The blonde looked down at her mug for a few moments , Donna watched her.
"You've got nothing to worry about , you are going to be fine i promise"
'I hope so" the blonde replied with a little smile again before she took the last few sips of her tea and put the cup into the sink before leaving the room to go and find her partner.
As the blonde looked around the hospital Serena was in the on call room with Leah, They were both in bed cuddling. Serena had no idea that Bernie was back in the Uk as the blonde would never tell her when she would be back. The blonde had now stepped on to the AAU, she looked around with a smile seeing how busy it was before heading into the direction of the office.
When Bernie reached the office she went in and put her coat over her chair moments before she sat down at her computer, she didn't log on to it as she wasn't sure if she was staying so she just leant back in her chair trying to think of Serena's whereabouts
An hour later, there was still no sign of Serena and now Bernie was out on the ward checking Serena's patients orbs and covering her theater slots, she didn't mind but it wasn't what she had planned to do as she just wanted to spend time with Serena. The blonde had gotten fed up with waiting for her partner to return so she went to take a break, the blonde not knowing that Serena was on the AAU but was in fact in one of the on call rooms with Leah.
As she walked pass the row of on call rooms she heard a familiar voice coming from one of them, the blonde pulled her confused face before she followed the voice. When she got to the middle on call room Serena's voice had grew louder. The blonde had her hand on the handle where she slowly opened the door.
Bernie soon opened the door fully seeing Serena making out with an F1 the older blondes heart broke into pieces, serena didn't notice at first but when she did she looked over "shit"
Bern just closed the door and went back to the shared office gathering her things before writing out her resignation that she was going to hand to Helen or Hassan.
Serena soon got cleaned up and came after Bernie, she walked into the office and closed the door. the blonde just blanked her. The brunette sighed "when did you get back?"
The blonde was resting against the filing cabinet who had her arms folded while she looked at her partner "oh only a few hours ago…"
"Why didn't you come and find me?"
"I did" the blonde replied bluntly.
"It wasn't what it looked liked"
"Wasnt what it looked liked? You was practically shagging her Serena!"
The brunette looked down at the floor "im sorry"
"How long has it been going on for?" The blonde asked while she tried to her cool
The brunette refused to answer which was making it hard for bernie to keep calm
"Ill ask again… how long has it been going on for?" The blonde asked again raising her voice
Serena jumped a little hearing her partner raise her voice, she kept her head down "a few weeks after you left" she mumbled quietly
"Pardon?"
"A few weeks after you left...im sorry"
Bernie shook her head as she couldn't believe what she was saying "you know i stayed loyal for you out there…"
"Im sorry" the brunette repeated
"What does she have that i dont'?"
"Nothing…"
"Then why did you do it?"
"I don't know..i missed you"
"Missing someone doesn't mean you cheat on them!" The blond raised her voice again and gave a pause
"Do you remember when i stuck by you when everyone else didn't? And when you went on your sabbatical i stayed here?"
Serena nodded "yes…"
"I never cheated when you went on your sabbatical"
"I said i was sorry"
"Sometimes sorry doesn't cut it"
"Bernie..please...i love you"
the blonde shook her head "i don't think you do anymore…"
"I do.. i do love you so much"
"No not anymore… im sorry but i need to do whats right"
"Bernie please don't do this to us"
"Us? Im not the one who destroyed that when you first started to sleep with her.. shes old enough to be your daughter!"
"You don't have to do this… let me fix it"
"There is nothing to fix...we're over… i hope your happy now" the blonde stated before picking up the envelope and her jacket then her suitcase where she walked out the office seeing almost everyone who was working on the ward now staring at her
"I don't know what your all staring at get back to work!" The blonde raised her voice not meaning to.
The blonde soon disappeared off the AAU and marched up to her sisters office, she saw it was empty so she dumped her suitcase down by the sofa so that she could open it, once she opened the suitcase she pulled out Serena's present which was a bottle of shiraz that she got in Nairobi.
The blonde just stared at it Debating on opening it in her sisters office. She rezipped up the suitcase and got up from the sofa looking for two wine glasses.
When she finally found them she poured her sister a glass before she guzzle down half the bottle. Helen was returning from her break but was needed by a junior f1 , she also didn't know that Bernie had came home.
Helen was taking a little while so the blonde took out her phone going on to pictures where she started delete every photo of her and Serena.
After about 20 mins helen walked into her office seeing Bernieand raised an eye brow "what are doing here? She asked unaware that her older sister was slightly drunk
"Came home….but now its a waste of time"
Helen looked at her again before looking over at the desk seeing the wine glass then looked back at bernie now seeing her holding the wine bottle
"Wanna talk about what happened?"
The blonde shook her head "i just came to give you something and to ask you something" the blonde replied a little drunkenly
"Right okay…"
The blonde didnt say anything and handed her her resignation letter
"But you just got back"
"Things change… i need your car keys" the blonde replied a little drunkenly again
