The Secret Life Of Casualty.

Chapter 406.

After leaving Holby behind, following the death of her husband, Kirst Clemants had found herself working at another hospital, her daughter now in university.

"This is Jessica Harrison, 44-" Said a male paramedic.

Jessica Harrison. Kirsty was sure she had heard that name before, hadn't Adam mentioned it? Sneaking in to the staffroom, she pulled out her phone from her scrub pocket and dialled Adam's number.

"Hello?"

"Adam, it's Kirsty, " She told him, she hadn't heard his voice in so long.

"Kirsty, hey" Adam replied. "What?-"

"Adam, listen" Kirsty interrupted.

"What?" He asked.

"Do you know someone called Jessica?"

There had only been one Jessica in his life, mother to his beloved son.

"Yep, I do"

"She's here"

Adam didn't know what to say or do. How had she ended up in hospital? Where were Lucas and Amelia?

"Are you, there, Adam?" Kirsty asked.

"I'm on my way, " Adam said, desperate to see the woman he thought of as his wife, even though, they weren't legally married.

He hailed a cab

"Cheers mate" He said, throwing money at the driver, before rushing through the double doors.

"Kirsty where is she?" He said, spotting the nurse, who for him, held a resemblance to his ex.

"This way, " Said Kirsty, leading him down a corridor.

"What happened?" Adam asked.

"She fell down the stairs" Kirsty said, leading Adam to a side room.

"Jessica, I've got someone here to see you, " She said, in her professional voice.

"Hey, Jess" Adam said.

Jessica, at the sight, of Adam, burst in to tears.

"It's alright, Jess" Adam said, sitting on the edge of the bed and taking her hand. "It's ok, I've got you"

Kirsty left the two of them to it, as Jessica explained what had landed her in hospital.

"I blacked out, " She whispered. "Felt dizzy"

Adam took hold of her elbow, not missing the hiss of pain from her.

"Does that hurt?" He asked.

"Sure"

"It'll need relocating" He said, remembering the last time she lay on a resus bed.

"Kirsty, can you order an x- ray?"

"Adam, you don't work here" Kirsty reminded him.

"I don't care, I won't have a patient in pain"

"It's fine" Jess whispered, popping the oxygen mask back over her face. Adam quickly checked her for any other injuries, but apart from the dislocation, she didn't seem to have any.

Kirsty, although, unhappy, with being ordered by Adam, ordered the x- ray, which revealed Jess's elbow was dislocated.

While Kirsty kept hold of her shoulder, Adam pulled the elbow back in to place, not missing the scream which come from Jessica.

"Can we get a splint?" Adam requested

Adam put her arm in the splint and tied a sling around her neck and lay on the bed beside her.


Some AJ rubbish, with a bit of Kirsty in, kind of inspired by the episode where Jessica does fall down the stairs.
