A/n: Sorry I haven't updated in a long time, but I have been busy getting all my coursework done last minute, I guess this is the troubles of doing your GCSE's. Anyway I just wanted to give my readers I head start that updating will be quite slow since my exams start in a few weeks. I would like someone to help me out in writing this just in case I can't because of revision or exams
Chapter 6
The day before the wedding.
Cater POV.
What a day, the ER is busy as hell and I still have a speech to prepare. I walked pasted Admin and as usually Frank and Jerry were arguing. Gosh when will those two men ever grow up? I walked into the lounge; I have to get this speech ready before tomorrow. I can't believe that Luka is getting married. I wish I were in his position. Chen was sitting down at the table talking on the phone to somebody. I made my way to the coffee machine, I need it right now if I am going to write this speech and continue the rest of my shift.
'No I said a size 8 and I wanted it in pink by today' Chen said angrily
'You know what fine I will take the purple and I will get it today OK!' with that Chen hanged up the phone and put her head on the table.
I stood there tasting the warm coffee circulating in my mouth watching Chen. I never understood why women get so stress out finding something to wear. They always get stressed out for no reason. If they can't find the perfect earring they have to change the whole outfit again. Also if the clothes do not match the hairstyle they have to redo their hair all over again. For us men is much easier we just find the suit the tie and the shoes, nothing else to worry about
"John... John" I jerked out of my thoughts and saw Chen staring at me.
"Um.. Sorry what did you say" I asked still dazed. I moved and sat next to Chen on the table.
"I said that shops are so annoying when you asked them for something simple they also have to make it so difficult" Chen said while scribbling down on a piece of paper.
"Ya, I have been meaning to ask you, well not you in particular but any woman why do you women get worked on clothes why can't you just put on something nice add a pair of shoes and you are there." I said sipping on my coffee.
Chen just stared at me as if I just asked a stupid question. She slowly got and took her paper; she turned around when she reached the door.
"You know what Carter I will just save you an explanation, cause you are part of the male species and frankly your species will never understand some things" after saying that she just left. I just sat there shocked, what did I exactly say that made her say that. You know what there is no point of me stressing myself out. It is bad enough that my back is killing like hell. I picked up a piece of paper from the side and took a pen out of my pocket. I might as well start writing this speech.
Susan POV.
It's official I am getting old. My legs are hurting and I feel like my eyelids going to drop on the floor. I made my way towards the kitchen and there was Abby sitting there with her hands on her belly. She looks so sweet I think she is going to make a great mother. Her belly does look a little to big for someone who is 7 months pregnant, might just be my imagination.
"Good morning, today is just a fantastic day isn't it" Abby said while I made my way to the fridge. Half way through my journey to food land, I stopped did Abby just say what I think she did.
"What did you just say Abby"
" I said Good morning and isn't it a beautiful day today" Abby said with a smile plastered on her face.
This is getting too weird this pregnancy is really affecting her hormones, I mean Abby is one person I know who is not a morning person, whether it is a beautiful day or not.
" I guess so," I said and sitting next to her.
"So what are you wearing to the wedding" Abby asked me while biting into her toast.
" Um it's in my room you could check it out if you want" I picked up a slice of toast of Abby's plate, as I was about to taste the bread I felt eyes glaring at me, I turned my head to face Abby.
"Drop it" Abby said still looking at me, by the look of it, she was going to bite my hand off, if I didn't what she said. I slowly lowered her food back to the plate. I really learnt something new today, never touch a pregnant woman's food unless you what your fingers missing.
"You know what you can have the food" Abby said while getting up. I cannot believe this just a second a go she was ready to punch on me and eat me alive just for touching her food.
"Where is your dress?"
"It's in the closet, second to last on the right," I said before putting the toast in my mouth before she comes back ripping me in half for eating her food. I got up and put the dishes in the sing, after five minutes of clearing up, I did not hear anything in my apartment apart from little sobs coming from my bedroom.
"Abby" I said dropping the towel on the table.
"Abby, Abby are you okay?" I asked making my way to my bedroom. Abby was sitting at the end of my bed holding my dress crying.
"Abby, sweetie what is wrong?" I asked sitting next to her, wrapping my arm around her shoulder.
" It's not fair I do not have anything to wear to Luka's wedding?" Abby said through her tears
" Yes, you do I saw your dress, remember you showed it to be a couple of days back" I said trying to reassure her.
" I know but I can't fit in it anymore Susan", " you know that my belly has grown since I have been here"
" Aww, Abby come on you can still fit in it"
" No I can't, I am a big, fat and round. I'm also ugly" Abby said before bursting into more tears.
" Don't worry Abs we can find you something to wear, we can make you a new dress, I've got some material in my closet" I said remembering the remaining cloth I had from making a Halloween custom for my niece when she came last year.
" Really, are you sure" Abby said wiping her tears away. She looked liked a little child who have just found her teddy bear she lost for days.
"Yeah we will, come lets get started, I have to be in work in a couple of hours" I got up and dragged Abby to the bottom of my closet.
Abby's POV
I turned the sink tap off. This is the sixth time I've been in this toilet I think I made a best friend in the process. I stood there for a while looking at myself in the mirror. My blondes streaks are coming out I think I should dye it again. I stood there for couple more minutes till I heard Susan voice.
"Abby, come in here and try it one, I think this one will fit" Susan screamed.
You think I have tried the bloody dress 12 times and each time I did not fit, I am really getting tired of this. I hate being pregnant I hate my belly and most of all I the person who did this to m, I hate you –
"Abby hurry up I need to be in work soon" Susan screamed interrupting my thoughts.
"Coming" I screamed back. I walked out the bathroom and went straight to the living room where Susan was working.
"The princess is he-"before finishing my last sentence Susan interrupted me
"Try this on now I have made a few changes I think it would fit now," she said shoving the dress on me.
"Ok" I said taking my robe off revealing my round belly. I slowly put on my dress hoping and praying it would fit. I zipped up the dress at my right hand side. Susan and I figured it would be easier having a side zip instead of a back since I was pregnant and everything.
"Yes it fits and you look gorgeous, aren't I brilliant" Susan screamed running up and down here living room. I guess she happy and that she can make her way to work without Weaver biting her head off. I stood there laughing she was right she was brilliant I didn't want to mention it to her before she gets a massive ego boost.
"I love it Susan this is wonderful" I said making way to hug her.
"You welcome, now I have to go to work before I loose my job and I don't think Ca-, Weaver will be to happy about that" Susan said. I knew the name she was going to mention before she changed it to Weaver. I am kind of glad she didn't mention it because that would have just brought a strange atmosphere for both of us.
Susan ran up and down looking some stuff, I sat down on the couch watching her; she was really funny when she is in a hurry.
"Ok got to, love there some food in the fridge, and please and I am stressing the word please do not eat too much food until the wedding is over. I don't want to make late night changes," Susan said with a smile before walking out of the front door.
Carter POV
I took of the bloody glove and threw it into the bin. Our patient was finally stable and Corday could now take her to the OR. My back is killing me it feels like something is dragging me to the floor. The ER was getting busy right now and we are down with an attendant since Luka, is not on today.
"Carter two MVA coming in soon" Chuny shouted across at admin
"ETA?" I asked hoping to god she would give a reasonable time so that I can call someone in to help out. "30 minutes" Thank you
"Ok" I said making my way to a phone so I could call Susan to get her ass here; she is already ten minutes late. I dial the memorable number; it rings a couple of times before I hear a female voice pick up.
"Hello" I hear from the other line.
I know that voice.
