Chapter Two.

Dixie parked the ambulance as close as she could to the cars that had crashed, one of the cars had clearly crossed the central barrier and crashed into the front of the other one. 'Okay, Hannah I want you to take the nearest car with me. Jeff, take the car furthest away.' Hannah nodded and followed Dixie to the car, Dixie opened the door and sat by the woman that was in there. 'Hello sweetheart, I'm Dixie and this is Hannah, we're going to help you. What's your name?'

'Alana.'

'All right Alana, where does it hurt darling?'

'My legs, they're stuck.'

'Okay, don't worry, I'm just going to give you some pain relief and then we'll get you out.'

'It's not me I'm worried about, it's my daughter, she disappeared when we crashed, I think she was scared. Please, you must find her.'

'Don't worry, we'll find her. Hannah?'

'Yes Dixie.'

'We need to find the little girl, she could be injured.'

'I'll go.' Hannah sat next to Alana while Dixie put a line in. 'Alana, what's your daughter called?'

'Lauren, if you go in the bag on the floor you'll find a rabbit, Lauren calls him Fluffy, if you have him with you then Lauren will trust you. Please, find her.'

'Don't worry, I will find her.' Hannah put her hand on Alana's shoulder and took the rabbit out of the bag, she hoped that she would be able to find the little girl.

Hannah made her way through into the trees that lined the road, no doubt the accident had scared the little girl and she had run away to hide. 'Lauren, can you hear me? Your mummy sent me to find you, she gave me Fluffy.' Hannah waited a few moments and then called out to Lauren again, she hoped that the little girl wasn't injured and unconscious somewhere. Hannah was about to give up hope when she saw a movement in some bushes. 'Lauren?' Hannah was careful not to move too quickly, she didn't want to frighten the little girl. The bushes moved again and Hannah carefully parted them to find the little girl sat inside. 'Hello, are you Lauren?' The little girl shyly nodded and reached out for the rabbit that Hannah held.

'Fluffy,' she whispered. Hannah handed the rabbit to Lauren. 'Who are you?'

'I'm Hannah, are you hurt?'

'My hand hurts.'

'Shall we go and make it better?' Lauren nodded and Hannah picked her up, she would check her over in the ambulance.

Dixie sat with Alana as the firemen cut open the front of the car so that they could get her out, she had given her enough pain relief to last throughout the cutting, but Alana was getting quite worked up over the fact that her daughter was still missing. Jeff came over and stood behind Dixie. 'Dixie, Polly and Simon have taken the other driver to hospital. Where's Hannah?'

'She's trying to find the little girl from this car.'

'Oh, do you need me to do anything?'

'Stay here, we'll be ready to get Alana to the ambulance soon. I just hope Hannah is back by then.'

'Don't worry Dix, I'm sure she will be.'

'You're right.' Dixie tried to put aside the worry that she felt and got herself ready for moving Alana to the ambulance, she busied herself with checking the spinal board and equipment as a way of keeping her hands busy.

Hannah carefully carried Lauren into the ambulance and checked her over, she was aware that Alana would want to know that her daughter had been found, but Hannah wanted to ensure that there was nothing wrong with Lauren first. Hannah wrapped the little girl in a survival blanket as she was a little bit cold. Once she was satisfied that Lauren wasn't seriously injured, Hannah knelt down in front of her. 'I just have to go and see my friend, I won't be long, okay?'

'Okay.'

'Good girl.' Hannah stepped off the ambulance and asked one of the policemen to look after Lauren for her, she took a deep breath and went to find Dixie.

Dixie looked around at the sound of Hannah's voice calling her. 'Did you find Lauren?'

'I did, she's in the ambulance, one of the policemen is looking after her.'

'Good work, well done.'

'I'd like to tell Alana.'

'Go ahead.' Dixie let Hannah take her place next to Alana and she watched as Hannah told her that she'd found her daughter.

Hannah took Alana's hand in her own as she sat with her. 'Did you find Lauren, tell me you found her.'

'I did.'

'Is she okay, she's not hurt?'

'No, a few scratches from the bushes and a graze on her hand and knee, but other than that she's all right.'

'Thank you, thank you so much.'

'You're welcome, she's a lovely kid.' Hannah stepped back so Dixie and Jeff could strap Alana onto the board to protect her spine. Once she was fully secured they took her to the ambulance and Hannah got in first, she sat down and put Lauren on her knee. 'What is wrong with my mummy?'

'She's not very well, we're going to see the nice doctors at the hospital and they will make her better.' Hannah watched Dixie climb into the back and put the brakes on the trolley. Jeff closed the doors and climbed into the front of the ambulance, he started the engine and moved off towards the hospital.

Dixie filled in the paperwork for Alana, she heard Lauren whispering to Hannah.'Who is that lady?'

'That's Dixie, she's helping your mummy.'

'Who's he?' Lauren pointed to the front of the ambulance.

'That's Jeff.'

'Is that his job, does he drive people around?'

'I'm the hero, princess, I save all the pretty girls like you,' Jeff said from the front. Lauren looked like she was thinking about something.

