"How are you feeling?" She asked as soon as she enter the ward. She walked towards him and stopped in front of him.

"My head just hurts.." She answered weakly.

"Well that would get better with time," she assured her.

After spending a few minutes with him Connie decided to leave. It was the end of her shift and she could really do when going home and relax after such a hectic day. "Well I will see you tomorrow." She said and began to leave whoever, Jacob caught her hand.

She turned around to see him smiling slightly.

"Thank you." He simply said. "Thank you for saving me."

She looked at him, tears threatening to come but she had to be strong. She nearly lost the man she loves..the father of her child. Putting a brave face on, she said, "get well soon Staff Nurse Masters." She left him and went towards her office where she collected her bag and coat and left the ED.

She laid on her bed trying to sleep but couldn't. All she could think about was Jacob. Everything kept re-playing over and over again, constantly reminding her of the events she wanted to forget.

Her phone beeped. It was a message, from Jacob!

"Can't sleep!"

"Me neither." She replied.

"Try to. Been a hectic day for you."

"I am trying but can't."

"Thinking about me right?" :)

"You wish."

"Aha, you know I am right sweet cheeks."

"No and who gave you permission to call me that.?!"

"Myself! You know you actually like it."

"Bye Jacob! I am sleeping now."

"Bye sweet cheeks! Xx

She finally fell asleep with a smile on her face. He always knew how to change her mood nowadays.

"So when can I go home?" He asked the doctor who was checking him.

"Tonight if you feel alright." Doc replied.

"Finally, it's boring here." He chuckled.

Connie walked in and smiled at him. "Morning Staff Nurse Masters."

"Mrs B." Was all he said. "Doctor here is saying I can be discharged today. Looking forward to it."

"Ermm...I think another week would be better." She told him. "You need to rest."

"I prefer going home." He replied.

"But you live on your own Jacob." She said. "How can you do anything on your own in this condition?!"

" I will manage." He said then smiled at her. "Don't worry."

After much thinking she decided she needed to step in. "You are coming with me." She firmly said.

" nah..it's not necessary-" he said but was cut off by Connie interrupting.

"No arguments, you are staying with me." She said. "I will come and collect you at the end of my shift." With that she left the room not wanting to argue with him...a smile forming on her face...
