Will love save him?
Will love save John Carter? Can he be saved?
Abby had been taken aback by John's shocking news that morning so as she headed towards the ER she had a lot on her mind.
"Abby!" Susan called above the hustle and bustle of the tube station
Abby turned around quickly and caught sight of Susan running through the crowds to meet her
"Hey Susan" Abby said miserably as Susan caught up to her
"What's up Abby?" Susan inquired
Abby thought about telling Susan but she was reluctant, after all John was her ex.
"Oh nothing, I'm just tired and a little hung-over" Abby lied wearily
"Yeah me too" Susan said more cheerily than was to be expected by a hung- over physician at 7am
Abby and Susan made their way to County General, arm in arm, relaying the previous night's events, as they approached the ER they gasped in amazement at the sight which stood before them
20 or so fire engines were outside the ER, lights blazing and horns beeping, the ER was roaring in flames, news reporters helicopters were circulating the area and people were screaming. Abby's expression changed from one of slight happiness to one of utter amazement and shock, she stood there for a second awe-struck and then remembered.
"Oh shit, John!" She cried, bursting into floods of tears, she ran towards the ER doors but was held back by two fire fighters.
"I'm sorry Ma'am but you can't go in there" One of them said, he was an African American and he had a wonderful chocolate brown skin colour, Abby looked into his eyes and for a split second felt like everything would be okay, he made her feel at ease. She felt a tingle in her spine and she snapped back to reality
"But I have to" She said urgently "My.my.boyfriend is in there, I'm a nurse, I work here, I need to know that he is okay"
"I'm so sorry ma'am, we're doing everything we possibly can, we already have evacuated a lot of people, If he's been injured he might be In another hospital" The man replied. His voice flowed like velvet and his eyes were a walnut brown. Abby felt her knees tremble under her and she fell back into his arms, the second fire-fighter took her feet and they carried her to an empty gurney where she sat for a moment before leaping up and running over to Susan.
"What's going on Abby?" Susan said, tears welling in her eyes.
"I, I don't know" Abby said tearfully.
At that moment the chocolate skinned fire-fighter walked across to Abby and Susan and said kindly
"Excuse me ma'am but I have my car around the corner, if you want to take it to find your boyfriend, it's the blue Audi." he handed over the keys and walked away.
"Thankyou sir" Abby called after him, they ran around the corner, desperately seeking the car, when they found it Abby jumped into the driving seat and thought about which hospital to go to.
"St Helens, just at the other side of town" Susan said helpfully realising Abby might need a little help. Susan thought about asking who her 'boyfriend' was but realised it might not be such a good time.
The usual 15 minute journey across town, took a desperate Abby 7 and a half, her foot was close to the floor for the entire journey. As they pulled up outside the hospital Abby wiped away a stray tear and jumped out of the car. She ran inside the hospital and shouted at the receptionist
"John Carter, Do you have a John Carter?"
"That way" the receptionist said solemnly pointing towards a trauma room. "You'll have to wait in reception," He added quickly.
Abby ran towards the trauma room and peered through the glass window, 3 nurses and two doctors were working on him. Abby thought for a second about going in but she couldn't bring herself to move, She just stood peering through the glass. John looked so helpless, Abby wanted to go in there, and she desperately wanted to tell John that she loved him too, but she couldn't. Abby began to sob uncontrollably and as Susan walked over Abby ran to her and hugged her tight, she needed a shoulder to lean on.
Okay, If you do or don't like this chapter tell me, I might not go with it; it's just a tester! Sorry to leave it on such a.dramatic note, but I had to, Sorry SHOA*!
