Chapter 2 of 12 (next one in an hour)
-HLN-
The warm water beats down on him as he leans his hands against the tile wall, and the last of the nightmare swirls its way down the drain. Before he knows it, his mind is taken over by a more pleasant thought-her.
He never could say thank you enough to whomever deemed him worthy enough to have her. Not only is she the most beautiful woman he's ever met in his 40 years on this earth, but her spirit and heart make her even more gorgeous. Her smile has the ability to brighten a bad day or mood, and her eyes have that way of seeing every inch of his soul.
And while he sometimes wishes she had a different profession or that she would take that promotion that would, for the most part, get her off the streets, he knows that her passion for what she does is one of the reasons he loves her so much. Plus, it is what brought her into his life and that...he wouldn't change for anything.
She is his life and the reason he breathes. And without her, now that he's had the pleasure of knowing and loving her, he would be nothing.
His eyes open as the sound of a ringing phone meets his ears and instantly the nightmare returns. He quickly moves out of the shower and into the bedroom, not caring that he's dripping water everywhere.
His hand is once again shaking as he reaches for his cell phone and even the familiar number of his work does nothing to wane his fear.
Hitting answer he puts the phone to his ear and with dread says, "Hello."
"Dr. Cullen, it's Katie. I'm so sorry to have to bother you."
"It's okay," He says, feeling the tightening in his chest lessen somewhat. "What's going on?"
"We need you to come in if you can. There was a bus accident on the highway. It flipped over onto it's side and there are multiply injuries coming in. Dr. Gerandy is in an emergency surgery and we don't have an attending on the floor."
"I'm on my way."
"Thank you." she says before she's gone.
Carlisle takes a moment after hanging up to compose himself and take a few relieved breaths.
She's okay.
