Matildas POV:
Arriving in the ED i am greeted by reception. Noel shows me to the family room and the heads off too find Caleb. What feels like hours before i see Cal walking towards me. As he walks into the room i pull him towards me hugging hiim tight.
"Are you okay?" i ask as he reassures me he is fine.
"Its Ethan thats hurt mum. Come on they need to ask some questions and i don't know any of the answers." He leads me out of the room and towards resus. As i walk in i am met with the sight of him. Tubes and monitors going off. My baby! How could this happen? As i digest whats going on i am asked questions by the staff helping him.
" i presume. My name is Connie Beauchamp. I am treating your son. We just need a basic medical background on Ethan. Things like has he been hospitalised before? Allergies anything is going to help us." I stand in shock at the sight of him as i shake my head.
"Never been in hospital and no he has no allergies that we are aware of." I walk over and hold his hand.
"Please just help him. Whats wrong?" I ask desperate to help him. I hate this feeling. My baby is hurt and i cant help him. When either of them was hurt in the past i could make it better. I cant make this better. As hard as i try i cant make this go away.
"We are sending him for a scan very soon Matilda. We will be looking for any signs of bleeding etc." We will update yourself and Caleb as soon as we know whats going on ourselves.
Walking back into the relatives room Cal follows behind me. I turn to him and ask "You said he was hit? But i didn't really register what you said after. Something about you?" he looks at me guilty. "Me and Max were messing around mum. I fell back and Ethan saved me but he got hit." I felt angry.
"You mean he has been hurt, possible going to die because you were messing around!" I could see the hurt in his eyes but it didn't make a difference. His brother was hurt because of his idiocy.
"Mum..." Cal begins but i interrupt.
"No Caleb! GET OUT! You are not my son!" As i say it i realise what i have said but before anything else is said he runs out of the room and out of the ED altogether...
