The next day Rossi took everyone aside. He'd been given some alarming news that he didn't want Aaron to know at least not yet. He knew he had to let the others know though the update on the nurse.
"Dave, what is it?" Emily asked concerned.
"They've arrested the nurse..." Dave answered.
"But..."
"After interviewing her they've decided to charge her on two charges."
"Two?"
He looked down and nodded. "Criminal negligence and attempted murder."
"Attempted murder?" Emily answered horrified. How could they let in a nurse who could do such a thing to her Aaron. Why would they want to kill a hero?
"Turns out she's Juliet Capshaw's sister and when she heard what had happened she decided she wouldn't let him get away with killing the father of her sister's child..."
Emily's eyes opened wide whilst Carrie looked down. Emily looked at her alarmed and got down beside her. "Carrie, what is it?" she asked concerned.
"Juliet said she'd make him pay," she answered. "When she got arrested she cried she'd make Aaron pay for killing Darrell."
Dave got down beside the young woman and said, "Carrie, this isn't your fault. We weren't to know her sister was a nurse working at St Sebastian."
She nodded. "But Aaron..."
"Aaron's going to be alright. He's out of that hospital now and he's begun to make a proper recovery. You heard the doctor his fever should lift in a day or two and his stab wounds are finally healing properly. The nurses are very diligent in how often they check and clean his stitches."
She nodded and they went in to see him. Emily sat by his head and she played with his sweaty hair and ran her hand down the side of his face while he looked up at her vulnerably.
"How are you feeling?" she asked tenderly.
"Still terrible," he answered looking down. "I'm just glad I've stopped being sick."
"Same here but you'll be better soon. The doctor said your fever should lift in a day or two."
He nodded. "Good. I never want to feel like this again."
"Neither do I.," she answered kissing his forehead.
