Warren

I groaned in pain as consciousness came back to me. I squinted into the brightness as I opened my eyes to find that I was in the back of an ambulance. My mind raced as I tried to remember what had happened to me. I struggled to look around the ambulance trying to work out what had happened to me. Neither Kirsty or Nita were with me just a butch looking woman who was studying a machine beside me.

Then I remember what had happened. It all came flooding back to me in one go. I had no idea if Kirsty was still alive, but if she was I was going to kill her. She had been cheating on me this whole time with Adam, there was no way she was going to get away with it.

I had known all this time but she had denied it and foolishly I believed her. Well now they are both going to pay for making me look like a fool.

"Kirsty, where's Kirsty? Is she ok?" I reeled off to the paramedic beside me.

"She's getting the best care Mr Clements." So it didn't look good.

"I need to see her. She has to be alright." I struggle to sit up.

"Please Mr Clements you need to look after yourself first. Kirsty would want that for you." I nod in agreement with her statement even though it was about as far from the truth as you could get. I settled back down onto the gurney to plan my story for the police.

I arrive at the hospital and am quick moved into cubicles. Kirsty's colleagues question me about what happened and how she was doing and I spin off some story about how we interrupted a burglar who knocked me out. I was waiting desperately for news on Kirsty and it appeared that she was doing badly because Adam hadn't bothered to tell anyone that it was me who had injured her.

Kirsty's colleagues pandered to me whilst they carried out all kinds of test on me. All the time I was questioning them about Kirsty, waiting for news on her and keeping my eyes peeled on the door waiting for her to be wheeled in or for Adam to storm in ready to tear my head off because she hadn't made it to the hospital.

I was finally put out of my misery when Kirsty was wheeled through the door. She was connected to all kinds of machines and looked awful, but Adam and Nita where no where to be seen. I watched as she was wheeled straight into rhesus and they all set about saving her, again.

Finally they seemed to stabilise her and I watched as Nita raced to her mother's side at her first chance. Most of the doctors and nurses filtered out of the room leaving only a couple of nurses to watch over her.

I disconnect myself from all the machines around me and start making my way towards my family.

"Mr Clements." I stopped in my tracks and turned to find Tess, the woman Kirsty was so scared of being late for stood arms crossed behind me.

"Please, I just want to see her. I'll be quick." Her expression softened and I knew I had gotten my way.

"Very quickly."

"Thank you." I said to her and I meant it. I walked towards rhesus expecting to be tackled to the floor any moment but it never happened. Instead my hand came to rest on the cold metal handle to the door. I paused for a moment knowing what I was about to do then swung the door open with force.

Everyone turned to see who was entering and I heard Nita whimper at my presence. I stalked over to Kirsty's bed. Nita was sat on a chair that was pulled up to the bed. She had one of Kirsty's hands in both of hers and her eyes were puffy from crying. The gentle bleeping from the heart monitor caught my attention and I watched the green line spike several times across the screen.

I stopped directly behind Nita and I saw her tense at my presents but she didn't move to look round at me but kept her eyes on her mother. I rested a heavy hand on her shoulder making her know that she was going to go along with whatever happened now.

"Mind giving us a minuet?" I asked the two nurses on duty. They both nodded at me saying that they would be back shortly. The door swung shut behind them and I was left alone with my wife and my daughter.

I walked over to the door. There was no lock on it but I hadn't expected there to be, instead I scanned the room looking for anything that would help me to barricade the door closed.

I found what I was looking for and snatched up a pair of crutches that were leaning against the wall and slipped them through the door handles. I strolled back to the bed my eyes fixed on Nita who was watching me with terror in her eyes. I found a twisted smile for her but it was broken by shouting and banging at the door behind me.

I spun around; surprise, surprise. Who was stood there? No other than Doctor Adam Trueman himself. He looked like he was ready to murder me but he had one problem. He was on the wrong side on the door.

I watched his face fall as he realised that I had barricaded us in and fear creap into his eyes. I smirked at him knowing that he could only watch me now.

I can't believe I haven't written for ages really didn't mean to leave you guys hanging for so long, so thank you for bearing with me. Thank you to Gillian Kearney Fan for reviewing my last chapter - and me I love Adam, especially when he's racing to the rescue! Thanks for reading :)
