Awake

"Well, Lucy we didn't expect you to wake up quite so early." The doctor smiled as she swallowed hard.

"No? Well, full of surprises me."

"Indeed." Lee noticed the sarcasm in her voice. She glanced at him as the doctor left the room.

"What happened?"

"Well." Lee paused, unsure of how much to tell her. "You were on your way to work. Your mum said you were late but the crash wasn't your fault. The lorry hit you head on."

"I see."

"Do you remember anything else?"

"No. Nothing much. Just brakes screeching and then waking up and you holding my hand."

"Tim is home. Daisy and your parents."

"Who's Daisy? Tim?" Lee froze for a moment.

"Our Daisy? Tim's your brother, my best friend. Daisy, well she's his girlfriend."

"I have a brother?"

"Yeah." Lee felt the fear grip his stomach. "And a fiancé. Do you remember him?"

"What!"

"Lucy!"

She smiled slightly as Lee panicked. He shook his head.

"Don't. Don't do that."

"I don't remember the accident and I don't remember much of the days since but remember the people I love. I just couldn't resist." Lee rolled his eyes.

"You scared me then. After all it took for us to get together!"

"Lee, calm down. I remember coming to the bar to tell you I was leaving, that I had an interview for an amazing new job. Then you asked me not to go and we ended up snogging each other's faces off! That I remember."

"I'll never forget that."

"There is one thing bothering me and I promise I'm not joking." Lucy bit her lip as Lee swallowed hard.

"Go on."

"My legs. They don't seem to work."

"You broke the left one. From the knee down." Lee nodded towards her cast, which he and Daisy had artistically decorated for her. Lucy sighed.

"I'd noticed. But shouldn't it hurt? Shouldn't I be able to move my toes?" Lee frowned he nodded.

"Dunno, I've never broken my leg. We'll have to ask the doctor." He kissed her gently hoping the doctor would bring them some good news.
