2 Chapters in 2 days, I'm definitely on a roll! Hope you enjoy! My Medical expertise is a little lacking but I think I got some of the basics!

Disclaimer: You know how it goes

"Control to 3002, report of an unconscious female on Wellington Road, in the St Pauls area. It us unknown what had happened but the Police will meet you there."

"Received." Replied Jeff as Dixie pulled away and Jeff knocked the blues and twos on.

They made their way to the location. They could see the police tape up around the scene. And beyond that was two police officers either side of the female, one holding her head and the other checking her breathing and her pulse. Jeff and Dixie could see blonde hair splayed out and smeared with red. As they walked closer to her they realised they recognised the body in front of them.

"Dix is that-

"Hollie" finished Dixie as they ran over to her.

"Hollie, can you hear me. If you can, please squeeze my hand." Said Dixie "She's not responsive Jeff."

"Hollie? Princess? Please squeeze Dixie's hand." Begged Jeff. "Princess, can you open your eyes?" she managed to force them open into a squint before they closed again.

"Let's get her head-blocked Jeff in case there's any damage to the neck." Said Dixie as they put head-blocked her and put her on a spinal board. They put a few lines in her arms and took her vitals, loading her into the back of the ambulance.

They brought her into the ED in a rush and seeing Zoe on her way out of the ED, they grabbed her "Zoe, this is Hollie McDonald, 26 years old, picked her up in the St Pauls area of town, head injury, query fractured arm, Pulse 40, resps 16, BP 96/48, GCS 5, she's been unconscious apart from her eye flickering to speech once but apart from that she has been unresposive" Dixie read off the rest of the vital stats, as they pushed her into Resus.

Nick had just finished treating his patient who would be transferred up to medical admissions, he looked at his watch, wishing this shift would be over. He had to go and sort things out with Hollie. He just couldn't leave things the way they were. He hoped she would forgive him. It was 6.55pm, he only had 5 minutes before he could get out of here. But surely no one would notice if he left now. Yes, he was going to leave now. He was about to make for the swinging doors and head for his office when Zoe, Dixie, and Jeff came crashing in.

"I could use some help over here Nick."

"I was on my way home Zoe."

"So was I, but Jeff and Dixie shouted me back and I think you'll want to help."

Nick nodded and walked over towards Zoe, there was an unconscious female on a spinal board. He couldn't see her face, but what he did see was the ring on her left middle finger, it was exactly the same as the infinity ring he had given her, just a plain silver band with the infinity symbol on, and funnily enough it was on the same finger as she wore it, It was then that Nick saw her face, that beautiful china like face, except there was a bruise streaking over her cheekbone, beginning to get darker, there was blood all matted in her hair. He needed to help her. He had to make things right. And yet no matter how much he wanted to help her, he was paralysed. It was like he was stuck in quicksand, slowly sinking, incapable of moving. He just stood there. Staring. How could this have happened to Hollie? He should never have just let her go.

"Nick, she's got a GCS of 5, and is unresponsive, we need to send her for a CT scan immediately but I'm worried about her blood levels."

It was then he snapped out of it and straight into action. Tess hurried over quickly.

"Tess, I want FBC, U&Es and LFTs, Zoe I need you to inform the neurological trauma team, I'm going to take some blood for cross-matching, in case there's a need for surgery."

Each Doctor and Nurse got on with their task.

"She's brachycardic and hypertensive. There could be a Hematoma in there. Lets get her stabilised and in for a CT as soon as possible."

Nick proceeded to have a look at her head and there was an external sign of a second head injury.

It wasn't long after that, that her resps began to drop

"Zoe, we need to intubate, her resps and heart rate are dropping fast, Charlie check that there's a CT slot."

"When do you want the slot?"

"5 minutes ago."

"Thank you." Charlie said as he put the phone back down. "We've got to get down there now."

"Zoe, keep an eye on the ED, Charlie come with me." Nick said as they took the breaks off the trolley and rushed it out of rhesus. As they made their way up to the X-RAY department, Zoe came running after them.

"Nick, wait!" she shouted, they stopped at the lift and she caught up with him. "Nick, she's pregnant."

Nick froze for a moment. Pregnant? But surely not. She couldn't be! Could she? He didn't know what to do with this information. Hollie was pregnant with his baby, but he couldn't risk Hollie's life. "Pregnant or not, we go ahead."

Nick and Charlie stood in the little room where the scans would be sent to, they waited patiently and then the scan pictures were up on the screen. Nick could see that there was a subdural hematoma, putting quite a bit of pressure on her brain.

"Get on to the Trauma Team, tell them to expect us immediately with a patient presenting a subdural hematoma."

They transferred her from the CT suite and along to the neurological Trauma ward, where she was prepped for surgery and whisked away for a craniotomy, the surgeons would remove a section of skull, remove the hematoma and put the removed section of skull back into place.

Nick sat down outside the theatre, he couldn't leave. He had to sit and wait. She was his soul mate, there was no way he could leave her fighting for her life in there.

"Nick, how about we go and get a cup of tea, you know as well as I do that it's going to take a few hours for this."

"I can't leave her Charlie." Nick pleaded, his eyes about to begin watering with tears. Charlie had wondered what was going on here but at this moment he could see right through Nick and he knew exactly what was going on right now.

"Nick, is Hollie this mysterious girl of yours?" asked Charlie, insightfully.

"I can't lose her Charlie." Sobbed Nick
