"You might as well go home guys." Greg said at 3 in the morning. "They're not gonna let us see her tonight, so just go home and get some rest. We'll stop by and see her before work in the morning if she's awake."
"How can we go home boss?" Spike asked. "We have no idea what's wrong with her! She could be dying for all we know!"
"Spike! Please! Can we not talk about her dying?" Sam shouted.
"Sam! Keep your voice down, we're in a hospital." Ed said.
"Yeah, I'm aware of where we are Ed."
"Alright, calm down. Everyone is tired and needs sleep, now let's go home and I'll see you all bright and early tomorrow." Greg said before everyone slowly got up from their waiting room chairs. The men were just about to leave the waiting room when a series of beeping and shouting caught their attention. They saw nurses McNally and Murphy fly out of the staff lounge, shouting a whole bunch of numbers that made no sense to them.
"Room #233! VP's dropping, she's coating!"
"I wonder what that was about." Wordy said as the two nurses and a doctor flew past them.
"I'm too tired to care." Spike said.
"Wait! #233! The nurse told me that that's Jules' room!" Greg said, suddenly wide awake.
No more needed to be said, the men spun on their heels and sprinted towards Jules' hospital room. After a few wrong turns, they were there and saw a terrifying sight.
Jules' eyes were closed, but her body was shaking uncontrollably. Her blood was on the bed and floor. Doctors and nurses were working hastily over her, hooking her up to even more tubes and machines. Steve was sitting at her side, her small hand wrapped in his. He was terrified.
"I don't get it!" Nurse Murphy shouted. "Why isn't her VP coming back up?"
"Cause we were wrong! It's not from blood loss! What pain medication did she have?" The doctor asked while he was trying to stop the bleeding that was coming from her gunshot wound.
"Um, I gave her two milligrams of morphine." McNally answered. "But her charts didn't say anything about her being allergic!"
"Steve, is Julianna allergic to morphine?"
"No! uh, at least I don't think so… She's never been tested, never had it!"
"You're telling me that she didn't have morphine the last time she was shot!" The doctor was shouting over the beeping now! His adrenalin was up, and he knew that they were losing her, and fast.
"No, she didn't! I don't know the whole story!"
"Well we have no time to figure it out! Is she prone to seizures?"
"No, she's never had one."
Everyone that was inside and outside of Jules' room looked at the machines when the beeping slowed to almost nothing.
"We're losing her! She's coating!"
"Dammit! Get the crash carts!" Steve yelled.
The doctors and nurses ignored him and continued trying to stop the bleeding and calm her down.
"Come on! Someone get the paddles! You can save her!"
"Steve! We CAN'T use the crash cart!" McNally shouted to him.
"Why not?"
"Because Steve, she's pregnant!"
It seemed as if everything had stopped, that no one was making a sound, it seemed as if the world was dropping down on Steve's shoulders. But in reality, the doctors were still fighting for Jules' life, but they were running out of options.
"What about an epi pen?" Murphy asked.
"It's too late for that now." The doctor said quietly.
"So what do we do?"
"C.P.R to try and clear her airways. And then we wait." Doctor Edwards said as he quickly gauzed up Jules' wound and stared pressing down on her chest.
Nurse Murphy looked over to Steve who was sitting in the chair beside Jules' bed. He was wide-eyed and staring off into space. He had silent tears running down his face. Murphy was about to go talk to him, but McNally stopped her and whispered that he needed time.
Meanwhile, Team One was standing dumb founded as they watched the whole scene go down. They had watched Jules shaking and bleeding, they had heard the screaming and shouting. They heard McNally tell Steve that Jules was pregnant and they saw Steve now sitting in the chair, unable to move. But they also saw the doctor doing C.P.R and they also saw the shaking slow to a small movement, they also heard the beeping pick up to a steady beat, and the sighs of relief from the medical staff. They saw Jules cheat death once again.
They didn't move. They just stood there and stared as Steve came out of his trance and thanked the doctors.
But someone had to break the silence, and of course, that person was Spike. "Did that nurse really just tell Steve that Jules is pregnant?"
No one answered him. They all just stared at each other with their mouths hanging open.
"Close your mouths, you'll catch flies." A voice came from up the hall.
Greg looked to see three men approaching them. "Mr. Callaghan, thank God you're here!"
A/N- Ok, so I can't tell a lie, I got all of the medical terms from Grey's Anatomy, so I hope they are right. I'm no doctor, so I have no clue if I spelled them right or not. I hope you will excuse that :) As always, review please!
