Ethans POV:
Lifting Alicia onto a bed we bring her through to resus. We begin to administer everything possible until Alicia stops us in our tracks.
"No more drugs! I cant have any drugs" we all stare confused. As i ask them to leave i sit down next to her and ask what is going on.
" I just don't want anything. I'm fine babe. Just dizzy that's all." I'm still concerned but i don't fight it. It will only make her worse and that's not worth it. I kiss her on the head and get back to work making Connie promise to inform me if anything else changes.
Going back to work its hard to focus on everything else when i know she is in there. What is wrong. Why wont she have any pain meds to help? Just then Connie calls me through with panic filling her voice. Rushing through to resus i find Alicia on the bed screamin in agony. Getting down beside her i ask whats wrong but with no success. Connie orders an immediate ultrasound fearing there is a bleed somewhere. As the ultraspund machine arrives Connie takes a look and i see her facial expression change as she leaves to go get someone else. Just then Duffy walks in.
Duffys POV:
Taking a look at Alicia i see what Connie was talking about. I sigh as i ask everyone else to leave the room so that i can talk to Ethan and Alicia alone. As i sit on the edge of the bed i can see that Alicia knows exactly what i am about to say but Ethan is still as confused and worried as before.
"Alicia you were pregnant. About 16 weeks by the looks of things. Unfortunately baby has passed away. Im so sorry. I will leave you two alone for now" and with that i leave the room.
Ethans POV;
I cant register what has just been said. Baby? She was pregnant. The hardest part is saying was. I look at Alicia cogs turning in my head as i work things out.
"You didnt want meds. Did you lnow you was pregnant?" she looks at me tears filling her eyes as she responds.
"Yea i did. Ive known for about 8 weeks now but didnt know how to say. I've been having some pain for a couple of days. Thought it would pass though so i didnt say anything." i cpuld feel the anger building up inside me.
"We could have done something Alicia! They could have saved our baby but because you didnt say anything our child is dead! How could you?!" this is the last thing i say as i get up and leave the ED to head back home...
