When they got back to the familiarity of the ED, they were greeted by Rita and Charlie. "How's it going?" They asked. "Pretty good. I have to have another operation next month to remove the pins, but other than that everything is running smoothly. They said I can come back to work next week as long as I use the crutches to get about and take regular sit downs." Cal explained. "Well, I'm sure Lexi and Ethan will ensure that happens" Rita said smiling. "I don't doubt it. Ethan seems to miss having you around here" Charlie said. "But you didn't hear that from me!" He said slyly tapping the side of his nose. A curtain was pulled back and Ethan stepped through it adjusting his glasses. "Hey Lexi, Cal. What's going on?" He asked taking over the wheelchair and pushing it towards Jeff's memorial bench. "Nothing much, I get my pins removed in a month, and next week I can come back to work, but I still have to use crutches." Cal explained. "And take regular sit downs and breaks!" Lexi chastised. Cal chuckled at his little sisters maternal side. "Yeah, yeah" he rolled his eyes. Lexi slapped him on the arm. "Enough of that cheek, old man!" She giggled. "Old man? I'm 32! That's not old!" Cal argued. "Cal, I'm 26, Ethan's 29, you're practically ancient." Lexi retorted. "You're getting rickety in the bones." Ethan chimed in. "Oh, yeah, well someone's going to get it!" Cal roared. He shook his coke can and opened it. The fizzy liquid squirted all over Ethan and Lexi and they squealed with laughter. "You bloody so and so." Lexi threw a bag of crisps at her brother. He reached out and grabbed her waist and pulled her into the wheelchair where he tickled her until their sides split from laughing. They finished their lunch whilst catching up on all the gossip that Robyn had relayed to Ethan that morning. You could always count on Robyn for the latest rumours. She was like the ED's little sister, who can't keep a secret no matter what. Ethan walked them back into the ED and they managed to catch up with a couple of their colleagues. A medium height, sandy haired man came over to the trio. "Hi, I'm Ryan, I haven't seen you around here before." The man introduced himself. "Hi, I'm Lexi, this is my eldest brother Dr Caleb Knight and my other older brother, Dr Ethan Hardy. It's nice to meet you, I'm a nurse here." She mentioned. "Right, I haven't seen you around." Ryan admitted. "Yeah, I'm new, technically, I just moved back to the area so my brothers can help me with my son, it's hard to be a single mum, and this fellow here got in a car accident so add TEMPORARY care taker to my CV" she said with emphasis. "Wow, single mum. That must be hard work. How old is your son? What's his name?" Ryan seemed genuinely interested. "His name is Daniel Ethan Knight and he is two. He's at play group today." She smiled at the man. She couldn't help but notice that he was much more muscular than his younger brother. In fact he was broader than Cal. He was tall enough that when she stood in front of him, she reached his chin. "That's such a cool name. We should get together some time. Maybe for a drink or something" Ryan commented. "Sure, how about Friday? 8 o'clock?" Lexi suggested. "Perfect." Ryan replied with a flash of the Walker smile and left the trio alone. "Lexi!" Cal groaned. "Now we have to have the brotherly chat." He looked disappointed but his eyes gave away his secret joy at his sister having found a new friend. "Let's go home, we have to pick up my favourite nephew en route, we have a box set to watch!" Caleb announced to his siblings. "See you later Ethan" Lexi giggled as she rolled her eyes at Cal. "See you later." He responded kissing her cheek before turning back to his work. "Later Nibbles!" Cal shouted as they left. Ethan's face burned red with embarrassment at the mention of his nickname.
