The Wedding

Chapter 6: finding out how Robyn is doing

Everyone quickly headed for the sickbay, while John and Scott went on the look for Gordon. TinTin is in the sickbay with Robyn when Jo, Virgil, Penny and Jeff all arrive.

"Is Robyn ok TinTin?" Jo asked as she walked over to her daughter and took Robyn's hand in her own while Virgil stood behind Jo and put his hands on her shoulders in an attempt to help calm her down at bit.

"Robyn is fine Jo, we started giving her something to warm her back up again and that seems to be working now. Gordon got her in here as soon as he got her out of the pool." replied TinTin.

"Did Robyn hit her head at all when she fell into the pool?" asked Virgil as he looked down at Robyn, who seem to be a sleep but he still felt really worried for his daughter.

"I don't know Virgil, Gordon didn't say anything to me about Robyn hitting her head but I'm sure he would have told me or Brains about it. But from what I see I don't think she did."

"Was Robyn asleep when Gordon brought her in?" asked Jeff.

"She wasn't Mr Tracy but she was scared that we had to give her something to calm her down and Gordon did stay until we got her sorted." TinTin told everyone there whilst checking Robyn's temperature again.

Meanwhile whilst everyone else is in the sickbay with Robyn, John, and Scott both went down to the beach to go after Gordon, who was by now feeling bad about what, had just happen with Robyn. They see Gordon setting on the sand not too far from them. Scott and John approached their brother slowly.

"Hey can we join you Gordy?" asked John.

"Depends if you're going to chew me over what happen with Robyn." said Gordon as he threw a stone into the water.

"We just came to see if you're ok Gords, are you up to telling us what happen? Asked Scott with a worried look.

"I don't know...I was going for my midday swim like I always do and Robyn must have come down without anyone knowing ...the next thing I see is Robyn falling into the pool and then I'm jumping in after her. Guys I honestly didn't know that Robyn was there. If I had of known then I would have been watching her. Are Virgil and Jo mad at me?"

"No they seem to be more worried about Robyn right now, I don't really think they are mad but they're so glad that you pulled her out when you did." replied Scott, he really didn't think they could be mad at Gordon, from the sounds of it he did everything he could.

"I still feel really awful about it guys anything could have happened to Robyn, I guess i was just there at the right time." Gordon still looked awful but he didn't have that haunted look in his eyes anymore.

"And I know once Robyn finds out who pulled her out of the pool she will make you the best Uncle." John said to Gordon with a smile, trying to cheer him up a bit.

"Look Gordon, why don't we all head up to the sickbay and she how Robyn is doing, I'm sure that TinTin has given Robyn something now, I reckon she is going to be just fine." Scott urged.

"Do I really have to face Virgil and Jo what if they are mad at me guys, what if they can't trust me with Robyn again?" said Gordon as he walked back up to the house with John and Scott.

Back at the sickbay Jo and Virgil were worried about their daughter as they set down beside her holding her hand.

"Did Gordon not know that Robyn was down there with him?" asked Jo, her eyes never leaving Robyn.

"I don't know Jo but whatever happened I'm going one hell of a talk to Gordon about this, he should have checked before he came to the pool...he is going to have to be more careful before he goes down there." Virgil said with anger evident in his voice.

"Are you saying that you're mad at Gordon for what happened?" Asked Jo as she stood up and put her hands on hips, looking directly at Virgil.

"Its not that I'm mad Jo it's just..."

"It's just what Virg?" asked Jo, hands still firmly on her hips.

"Look whatever happened I'm sure Gordon did everything he could, so why don't we wait and hear what Gordon has to say about it." Jeff cut in giving his son a stern glare.

"I just don't like the idea of Robyn being down there on her own or even with Gordon being down there." Replied Virgil with a slight bitterness in his voice.

Just as Virgil finished talking Gordon walked into the sickbay with John and Scott.

"How is Robyn doing?" asked Gordon with a shaky voice.

"Wouldn't you like to know, could you not have checked round the pool before you went for your swim? YOU KNOW FULL WELL THAT THERE IS A 5 YEAR OLD ABOUT!"

"Virg I didn't even know that Robyn was down there and if I had of known then I would have kept a good eye on her I swear."

"HAVE YOU EVER STOPPED TO THINK THAT SHE COULD HAVE BEEN KILLED!" shouted Virgil at Gordon.

"Virg that's enough Gordon already feels really bad about this whole thing," Scott cut in as he put his arms around Virgil's shoulders to hold him back.

"No Scott I won't calm down, my little girl was nearly killed because HE didn't check the pool." It was obvious that Virgil was beyond reason right now.

"I think I will go and give Alan an update, I am sure he is worried like the rest of us are." said John as he walked out of the sickbay to call his younger brother.

"I keep saying if I had of known that Robyn was there...but I didn't!" protested Gordon desperately.

"SAVE IT!" said Virgil.

"Fine just call me when you want to talk Virgil but I am really sorry." said Gordon as he ran out of the sickbay upset again.

"Well done Virg, you upset Gordon again." said Scott who looked cross but wanted to go back out after Gordon. As he made to leave Jeff grabbed Scott's arm.

"Just leave Gordon be Scott."

"Virg I really think you were a bit hard on Gordon there." said Jo, whatever she had planned on saying was cut off as she saw Robyn had come round. From the look on her face it was clear that she had heard all the yelling.

"Mummy, daddy."
