DISCLAIMER: I only own this story. Also the nurse.
Kara strode through the corridors of the large hospital, getting increasingly frustrated at the lack of proper directions that the nurse at the front desk gave her. Finally finding the floor that Skye was settled on, she wound her way along the aisles, peeping through every room window to spot Skye and Grant. When she did find them, or more accurately, Grant's back, she waited outside.
Smiling to herself, she vaguely noted the nurse who had come to stand next to her, also gazing in on the couple.
"What are those?" the nurse asked politely.
"Sorry?" Kara looked at her, surprise and confusion the two main features on her face.
"The papers you're holding. What are they?" the nurse asked again, clarifying this time. She was merely speaking out of curiosity, but her tone was merely conversational. Kara glanced down at the papers she was clutching to her chest.
"Oh." She laughed a little, covering up her annoyance. What business is it of hers? "Family planning." She smiled slightly and turned back to watch her friends.
"You don't seem that excited." The nurse observed.
"It's not for me." Kara nodded towards the couple in the room.
"Oh!" the nurse exclaimed, delighted. "And I assume you're going to be godmother?"
Kara smiled genuinely this time, her lips parting to form a grin. "I hope so." To be honest, that would be pretty cool! "I never got your name?" she looked back at the nurse, the smile still in place.
"Evelyn." The nurse stretched out her hand.
"Kara." She met the outstretched hand and shook it. The nurse released her hand before walking through the door. What is she doing? Kara followed and moved to stand beside Grant, sharing a comforting smile with him and Skye as the nurse faced them across the bed.
"Good afternoon, Mary. My name is Evelyn, and I'm here to prep you for your surgery." Evelyn smiled warmly at Skye as she worked to get the bed detached from its ties to the wall.
"That hour and a half went by fast." Skye muttered. Both Grant and Kara laughed softly, Grant still holding onto Skye's hands with both of his own.
"And provided everything is okay in the surgery, you should be awake within the hour." Evelyn added, causing a huge smile to spread across Skye's face.
"Can Grant stay with me?" she asked hopefully.
"He can be there when you fall asleep and wake up." The nurse reassured her. "All ready to go now." Excuse me." Evelyn pushed the bed out from the wall and wheeled it out through the door, Grant and Kara trailing behind.
