Next chapter! And a special thanks to keelzz64 for making my day with my first ever review :D Sorry if I get any of the America-ness wrong (do you guys have motorways over there?) I live in England, so please excuse my especially English writing styles.
Drop me a review, constructive criticism fuels me. :)
Toodle pip!

Chapter four - Forty minutes earlier

Thirteen

I'm going to be so late. I had to stop for petrol but my hands were shaking so badly that one of the attendants had to help me.

"Are you sure you should be driving?" she asked me skeptically. I nodded, smiling at her.

"Oh, yeah. This happens all the time. It's just the coffee I drank this morning. Had a bit of an adverse reaction. I'll be fine, but thanks." She looked at my doubtfully, but stood back to let me into the car all the same. I thanked her again and sped off.

"Oh come on, move faster" I muttered. I had been forced to crawl behind the aggravatingly slow pickup truck for nearly ten minutes now. I beeped my horn for the third time to show my annoyance, and then with an exasperated sigh pulled out from behind the truck into the opposite lane, trying to overtake it. I turned the blind bend at 45mph and didn't see the silver Ford until it was too late.

Thirteen

My car-phone went off when I was on the motorway, but as I tried to pick it up in my trembling hand I dropped it again. 'Damn' I thought, leaning down to quickly pick it up. I glanced at the screen to find that instead of it being House as I'd expected, it was Foreman. Deciding it could wait, I slid the phone back into the holder and looked back up the road, my eyes opening wide at the sight of the Land Rover I was about to collide with.

Noticing that Cuddy wasn't the only one interested in the latest 'gossip', I took her arm and led her aside.
"She's hanging in there, but I'm worried about her breathing. It already tried to give up on us once today, and she seems quite... Weak.
She hasn't responded to her OBS at all, even when we caused her pain. I don't want to have to do an invasive brain activity examination, but if she doesn't improve by the end of today we may have to. She also has fractured ribs and a laceration on her torso that I just finished stitching up.
Foreman's in with her right now."
I motioned towards the cubicle that we'd placed Thirteen in. Cuddy sighed.
"I'm gonna go see how she's doing and see if Foreman's ok."
I nodded and left her to it.

A couple of minutes later she came to find me in the ED.
"Will you let me know if anything happens?" she asked. I nodded, knowing immediately what she meant. She placed an empathetic hand on my shoulder and headed back to her office.

Ok, that's it for now. I will have another chapter up by Thursday 17th June, I promise :) In fact, I'm going to start writing it tonight, so keep checking back.
Leave me your comments, and if you have any requests/suggestions on how you'd like the story to go, let me know and I might just take you up on it.
Thanks for reading!
