'Why what's happened' Phil said sitting bolt upright
'Just come down and you'll find out'
Phil grabbed his coat and keys and ran down to the car. The five-minute journey seemed to take forever and he finally parked in St Hughes car park.
He raced upstairs to Sam's ward. Jack and Gina were standing outside it. Jack smiled and Phil walked in. Sam's eyes were open. He felt like his legs were giving way he was so relieved that she was awake.
'Hey Sam'
'Hey' came a croaky reply
'Oh Sam I thought I'd lost you, I⦠I'
Phil broke down, his emotions getting the better of him. Sam could see he really loved her and felt her heart give a little leap. She rested her hand on his. Her stomach ached and she felt awful but seeing Phil was worth the pain.
'Phil what happened to Craig'
'I dunno, I'll go and ask Jack' he kissed her gently on the forehead and left the room.
'I bet your glad she's awake' said Jack kindly
'Yeah you have no idea, what happened to Craig'
'Well he's in another ward, there's an officer with him ā he's bruised and has a broken arm, nothing that won't mend'
'Will he go down for it'
'Without a doubt Phil you don't need to worry'
Phil turned and headed back into Sam. Her eyes were closed again. He sat holding her hand when one of the machines hooked up to her suddenly went crazy. Nurses and doctors flew from no-where and Phil was pushed outside.
'Jack I was just talking to her, I shouldn't have left her ā what's happening' Phil was panicking.
Jack rested a hand on his shoulder while Phil broke down. He needed Sam she couldn't leave him now.