'Does that mean you saved Hannah and Dixie too, they are pretty.' Dixie smiled at Lauren, the little girl was very curious, she would be very intelligent when she was older. 'I had to save Dixie from the wrong side of the bed by telling her my jokes.'

'Are you two married?'

'No, sweetheart, Jeff is my friend and we share a house, but we're not married.' Dixie looked at Hannah who was trying not to laugh, she quickly averted her gaze or she would not be able to keep her composure.

Hannah took Lauren into the emergency department at Holby, Dixie and Jeff followed with Alana and took care of the handover to the emergency team. Hannah had taken the number for Alana's husband from Dixie and she approached the man at the reception desk. 'Are you Noel?'

'I am, what can I do for you?'

'This is Lauren, her mum is currently in resus and we need to track her dad down, this is his number.' Noel took the number from Hannah and placed it by the phone. 'You're Hannah, the new paramedic.'

'I am, nice to meet you.' Hannah used her free hand to shake the one that Noel held out.

'Nice to meet you too Hannah, I'll get on this straight away.'

'Thank you. One question, where's paeds?'

'Through the double doors, then take the first door on the left.'

'Thanks Noel.'

'You're welcome.' Hannah left the reception desk and took Lauren to the paeds section of the emergency department, there was a man inside and he turned when Hannah entered. 'Hello, can I help you?'

'I was wondering if you could take a look at Lauren, she's had a bit of a rough day.'

'Hello Lauren, I'm Tom, what happened to you?'

'I fell over.'

'Come on sweetie, I believe I have a magic plaster here somewhere.' Hannah sat Lauren on the bed and watched as Tom cleaned up her injuries.

Jeff walked through the ED, Dixie had gone to take the trolley back to the ambulance, his attention was caught by a man at the reception desk. 'I'm looking for my daughter and my wife, I received a phone call telling me that they are here after being in a car accident.'

'What are their names?'

'Alana and Lauren Robinson.'

'It's all right Noel, I'll take him.' The man turned to Jeff. 'I was part of the crew that was called out to your wife and daughter.'

'Lauren is in paeds with Hannah,' Noel interjected.

'Cheers Noel.' Jeff opened the door to paeds and was met by Hannah holding the hand of the little girl, the minute she saw her dad, Lauren ran to him. 'Daddy!'

'Is she all right?'

'She's fine, nothing that a plaster won't solve.' Hannah smiled at Lauren and her father.

'Thank you, all of you. Could you take me to my wife?'

'I'll take him,' Tom said.

'Hannah found me daddy, she helped me feel better.'

'What do we say to Hannah?'

'Thank you.'

'You're welcome, look after Fluffy okay, can you do that?' Lauren nodded and Hannah hugged her. Jeff and Hannah waved at the little girl and went back to the ambulance station.

Dixie and Polly were sat together in the rec room when Hannah and Jeff came back. Hannah's phone rang as she and Jeff entered the building. 'It's David, my previous boss, he'll want to know how my first day is going. I'll be in soon.' Dixie looked behind Jeff when he came in.

'Where's Hannah?'

'Her other boss called, she's talking to him now.'

'Right, while she's not here, how do we think she is fitting in?'

'She's lovely,' Polly jumped in quickly. 'She likes the same music as me, she's a Muse fan, she plays four instruments. Her mother made her take ballroom dancing lessons until she was sixteen when she quit them to go to college.'

'Polly, take a breath.' Jeff smiled at Polly's enthusiasm.

'I think Polly likes our new colleague, Jeff.'

'I know someone who definitely likes our colleague, right Dixie, maybe it's those cat-like green eyes.'

'Shut up Jeffrey.' Dixie glared at Jeff, she wished he would let it go.

Polly looked between Dixie and Jeff. 'What's going on?'

'Nothing Polly, Jeff just mentioned that Hannah is quite attractive and I agreed, that's all.' Polly knew that Dixie was a lesbian, though she'd never heard Dixie mention anything about a girlfriend or partner. According to Jeff, Dixie hadn't been on a date since something happened with Cyd and it had hurt her quite badly. Dixie had been unusually subdued around that time so maybe Jeff was right. 'Perhaps we should drop it Jeff, Dixie doesn't want to talk about it. Besides Hannah is coming back.' Polly made room for Hannah on the sofa that she was sat on. 'Is your boss satisfied that we're looking after you?'

'Don't worry Polly, I've told him that everyone is very nice.'

'Good, I'm glad, because we like you.'

'Thank you, I like you all as well.'

'We should do something to celebrate your first week here.'

'I know,' Jeff said. 'On Saturday we can have pizza and an evening of Wii gaming at our house.' Dixie gave Jeff a sideways look. 'Come on, it will be fun. Are you in everyone?'

'Okay, I am, if only to keep an eye on you Jeffrey.'

'Polly, Hannah?'

'Yes, definitely. Come on Hannah, please say yes.' Polly pleaded with Hannah to come to the little party, she really wanted to get to know her better.

'Okay, I'd love to.'

'Give me your address princess and I'll come and pick you up.'

'Thanks Jeff.'

'No worries.'

'Okay, come on everyone, back to work, break time is over,' Dixie said. Polly placed her cup in the bin and followed everyone out of the rec room, hopefully they would all have fun on Saturday.
