part 3
Twenty minutes later, Jack lay in a hospital bed, with a searing pain in his left hip. He kept telling himself that he was in way less pain then Gabe, but still it hurt like hell! Jack realized that he was Gabe's only hope. Molly had just called to tell them that Fi's plane would be delayed for another hour because of the weather. Jack shifted his gaze over his shoulder to the "call the nurse" button by his bed. He pressed it and in a few minutes a young blond nurse came in.
Jack gasped in surprise as he saw who it was.
"Annie? What are you doing?" He asked harshly.
"Shhhh. This is fun. I always wanted to be a doctor." She giggled.
"You don't seem to get that Gabe's life is on the line do you?" Jack said, his voice icy cold.
"No! I came in to tell you that you are a match! Congrats!"
Jack sighed and shook his head. How blond could Annie get.
"Duh, Annie! Why do you think they stuck that big needle in my hip? They tested me first."
Annie's smile fell.
"Oh. Well I've got to go help the little boy down the hall. See ya!" Annie raced out of his room.
Jack pressed the nurse button again, and this time his real nurse came.
"Yes? Are you okay Jack?" She asked.
"Yeah, just can I see Gabe?"
"I'm afraid not. She's in sugery right now. If everything goes well there, then she'll probably be alright."
"And if not?" Jack asked.
When the nurse lowered her head and didn't answer, Jack got the picture.
Sorry so short – I'm making this up as i go along. Don't want to make it rushed or bad!
