Chapter 17
Aaron smiled gratefully at Liam as he packed his things into a holdall. Aaron was now fit to be discharged, on strict instructions that he has plenty of bedrest.
"You don't have to do this Liam." Aaron smiled
"No. You're supposed to be resting."
"I'm sure I can pack a few things into a holdall Li!"
"But I'm not taking that chance. Anyway, here." Liam smiled, holding out some clean clothes for Aaron. "You'll be able to manage right?"
"Yes Doctor! I'll be fine!" Aaron laughed, getting out of the bed and heading to the bathroom.
A loud crash was on heard from the other side of the door. Liam raced to it, pounding furiously "Aaron? AARON!"
Getting no response, and realising the door was locked he ran into the corridoor. "Can someone help!"
Dr Cameron ran towards Liam "Mr. Turner What's happened?"
"Aaron went to get dressed in the bathroom, I heard a crash and he won't answer me and I cant open the door!"
Doctor Cameron calmly walked into the room and softly knocked on the door. "Aaron? Aaron can you hear me?"
Getting no response the doctor had no choice but to break down the door, He found Aaron lying on the tiled floor, out cold, blood surrounding his head.
"Is he going to be ok?"
"Yes, Help me lift him up, we need to get him back on the bed."
The two men lifted Aaron up and carried him back into the room, laying him down gently on the bed.
Dr Cameron examined the wound on Aaron's head and decided it needed stitches, he called a nurse to clean Aaron up.
"Looks like Mr. Livesy will be staying an extra night." Dr. Cameron smiled.
"He can't leave later on today?"
"It's quite a serious head wound Mr. Turner. Hospital procedure, he'll need a scan and will need to stay in overnight. I'm sorry."
Liam sighed and nodded, running his hands across his face. He laughed to himself as He remembered what Chas had said to him, Aaron always does it too.
Leaving the nurse to carry on dealing with Aaron's injury, Liam went outside to ring Chas.
"Chas It's Liam. Aaron's not gonna be coming home today. No, He's fine. CHAS! he's ok! The dozy git fell over while getting dressed and knocked himself out! They've gotta keep him in overnight cause there's slight bleeding. Yes I will. No you don't need to come down. Chas, listen to me! It's a little cut, nothing serious, but they have to keep him in, Hospital procedure apparently! Yes I will. Alright, Bye." Liam groaned in frustration, understanding now why Aaron flound his mother so annoying.
eeeeee
**** Smithy Cottage
A knock on the door disturbed Paddy from his lunch "Yeah it's open!"
Chas entered the warm kitchen, and Paddy knew straight away she had been crying.
"What's happened Chas?"
"I just got a phonecall from Liam. They're not letting Aaron out yet. I'm sorry for coming over here in this state." Chas half-smiled, gesturing to her mascara stained eyes
"What's happened?"
"He was getting dressed in the bathroom, getting ready to leave and he fell over and knocked himself out."
Paddy tried to hold back his giggiling "That's awful."
"Paddy!"
"What? Only Aaron could do something like that!" Paddy smiled
"It's not funny! They're keeping him in a bit longer. Probably until tomorrow."
"Well then, that's not long at all."
"I know. But he was so happy about coming home."
"It's only one more day Chas. He's still got Liam there, He'll be fine."
eeeeeee
Aaron groaned as the harsh light invaded his delicate head. He opened his eyes slightly and focused on Liam, sitting beside his bed "What happened?"
"You were getting dressed in the bathroom, and you fell over and knocked yourself out."
"Ugh. It can only happen to me. When am I going home?"
"Not until tomorrow now babe. I'll let Dr. Cameron know you're awake."
Liam kissed the top of Aaron's head and disappeared from the room, soon returning with Dr. Cameron
"Ah Mr. Livesy. Good to have you back with us again. How do you feel?"
"Ok, I guess."
"Well, there's no lasting damage, theres a bit of swelling and we had to give you a few stitches, I'll go and sort you out some pain relief, hopefully you'll be ok to leave tomorrow morning."
"Providing you don't do another Torvil & Dean routine in there!" Liam laughed, pointing to the bathroom
"Who's Torvil and Dean?"
Liam smiled and shook his head "Don't worry about it."
"Muppet."
"Says you. I reckon you did this delibratley cause you fancy Dr. Cameron!"
"I do not!"
"It's ok, I won't get jealous. He's cute. Nice arse too."
"Nah, too boyband-ish for my liking."
"Which coincidentally increases his chances of being gay!"
"Tell you what, you sit there and drool over James and I'll go to sleep."
"Oh so it's James now, is it? Ey, 'ang on, didn't he direct Titanic?"
"Li?"
"Yeah?"
"Shut up." Aaron smiled, closing his eyes and relaxing against the pillows.
