AdamPOV
It turns out that I have a broken wrist and leg. Tess had asked me what colour cast I wanted, and I responded with 'purple'. Kirsty's favourite colour. God, I hope Warren wouldn't notice. Well, if he does then it's entirely my fault.
Tess said that she'd finished, and took me back to cubicles. Where Kirsty was waiting, so was Warren.
"You alright? How's your arm?" I asked Kirsty, who seemed to be staring into space.
"Okay, but my arm's a little sore," she replied, her eyes now flickering between me and Warren.
"Warren, would you mind giving me and Adam some space?" she asked her husband, who was leaning against the wall, eavesdropping. "Warren?" she asked again.
"I heard you the first time! Ten minutes, that's it." He said, walking away but sitting on a chair just in eyesight.
"What's up?" I asked Kirsty, her eyes now focused on her husband, never shifting.
"Kirsty, you need to calm down, loosen up!" I told her. "Getting agitated isn't getting us anywhere."
"Well how do you expect my to be feeling? Overcome with joy?" she asked, the sarcasm ringing through her voice.
"Kirst," I began. "No one asked for this to happen."
She got up from her bed and sat down on the chair next to mine. She grabbed the pillow off her bed and placed it under her arm.
Leaning her head back and closing her eyes she said, "I need to get all this sorted. You saw what Warren said when I asked him to move away? You see the way he looks at us. When this whole 'hero' thing dies down... I'm gonna leave Warren..."
A nurse popped his head around the curtain.
"-You've both got visitors." He said, moving the curtain to reveal a beaming Jay, Lenny and Polly.
"Hey, heroes!" Jay boomed, coming over to pat me on the back. He turned and hugged Kirsty.
KirstyPOV
"Hey, what're you doing here?" I asked Jay, Polly and Lenny.
"What? So now we can't come and thank the people who saved our lives?" Lenny joked, smiling.
"How are you?" Polly asked me.
"Only: a broken arm, a few minor burns and some cuts and bruises, but I'm okay. Adam got the worst though."
"Okay, give me all the details. What the hell happened in there?" Jay said, now looking worried.
I looked over at Adam and he nodded and mouthed, "I'll tell them."
"Right..." He began.
JayPOV
"Right," Adam started. "Me and Kirsty had just lost a patient, so we both went into the staffroom for a cuppa. We sat there for a while, but I heard an almost audiable ticking noise. I asked Big Mac whether he could tell us what it was. He said there was a bomb under the floorboards.
"Kirsty told Noel to call a lockdown and to get the fire brigade. But they were too busy and we had to call them using your walkie-talkie Polly." Adam said, nodding towards Polly.
She blushed. "I wondered where that'd got to."
"You saved our bloody lives!" Kirsty exclaimed.
"Hey, shut up! I wanna hear the rest!" I said, sounding a little too enthusiastic.
"Well, then the fire brigade came and I told them to get Kirsty out. They took her outside, so one of the firemen came in and helped me to take the bomb out. But, I dropped it. The explosion blew the staffroom to bits, but I heard Kirsty's voice. She told me to 'squeeze my hand if I was conscious.'"
He looked over at Kirsty who said, "It wasn't like that! I only..."
"It's alright, you were doing your job!" I said.
"We were holding hand for thirty seconds, max, and the ceiling collapsed on top of us." He continued.
"Were you alright?" Polly gasped. They turned to each other and shrugged.
"I managed to shift a few rocks off of me, but I saw that Kirsty was completely buried. I tried to shift a few rocks of her but I couldn't move my leg. Then the rescue team found us. I told them that Kirsty was buried. They helped me out, but it took them another five minutes to get her out. When they did, she was unconscious."
I gathered that he'd finished by the way his face drooped.
"Your ten minutes were up five minutes ago." A man said, suddenly appearing behind me.
"Jay, Lenny, Polly. This is my husband, Warren." Kirsty said, introducing us.
"If you wouldn't mind, I'd like a quick chat with my wife." He said, looking dead ahead at Adam. Warren pulled Kirsty up by the arm and took her next door. He swished the curtain shut.
A/N oohh, what will Warren do to Kirsty? Reveiw and I'll get the next chapter up a little quicker, sorry about the delay, but I was over loaded with homework... DennisDaMenacex
