Hi everyone. Only a short chapter….sorry! I don't know if this medical terminology is correct or if this is what would happen as I'm not a real doctor so sorry if it's not. Thanks for all the reviews, I love reading them. Let me know what you think and what should happen next! Thanks in advance!
Chapter 11:
A few hours had passed since Cal had been brought into the ED. He'd been sent up for the relevant scans and Connie was on her way back to RESUS with the results. As she approached the set of double doors she could see a figure slumped against the railings on the bed. Ethan. She quietly opened the door and walked over to sleeping figure and gently placed her hand on his shoulder giving it a little shake.
"Ethan, wake up" she said softly and waited patiently as the blonde haired doctor slowly woke, stretching his arms out and yawning.
"Sorry Mrs Beauchamp, I must have nodded off." Ethan explained wearily as all the events of that day came flooding back to him. He looked at his brother asleep on the bed then his eyes found the set of notes in Connie's hand and the look of fear spread across his face.
"He's going to be fine." Connie said and Ethan sat for a moment until a sigh of relief passed over as his mind finally processed the words Connie had just said. "He's got a mild concussion and cuts and bruises but nothing serious."
Those words were like music to Ethan's ears. After everything that had happened he was convinced he was going to lose him and that their last words to each other were going to be from the argument the previous day.
"We're going to move him to cubicles whilst we wait for a bed on the ward. He will need to stay in overnight for observations as a precaution." Connie explained as Ethan nodded his head to show his understanding of what was being said to him.
"And I suggest you go and get some sleep. You're back at work tomorrow." She said before leaving Ethan alone with his brother. He let a huge grin spread across his face. He was going to be ok.
