Guest: Thank you for the review, you'll see if Iain wakes up.
Jenny: Thank you for the review, I liked your idea.
The Secret Life Of Casualty.
Chapter 503.
Ruby remained by Iain's bedside, just as he had done with her when she was battling sepsis, she linked her hand through his, being care of the IV as she stroked his hair. "I'm here, Iain, you'll be alright, "
Iain remained unconcious; with a bandage around his head from surgery.
Ruby looked up as Zoe walked in. "Go home, Ruby"
Ruby shook her head. "I'm fine"
Zoe put a friendly hand on her shoulder. "I'll call you"
Ruby noddded. "Thanks Zoe" She kissed Iain's forehead and then left the room, heading to the lifts. She had a score to settle.
"Ruby" Adam stared at her. "What are you doing here?"
"I'm here to talk to you. " She said, pushing her way in to his house.
Adam showed her in to the living room; two couches, an armchair, a coffee table and framed pictures of a little boy stared back at her, she guessed it was their son.
"Take a seat. " Adam offered.
Ruby sat on the armchair.
"What's this about?" Adam asked.
Ruby stared at Adam. "You punched Iain"
Adam nodded. "Yep, "
"You don't know what it's it like to be in pain" Ruby continued. "My kids could lose their dad"
Adam knew pain; he'd lost his parents, his brother, his baby boy and his wife was facing a stint inside. Even though, they weren't legally married, he knew he'd do anything to protect her and the kids and he'd failed that.
"Iain might not wake up. "
"He will" Adam replied.
"You don't know that. "
"I do" Adam nodded. "Jess was in a coma"
Ruby looked at him, remembering what Iain had told her about their wedding day, but not knowing that Jessica had spent time in a coma.
"I sat by her bedside, waiting for her to wake up, she had surgery on her heart as well as her brain" Adam had never told anyone that, but he figured as Iain was currently fighting for his, there was no harm.
"Adam"
A tired voice caused both Adam and Ruby to look up, there was a small girl standing in the door. Ruby had never seen her.
"This is Jessica's daughter, Amelia" Adam said, Ruby nodded.
"What is it?" He asked the 12 year old.
"I miss my mum" Amelia whispered.
Adam nodded. "I know Amelia"
Ruby got up, feeling awarkward. Adam seeing this, looked at her. "Thank you, " He mouthed at her, Ruby simply gave a nod and left the house, she was still mad at Adam, she knew not to let the anger show in front of Amelia. She returned home to her house, paid the babysitter and checked on her own children; Iain was asleep, but Sophia was awake. She picked her up out the cot and walked down the stairs.
"Daddy will be home, soon." She said, but she didn't sound sure, but she knew she needed to be strong.
