hemhem. hi there. i'm sorry for being gone for so long, but circumstances are circumstances. i'm trying to ease back into updating with little, random oneshots (see baby, it's cold outside) but don't expect an update every two weeks. maybe once a month.
for those of you who really want to know what's going on, here is a preview of the next chapter for you, because I don't have the energy -or brain power- to do a full chapter.
this is going out to all of the fst fans that patiently (and unpatiently) waited for my return. and baileybear. just because you all are so amazing, darlings.
Listening to: My brother and his eleven year old friends
"Paging Dr. Hotz, paging Dr. Hotz. You are needed in room 223." A clear voice rang through the hospital halls as Derrick sat outside the operating room with his head in his hands.
"Derrick, is that you?" A fimilar voice asked from above the bereaved boy.
"Dr. Hotz?" Derrick's voice, caked with sadness questioned as he attempted to wipe his eyes surreptitously.
"What's wrong Derrick? What's going on?" Josh's father sat down next to Derrick with a soft expression on his face.
"Claire- Claire's been shot. They have her in surgery right now, but-"
"Do you know who the surgeon is?" He asked gently, pushing up his silver rimmed glasses.
"Dr. Randallas."
"He's a great surgeon Derrick, don't worry. Everything will be fine," Dr. Hotz said, standing up with a slight groan from his knees.
"But Dr. Hotz, it's my fault. What if something goes wrong?"
"Would it make you feel better if I put in a request to be her doctor?"
"Slightly, yes."
Dr. Hotz chuckled. "Then that's what I'll do. She shouldn't be too long. She just had a gunshot wound to her arm, right?"
"And she was knocked unconcious. The paramedic said that you'll probably want to keep her overnight for observation."
"The medic was right. It's what we do for most head injuries."
Derrick nodded and Josh's father patted his back. "I'll see you soon, Derrick."
"Thanks, Dr. Hotz."
so, how was that for a little peek into the lives of my voodoo dolls? review, even if it's just a preview. thanks.
