Moments later -Chapter 7

"Ethan,Ethan wake up" Connie said shaking Ethan awake as he lay flat out on the staff room sofa

"Where am I?" Ethan asked groggily waking up looking around he saw worried glances from his boss.

"Your in the Ed Ethan, do you remember what happened." Connie asked him concerned

"C-al!" He said remembering what had happened, panic was now etched across his face.

"Ethan, he's ok, there was some movement so we have hope, he should get through this" Connie told the worried sibling

"You mean he's ok, he's alive?" Ethan asked Connie not wanting to hold on to hope

"Ethan do you know where you are or what's happened?" Connie asked now concerned as the young doctor collapsed in her arms.

Entering the familiar hospital room and staring at the empty chair next to the injured man, she vacated it placing her hand on top of his watching the rise and fall of his chest which was the only thing to show he was actually alive. Slowly she leaned forward with tears prickling her eyes as she went to speak fearing her voice would crack and her emotions would be shown "you need to wake up Caleb, your brother needs you, we all need you, I need you" she told him looking at his face, someone who was so manly and tall looked small and vulnerable with monitors and wires attached to him and it pained her to see her colleague like this. She gently spoke again to him to drown out the sound of beeping "the girls you saved, are leaving tomorrow they wanted to thank you for helping them, Robert wanted to thank you and hope you get better" she was interrupted by a coughing fit but carried on "I always believed you were some self centred, arrogant man who's reputation is spot on but deep down your some broken man who needs everyone around him to fix him, your kind and you save people and help them get better and I know you think in some twisted way this is what you deserve for what happened to Taylor but you couldn't do anything and I'm sorry I couldn't either" finally she finished, she needed to get that off her chest. Looking back at Cal she saw movement in his hand slightly and she edged closer to the bed "Cal its Connie squeeze my hand if you can here me" she told him softly and felt a small squeeze on the receiving end as his piercing blue eyes started to flicker open as he slowly adjusted to his surrounding. He saw her looking at him smiling sweetly at him still holding his hand, his voice was hoarse and groggy but he forced his lips to speak to her "wh-ere is s-he?" He asked tears in his eyes and Connie knew straight away who he was referring to

"I'm so sorry Cal, she's still gone!" Connie soothed him holding his hand for reassurance

"E-Ethan?" He also asked worrying about the safety of his baby brother and then Connie realised Cal was back at the crash

"He's just resting Cal, he's been warn out these few weeks!" Connie told him remembering how Ethan fainted in her arms earlier

"What happened?" Cal asked his next question which caused Connie concern he didn't know what had happened so what else did he not know.

"You were involved in an explosion at your flats, do you know who I am Cal?" She asked him but Cal hesitated for a while

"The one and only Connie Beauchamp!" He told her as a sigh of relief passed Connie

"We're you worried for a minute Mrs B" Cal said laughing at his attempt at humour when pain shot through his ribs and he collapsed back in agony.

"Dr knight, you are aware you have had an accident which you were thrown a few feet , I wouldn't recommend laughing even if it was at your clinical lead and its Mrs Beauchamp to you Dr knight " Connie said returning to her normal self now that she knew he was out of the woods.

"Co-n, ser-io-usly I can't breathe" Cal informed her as she gave him more pain relief noticing how much pain he was really in.

"Does anywhere else hurt Cal?" She asked him

"My, my leg hurts" he said to her

"can I take a look" Connie asked as she removed the blanket and rolled up to see the bright ,red wound on his leg which looked infected, silently she cursed and went to check up on Ethan.

She saw him lying on the bed burying his head in his hands not wanting to look up, she approached him and stroked his arm for reassurance, she knew how he was feeling unable to do anything to stop the pain a loved one was feeling. "Ethan, I've just checked up on Cal, he's awake and talking but in a bit of pain" Connie told him as Ethan lifted his head up looking into Connie's eyes with fear and he reminded her of a lost child "is he going to be okay, Mrs Beauchamp?" Ethan asked as Connie began to speak but realised Ethan wasn't on about Cal being physically ok.

"As you know his injuries were quite catastrophic and will take time to heal but we will not know how long it will take him to mentally recover. I am also worried his wound on his leg might be infected but I will try and sort that out now, I just wanted to update you on your brothers condition and the police will also need a word for the enquiry of what had happened" Connie explained to him

"Thank you Mrs Beauchamp, may I be able to see him soon" Ethan asked her

"Yes but don't be long he needs his rest, Dr Hardy, I expect your brother to be back in work annoying us all as soon as possible" Connie told the young doctor as she left him to be with his brother. When she was walking down the corridor a familiar face bumped into her with tears streaming down her face.

"Dr chao, what is the matter?" Connie asked confused to why the young doctor was so upset

"It was all my fault!" She sobbed
