Last chapter people! Well I think so anyway! And again, casualty isn't mine!
Dylan Keogh
She lies there on the bed so still. If it wasn't for the beeping of the monitor I would think she was dead. She has been in the coma for 2 days now. I didn't think it was possible but I actually miss her. That's a lie; I missed when she was out East in Afghanistan. Her bright smile and sarcastic banter definitely made the ED a more interesting place.
Her eyelids flutter but I know she has no idea of the hope that the small movement brings. There she lies away in her own world, somewhere far far away. Probably a lot nicer than here in Holby. I have sat here for about 40 hours holding her hand, hoping that she will squeeze it or make a movement.
Sam Nicholls
Over the rainbow. That's where I am right now. It could be Oz but I hope it's a little closer to home. Dylan will kill me for sleeping so late but I don't care. I think I deserve a long lie; I was the one who got hit by a car. Granted it was partially my own fault for not looking what the car was doing.
I feel funny now. Like I have been lying in the same position for too long. I can feel a hand in mine, it's nice that Dylan is having a lie in too. I should probably get up now, even if I do like this.
The lights are too bright. Almost like the ED lights, very clinical.
"Urgh. What time is it?" I ask, sort of expecting a sarcastic comment.
"Oh thank god!" That sounds like Dylan.
"What does God have to do with it?" I reply. "I'm in hospital? I could swear I was at home."
"Yeah, coma for 2 days. I, well, was slightly worried. I didn't want you to wake up here on your own."
"Dylan, I could probably cope with waking up alone. It was good of you to stay though. Thanks." I meant it. I really did. Even if he doesn't care. I sit up, just to try and make it seem slightly more sincere.
"Come here." Enveloped in an unsuspected hug from my... husband I sigh.
"This technicality could be worked out." I whisper hoping not to be shot down.
He lightly kisses my forehead, "I'm sure it can."

Am I the only person who loves the Dylan/Sam pairing? (I know it's not a pairing anymore as they have actually got a relationship now)
Bye Bye!
