Tigsey: Thank you for the review. Here is the chapter where Cal finds out about his brothers affair with Alicia.
Sorry it's been a while, I started this the night before Christmas Eve, wasn't happy and then decided to write this again.
The Secret Life Of Casualty.
Chapter 253.
Ethan and Alicia were enjoying keeping their relationship a secret as Ethan knew it would hurt Cal if he found out about them, he had to be the one to break it to him. He knew he wouldn't take it well. The couple had arranged to meet at Ethan's flat, tomorrow night.
Tomorrow night came round and Alicia got herself dolled up as she got ready to head to Ethan's flat. Over at the flat, Ethan was getting ready.
Zoe had asked Cal to stay for a few hours to help cover, but as the patients started to leave or be transferred to different wards, Zoe told Cal to go home. He headed in to the staff room, to get his stuff out of his locker. He shrugged on his coat and headed out in two the corridor, signing out and whistling to himself.
Cal noticed the door to the flat was open. Were they being burgled? He didn't know. He took a deep breath and walked in, looking in the living room and finding it empty, he looked in the kitchen and also finding it empty, he walked down the hallway, pausing outside of Ethan's room, he reaches out and pushes down on the handle.
"Wait" Ethan called out as he heard rattling.
But Cal walked in and he couldn't believe what he was seeing.
His girlfriend is in bed. With his brother.
"What the hell?" Cal spat.
"Cal" Ethan starts as he notices his brother. "It's not what-"
"I would never betray you Ethan, " Cal interrupted.
Ethan thought back briefly to when he had kept him in the dark over Emile being their real mum, but decided to let that go, as he knew Cal was hurt.
Beside him, Alicia was getting up and clutching her clothes to her. She turned by the door and spoke to Cal. "He told me he loved me. " She took a breath. "And I love him. " She looked at Cal and then glanced at Ethan, before leaving the flat.
Cal lifted his fist and for one moment, Ethan thought that Cal might hit him and he would let him.
That night ended in a long talk between the two brothers.
The next day at work, Cal and Alicia are working on a RESUS case, Cal knew that he had to be professional.
"Can you order a head CT Dr. Monroe?"
"Sure Dr. Knight. " Alicia went to the phone.
Once the patient was settled, Alicia and Cal headed to the staff room.
Cal had dumped Alicia and had warned Ethan, that if he continued to date her, he would never speak to him again, Ethan realised that he didn't want to lose his brother. He walked out to the Nurses Station where Alicia was talking to Louise, and asked for a word, Alicia agreed and followed him in to the staff room.
"Ethan, what's wrong?" Alicia asks.
"I can't see you anymore," Ethan says, hating the fact that he was hurting her.
Alicia's face had a hurt look on it and she grips his hand.
Cal walked up to the bar and ordered himself a larger and Ethan an orange juice as the door to the pub opened, and Alicia and Jez walked in, Jez's arm was around her shoulder and she was laughing at one of his bad jokes.
Out of the corner of his eye, Cal saw Ethan tense as he noticed the two work colleagues. He accepted their drinks and took them over to the table.
"Thanks Cal "
Taking a sip of his drink, Ethan hears Alicia laugh loudly at another one of Jez's jokes.
"Just ignore them, " Cal says as he watches Ethan sigh. He is still his little brother whatever has happened between them.
"I will, " Ethan says as he and Cal get ready to leave and head home.
