(Guest) Pippa: That is your opinion that my stuff is boring, nobody is forcing you too read it and I don't read Hollyoaks fiction much.
Guest: I'm sorry you thought it was all wrong, but I did research. I find research is the most important thing in a story if you don't know anything about a topic you are writing about.
Guest: Thank you for the review. I can indeed do a chapter where Cal falls down the stairs. I liked the Cal and Taylor pairing.
LindaAndrewsfan: Thank you for the review. I know if Ethan is successful, he'll have to quit his job.
The character in this chapter is my own character. Those of you who know me, know I'm fond of Hannah and I haven't used her in a while.
Was written quite quickly.
Hannah: 12. (I know she is a bit older than that in my other stories, but I thought aging her lower would suit)
The Secret Life Of Casualty.
Chapter 188.
A couple of weeks later, Ethan got the call he had been waiting for. He had been successful in fostering.
"Well?" Cal asked.
Ethan smiled at Cal.
"I was accepted "
"Well done, mate " Cal grinned, slinging an arm around him.
Ethan went to see his new "daughter" after work one night.
"This is Hannah, she's 15, she was abused by her parents." Jenny, the social worker, told Ethan.
Hannah was of slim build, she had blonde hair and brown eyes. "Hi" She whispered nervously.
"Hi" Ethan replied.
Hannah said goodbye to her care friends and got in to the car, she put her seatbelt on as Ethan pulled away.
Ethan unlocked the door and allowed Hannah to walk in before him. She stood in the hallway, looking around. There were pictures of Emile and Matilda, on the walls.
"Make yourself at home " Ethan smiled.
Hannah walked in to the living room, she saw two white sofas, a coffee table and a TV was secured to the wall.
Cal walked up the stairs and knocked on the door.
"Go away " Hannah said, burying her face in the pillows.
Cal walked in.
"I know it's hard being at a new place, " He said sympathetically.
Hannah sat up and looked at him. "How do you know?"
"Because Ethan and I were adopted " He replied, quietly.
"Why?"
"My mum couldn't cope with us because she had Huntingdon's disease "
"Oh. "
"Yeah " Cal grinned and stood up, leaving the room.
Ethan went in to work, the next day, it was his last shift as a doctor and unknown to him, the team had thrown him a "Farewell Ethan Party"
Robyn threw her arms around him as Ethan squirmed,
"I'm going to miss you, Ethan " said Robyn.
Ethan blushed.
Ethan went to collect his daughter from school, he had managed to enrol her in "Holby High "
"How was your day?" Ethan asked, standing in the kitchen.
"It was good, thanks, I made friends with a girl called Amelia Harrison, her mum is a nurse. "
Ethan nodded. "I know "
Cal got Ethan a part - time at St. James and he only worked mornings and was home when Hannah was home from school.
On Saturday, Ethan took Hannah shopping to buy her some new things.
Ethan brought a bed, mattress, wardrobe, and a duvet and give Hannah some money to buy new
Cal built some shelves and Hannah put her DVD's and CD's on them.
"Thanks " Hannah smiled.
"Welcome "
Cal went down stairs and sat on one of the couches,
"How is she?"
Cal nodded. "It's going to take time for her to settle in "
Ethan nodded. "Of course "
Hannah come down the stairs,
"Thank you " She sat on in the armchair and looked at them.
"What for?" Ethan asked.
"For fostering me"
"Everyone deserves a second chance, " Cal said quietly, remembering all the second chances Ethan had given him.
Hannah went up to bed and Ethan opened his laptop, checking Facebook and then catching up with Lily on the phone.
