Connie Beauchamp's private life

by mimimealing

Connie and Zoe have been work enemies for a few months now. It never really clicked between them. the rest of the ED think she's a great doctor but not such a great person. But when daughter Grace is brought into the ED, Connie needs all the support she can get. So Dr Cal steps up, but does this support turn into a relationship? UPDATE: 22 Now up :)

21. Chapter 21

It's a month since Grace has been home and she's hopping around again just like nothing had happened. She had her appointment last week to get good news from her doctor and doesn't have to go back for another 6 months now.

'Grace! Hurry Up! You'll be late!' Connie shouted up her rather large staircase.

'Just Coming!' Grace ran down the stairs with her school bag and her immaculately turned out uniform.
Cal followed down the stairs with her 2 suitcases.

'Are you sure you're ready to go back sweetie?' Connie kissed her on the head

'Ready and raring to go! Don't worry Mummy, they'll look after me!' Grace hugged her mum back

Connie smiled 'I love you, Come on in the car!'

Connie and Grace made their way out to the car and sat waiting as Cal put her cases in the boot.

'School here we come!' Grace shouted

'I think she's excited' Cal said quieter to Connie.

Connie laughed back 'anyone would think she wants to get away from us!'

They drove to Grace's school and they got out the car.

Grace ran off in front of them as her head teacher came out to greet them, Grace gave her a big hug.

'Mrs Beauchamp, how lovely to see you looking so sprite and well' She then looked at Cal 'and you're?'

'Cal, Cal Knight' he shook her hand

Connie butted in 'Yes we're engaged, we'll be getting married early next summer'

'Congratualtions! Come on little Grace let's get your bags into your room'

The 4 of them made their way to Grace's dorm that she shares with her 3 best friends Molly, Eleanor and Harriette.

'Grace!' The girls ran up to her as she walked into their room.

'I've missed you Gracie!' Harriette gave her a hug

'I've missed you too Hattie!' Grace hugged her back

Cal placed her suitcases down by her bed.

'Right girls off to chapel!'

Grace said goodbye to Connie and Cal and ran ff smiling with the other girls.

'We'll take good care of her, I promise'

'Thank You' Connie smiled and Cal shook her hand

'Bye, see you at half term' Connie and Cal made their way back to the car.

'She's grown up since she was ill' Connie looked up

'It's better than her not wanting you to go and her being miserable' Cal put his hand in hers

Connie nodded 'that way she can look forward to coming home again'

'Lets get to work Mrs B' Cal drove off still holding Connie's hand
