's name on the piece of paper Hansen had handed her and then screwed it up almost broke my heart.

This is the email she should have sent if it got to the point where she actually needed to.

What next…?

(The email Serena should have sent)

By Morgana-Alex

Mailto: Bernie . Wolfe . Ukraine

Subject: What Next…?

I lie awake and I see your face. I dream of your kiss. I cannot escape my thoughts of you.

You left me alone, in pain, to face the gossip of the entire hospital. I told you I was falling in love with you and you ran.

I don't know if I can forgive you, my heart is screaming 'love is defending the indefensible', that anything can be forgiven. My head is screaming 'once bitten twice shy', that I should guard my heart before you hurt it further.

But you guarding your heart, being a coward is what got us in to this mess in the first place, and my stubbornness is what kept us there.

Bernie I need you, I'm tired of being angry at the way you left and that you left me no way of contacting you. Though I know I could have found a way if I'd tried hard enough.

You said I needed time and space to figure out what I want and I have. I want you, it scares the life out of me how much I want you, how much I need you. It's not just emotionally, I crave you physically; my heart, body and soul are yours for the taking.

Can we move past all that, can we be brave, can you love me and let me love you?

Come back to me please.

The End…?

A/N 2: I've been away from writing for some time I abandoned my muse and suffered the consequences. I'm beginning to move on and this is part of the result. I am late to the #Berena /#Campwolfe scene, having only seen the article with Jemma Redgrave in DIVA's latest edition 2 weeks ago. I'm now obsessed. These 2 need to get together and at least have something of a relationship before the writers of Holby City tear them apart for good. Like any writer reviews are and constructive criticism is welcome. MA
