Authors note: Thank you for your wonderful reviews from my faithful readers and I am very happy that you liked the last chapter even though I haven't been on here in a long time. I have skipped a head a bit saying that it is half term for Ella and Savannah as it will make the story more fun and Britney will be in this chapter or maybe the next one . Like always Mistakes are my own.
First thing Monday morning Zoe and Nick rushed around the house as they had clearly forgotten to set their alarm clocks they both rushed round like headless chickens as Ella and Savannah just stood and watched smirking as they watched their parents.
Finally they left the house and jumped in the car and headed to the hospital. Savannah was excited as she hasn't spent the whole day with her parents at work so she was rather excited and nervous at the same time.
Nick pulled in to his reserved parking space turned the engines off but did not unlock the car as he wanted to have a word with Ella and Savannah about being at the hospital.
"Ok girls, I have a couple of rules" Nick said as he turned round to face Ella and Savannah who sat in the back seat. Ella rolled her eyes as she knew her father would say something after the last time she was here she was in a bed for a while and the same for Savannah.
"Rule 1: this is a hospital and we respect our patients at all times no matter how gory they look alright, Rule 2: you do as your mother and I tell you to and no moaning about it. Finally rule 3: behave yourself or you will spend the whole time with me in my boring meetings understood" Nick said firmly to both girls who nodded in agreement.
"You always make things so business like sometimes Nick "Zoe laughed as she climbed out the passenger seat and walked round the car where Nick too hold of Zoe's hand. Zoe and Nick waited for a ambulance to drive past but Ella nearly walked out in front of the ambulance if Nick hadn't of let go of Zoe and pulled Ella back in time.
"Ella what the hell did you think you were doing "Zoe demanded as she shook Ella who was in shock and shaking.
"I...I... I just didn't look I guess" Ella shrugged knowing that this would anger both her parents
"You were nearly killed and you have an attitude like you couldn't careless" Nick shouted which made Jeff and Dixie look round as it was them who were driving the ambulance that nearly knock Ella over.
"It's alright Mr J, I saw her and I would have stopped in plenty of time" Dixie said as she helped Jeff get the patient of the back off the ambulance.
"Thank you Dixie, I know you would "Nick smiled but smile lingered on his face only for a few moments to be replaced by anger before he forced Ella a cross the road to the ED entrance.
"Dad get off me, I'm sorry "Ella said as she tried to loosen Nick grip on her wrist.
Nick, Ella, Zoe and Savannah walked in to the ED and stopped at the reception desk where Ella had enough of Nick holding on to her arm.
"Dad get off me now" Ella demanded
"Everything alright Mr J "Noel asked as he as the Jordan's standing at the desk and Ella arguing with Nick.
"Yeah everything is alright thanks Noel "Zoe said cheerfully as she stood and looked through some paper work even though she had not started her shift yet as Noel walked away.
"Alright I will let go but look where you are going in future Ella as you gave me and your mother a fright "Nick said as he let go of Ella.
"I'm sorry dad but I really didn't look where I was going"
"Ok forgotten "Nick went to say goodbye to Zoe for needed to go to a meeting but he was stopped as Ella hugged her father. Nick placed a kiss on the top of her head and held her tight. Lenny, Sam, Dylan, Big Mac and Noel watched as Nick hugged his daughter back as he was not known to show such a soft side at work as he is their boss. Nick saw all of them standing watching him so he let go of Ella.
"What are you all looking at and why are you standing round when you should all have more important things to do" Nick demand but once everyone had gone away Nick winked at Zoe and placed a soft kiss on her lips said goodbye to his girls and head for the very boring meeting that he need to attend unfortunately otherwise he'd rather be down here watching a close eye on his girls.
"Ok girls" Zoe said as she started walking towards the staffroom to put her belongings in her locker.
"Mum?" Savannah asked as she looked round the staffroom when her large animated eyes fell upon the biscuit tin.
"Yes" Zoe asked as she locked her locker and turned round to see what Savannah was looking at and asking for.
"Yes, you can have one biscuit and one only" Savannah walked over to the kitchen work top and grabbed the biscuit tin and pulled out a custard crème and lobbed one over to Ella who just about caught it before it landed on the floor.
"Thank savvy" Ella said as she munched on her biscuit.
"Let's go Girls, you will be working with me and don't you dare wonder off when I go to get something or I will tell you father" Zoe said she placed her purple stethoscope round her neck. Zoe knew that if he mentioned Nick the girls would behave as he was usually the stricter parent out of the 2.
As soon as Zoe stepped out of the staffroom she was met with a woman with a fork in her neck so they wheeled her into resus.
"What have got Dixie?" Zoe asked as she walked over to her new patient
"Ok we have Mrs brooks, with a fork in the neck and her Gcs is 3 and she's rather tachy cardic and she's had 10 of morphine on scene.
"Alright thank you Dixie" Zoe said cheerfully
Savannah whispered to Ella "is me or has that woman really got a fork in her neck?" Ella whispered back "Yes she has got a fork in her neck"
"Ok can someone call neuro and get then down here and another 5 of morphine" Zoe demanded. Zoe turned round to make sure the girls were still there and not wondered off then carried on with her patient.
