Chapter 5

"Faith?"

I turned my head so I could look at the person in the doorway. Tyrone Davis was standing there in his uniform looking as if he was in the wrong place.

"Are you going to come in the room or stand there all day blocking the doorway?" I asked him with a small smile.

"Sorry. We were called here to take a report. Sully went to ask where they need us." Ty replied as he stepped two steps into the room. He seems a little shy he never used to be that I could ever remember. Sully walked in and stopped just in front of Ty and looked at me then back at Ty.

"Hey Faith, I was told at the desk that the person in this room needed to file a report. Do you need to make out a report?" Sully asked.

I was really hoping that there wouldn't be anyone here that knew me. My first reaction was to tell them no, but I knew better they would know I was lying and then get even more upset than they are right now. Ty was standing there looking at the floor shifting his feet slightly. Sully had a look that was hopeful that they had the wrong room. Taking a deep breath I answered Sully.

"Yes I do." That was all that would come out at the time but it was enough to let them know something happened.

"Faith do you want me to see if Sasha can come in and take the report instead of us?" Sully asked.

"No Sully its ok you guys can stay." I answered. I really didn't want anyone else to know that I'm in here and the reason why I'm here and I especially didn't want Bosco to know what happened. I think Sully understood that because he just shook his head yes and then told Davis to go get some coffee for all of us. Davis left the room and Sully stood closer to the table I was sitting on.

"Ok Faith tell me what happened."

"Sorry to interrupt but I really do need to tend to my patient." The doctor said as he walked into the room and sat the chart down on the counter.

"That's ok doctor. I will be outside in the hall just let me know when I can question her." Sully said to the doctor and then left the room.

"Mrs. Yokas, my name is Doctor Woods, will you please lie down on the table and just relax. I just want to take a quick look and then the nurse will come in with the rape kit ok." Dr. Woods said in a soothing voice.

I lay back on the table and did everything he wanted me too. The minute his hand touched my leg I jumped and tensed up. I started to have a hard time getting my breath it felt like there was something sitting on it not letting me breath. The Doctor yelled for one of the nurses to get in here and then everything went fuzzy and I lost consciousness.

"Hey Sully what's going on?" Davis asked handing Sully a cup of coffee.

"I don't know. I heard one nurse say that she was having problems breathing other than that I'm not sure."

"Damn." Was the only reply Davis could muster as he looked inside the room as the doctor and nurses where working on Faith.

"I'm going to try and call her husband he should be here." Sully walked over to the phone booth and dialed a number that even though he doesn't use much still knew by heart. Nobody answered the phone so he left a message for Fred to come to Mercy as soon as he could.

"He didn't answer the phone I left a message." Sully said as he walked up to Davis.

"There is still no word on Faith. I think am going to call Sasha and have her come down here too. Faith would probably like a woman's presence here."

"If I hear anything I will let you know." Sully said as Davis walked out the doors and into the parking area to use his cell phone.

Sasha walked into the ER doors and spotted Ty and Sully sitting in the waiting area and headed over to where they were. Ty had called her and said that Faith was here and they needed her to come to Mercy to give her support to Faith. It didn't take her too long to get dressed and head out the door of her apartment. A thousand thought as to what was going on still plagued her as she sat down next to Ty. No one said a word they just sat there waiting for the doctor to come out of the room Faith was in.

"Officer Sullivan can I have a word with you and everyone else that is here for Faith Yokas in the nurse's lounge please." Doctor Woods said motioning for them to follow him into the lounge. They followed the doctor into the lounge and waited for him to tell them something. The Doctor took a deep breath and began to tell them what had happened and give them a vague idea of what his patient has been through.

"Let me start from the beginning. Faith had a panic attack while I was doing an exam on her that is the reason she was having problems breathing and passed out. As to her injuries they are minor a slight concussion and multiple contusions. I'm not allowed to tell you anything more without her consent." Doctor Woods said.

"Thank you Doctor. When we will be able to question her about filing a report?" Sully said after he found his voice.

"She is still unconscious right now but should wake up within a few hours. We finished our exams while she was out to avoid having any more panic attacks. I will say this to you since you are the Officer here for the report. We did do a rape kit and it came back positive. This is the room she will be transferring to I want to keep her here for observation for the rest of the night." Doctor Woods said as he handed a piece of paper to Sully and walked out of the room leaving them to mull over their thoughts.

"Did you get a hold of Faith's husband?" Sasha asked to no one specific.

"No. I called their apartment and no one answered the phone." Sully replied. He walked over to the window and stared out at the lights sighing heavily.

"What time do you guys get off work?" Sasha asked.

"In about three hours." Ty answered looking at his watch. He walked over to the coffee pot on the counter and refilled his cup and then got one for Sasha too.

"Here you look like you could use some of this too." Ty said as he handed the cup to Sasha.

"Thanks. Why don't you and Sully go on back to the house and see if you can get off early then come back here."

"What do you think Sully want to try and get the rest of the day off?" Ty asked walking up to where Sully was still standing.

"That does sound like a good idea. I don't think I could work to well right now anyway. I'll meet you outside Davis." Sully said and then walked out of the room and down the hall pausing a minute to look in the room Faith was in she was still asleep. Shaking his head Sully continued to walk out of the ER and up to their RMP parked near the doors.

"Ty, Faith will be alright. It will take a little while but she is a strong person and I know everything will be ok. I'll stay here with her until you guys get back over here ok." Sasha said trying to help the feelings she was having about what happened and knowing that Ty and Sully were feeling the same exact stuff.

"Yea she will. I just wasn't expecting what happened to her. It took my mind time to comprehend everything it wanted what happened to just be a simple mugging but it wasn't was it?"

"We all felt that way Ty don't let this get to you too bad we have to be strong and helpful for Faith." Sasha said as she placed a hand on Ty's shoulder.

"Thank you Sasha for everything. Sully and I will be back as soon as we can. If Faith wakes up before then tell her we are thinking about her ok."

"Yea, no problem. See you guys in a few." Sasha said. She watched as Ty walked out of the doors and then walked over and stood outside of Faith's room keeping a silent vigil over her until Ty and Sully comes back.
