The Secret Life Of Casualty.

Chapter 414.

Ruby hated watching Iain being hooked up to the ventilator but she knew it was necessary for him to breath. Suddenly, Connie come to stand next to her.

"We are taking him off" She told Ruby.

Ruby nodded, as Gem, shooting Ruby a dirty look, joined them.

Gem and Ruby both held their breath as Connie took away the machine that Iain had relied on. A small breath from Iain filled both Ruby and Gem with hope as they watched him open his eyes.

Gem was expecting her name to be the first thing Iain said, but he shocked her by whispering "Ruby?"

Gem shot Ruby another look.

"I'm here, Iain" Ruby said, Iain curled his fingers around hers. Gem couldn't stand it and walked out of the room.

"Iain, take it easy" Said Connie, walking out of the room. Ruby helped Iain sit in to a comfortable position, but she didn't miss him hissing in pain.

She took him back to her house as she knew it wouldn't be wise to let him be on his own.

"Iain, would you like to go out?" asked Ruby as they sat in her living room, drinking coffee.

"Er," Iain stared at Ruby, his mind going back to when he'd tried to kiss her and she had knocked him back, he seen her as a younger sister.

'I don't know" Said Iain, raking a hand through his hair.

Ruby couldn't lie, but she was dissapointed that Iain turned her down. He had been through a lot.

When at work the next day, Ruby didn't see Iain, but was surprised when her phone buzzed with a text from Iain. The four simple words read: "I'd like that Ruby"

After finishing her shift, Ruby headed home and headed for the shower, thankful that the house was empty for a change, that Gem had decided to stay at Rash's house. After the shower, Ruby had to decide what to wear. It was too cold for a dress,

Iain was also in his house, getting ready. He'd gone for a black shirt and jeans.

Iain had been the first to arrive at where they were meeting.

"You look nice" said Iain, noticing Ruby in a pair of jeans.

She slowly walked over to him. "Thanks" she said.

"Drink?" Iain asked.

Ruby nodded. "White wine"

Iain headed for the bar. When he come back with her drink, they laughed and chatted the night away, avoiding Iain's sucide attempt.

Iain kissed her on the lip, as he realised for the first time since Sam's death, he was happy. They decided to keep their relatinship a secret for now.


Thanks for reading. I'm not really confident on writing Iain and Ruby so I apologise if this is OC, as I think it is.
