Hi all. The fanfiction page was down earlier so couldn't upload the chapter. Here we go!
Ethan stormed into the ED shortly after the social workers turned up at his and Cal's flat. He walked into cubicles to be approached by Robyn.
"Ethan?" Robyn looked at Ethan's angered expression.
"Where is she?!" Ethan almost shouted.
"Who?"
"Lily!" Ethan's breathing quickened.
"You need to calm down, Ethan." Robyn placed her hands on Ethan's shoulders. He was breathing angrily. He looked over Robyn and spotted Lily. He walked up to her.
"What the hell is wrong with you?!" Ethan got in Lily's face.
"What are you talking about?" Lily whimpered slightly.
"For God sake Lily, I know you called them!"
"Who?!" Lily shouted back at Ethan.
"Social Services! They received a call from someone saying that me and Cal were abusing Christian."
Everyone was listening.
"Oh and you assume it was me?!" Lily seemed offended.
"At the minute? Yes!"
"I can't believe you think that low of me!"
By this time, Connie walked up to the.
"Dr Hardy! My office, Now!" Connie screamed at Ethan. Ethan and Connie walked into her office, shutting the door. "Right Ethan, I will not tolerate staff shouting at staff. Is that clear?"
"Yes..." Ethan looked down.
"What has gotten into you?" Connie sighed.
"I had a visit from social services claiming that me and Cal have been abusing Christian." Ethan ran a hand through his hair.
"And you think Lily is the person who called them?" Connie raised an eyebrow.
"Yes, she wants to get back at me."
"Ethan, as stern as Lily is, I don't think she would do something like this. Think about it. You guys are or were close friends and you think her revenge for you rejecting her is making a serious false accusation. That would be risking suspension and you know how career motivated she is." Connie had a point. Is Ethan reading this all wrong? Without saying anything he walked out of Connie's office quickly. "Ethan!" Too late, he was gone. Ethan went to search for Lily whilst also getting different types of looks from everyone. He found Lily on the bench, he approached her.
"Lily, I need you to be honest with me: Did you call social services?" Ethan looked down at Lily.
"Give me one good reason why I would?" Lily looked up at Ethan.
"Because of last night."
"Ethan, I wouldn't turn a silly argument into a big, serious problem." Lily answered honestly. Ethan started to think about, she probably was right. He sighed heavily and slumped onto the bench.
"I'm sorry, Lily. I just don't want to lose Christian." Ethan panicked.
"You won't lose him. I'm sorry too." Lily grabbed Ethan's hand comfortingly.
"For what?" Ethan looked at Lily.
"For trying to partner up with you. I just want a successful five year plan, you know married and have a good job involving medicine? I just thought you were the right candidate."
Ethan started to realise. "That's why you asked everyone all those weird questions and that data you needed to review?" Lily nodded. Ethan was astonished "Wow." Lily smiled. Ethan finally realised. "I don't get it, you was the only one who was mad at me, who else would call social services?"
"I'm not sure Ethan, anyone related to Christian or knows him maybe?" Lily tried to help.
Ethan discovered who it actually could of been.
"Danny..."
Only really had time to make this chapter, next chapter will be released Thursday and I promise there will be a little bit, possibly a lot of drama :D
Lily was originally going to be the anonymous caller but I didn't want to ruin Ethan and Lily's friendship and plus I got stuck on where it could of led.
