Thanks for the reviews guys. I will probably update just about everyday from now on because I've finished writing it.

Chapter 10

The nurse came in and out during the days that Kate stayed in hospital. Sometimes she would stay and chat and other times she would just pop in just to see how she was going. Kate's health improved although there was still pain but not as bad.

The whole crew visited to see how she was going at some point during her stay there. Nikki always came with something for Kate to read as well as some sort of gossip. The only person that Kate didn't see was Mike.

Kate was finally released three days after being admitted. She still had to take it easy as well as take antibiotics for the pain but other than that things were back to normal.

As soon as Kate had got home she headed straight for the shower. Her hair was dirty and it needed a wash. As well as she needed to freshen up and get rid of that hospital smell.

She had just gotten dressed when she heard a knock on her front door. She walked down the hallway to go and answer it. The knocking persisted.

"I'm coming! Geez couldn't they have little bit of patience." grumbled Kate.

She opened the door and there stood the crew of Hammersley.

"Hey Ma'am, we thought that seeing as though you just got out of hospital we thought we might celebrate it." Shouted Josh over the noise.

"Actually they just wanted an excuse to be able to throw a party." Was the reply of the girl that had her arm around ET.

"I thought it might be something like that Nikki."

"Lets Paaarrrtttaaayyy!!!"

Kate just stepped aside and let the crew walk in.

"Which way to the back yard?"

"Down the hall and it's the door on your right at the very end."

"Let's go boys!! We have a party to set up."

All the boys shuffled down the hallway and headed out to the backyard. Kate turned to Nikki with her eyebrows raised with a smile on her face.

"So?"

"So what Kate?"

"ET…"

"No. We are just going to be mates and se how we go. Besides we still have a few months to go til Hammersley gets decommissioned. So we will see how we go til then. Anyway, which way to the loos?" (Toilets)

"Down the hall. First on your left."

Kate had just shut the door when a knock came. Kate opened the door and there stood Mike with his arm wrapped around Ursula.

Sorry it's short but I hope it's ok. Anyway I hope you enjoyed. Thankyou for your loverly reviews. It's great to hear what you think. Thanks Hammer for the constructive criticism. I'll read the rest before I submit. Hopefully it'll be ok.
