Ambulance’s always mean trouble. Full stop. (Mi's side)

Ambulance’s always mean trouble. Full stop.

I enjoyed my time out. The fresh air made me see things again and out there I realised I was still considered halfway human. I in fact did not wear a neon sign around my neck that screamed hospital inpatient and Emmet did not wear one advertising that fact that he was my nurse. By now we both new that that wasn’t strictly true anyway. Esmee loved me passionately and Emmet loved her more then words could say. He could never hate something she loved so much. For me, I had a sister again. She was not Arabella and nether would I want her to be but she was Esmee and that was enough.

“So what are you going to be doing for the rest of the afternoon?” Emmet asked drumming his fingers against the steering weal of his car as he turned around the corner into Apple gat road and back towards the unit. It didn’t fill me with dread so much anymore, and even though the gates were still fifteen foot high they felt smaller after all I was counting down the days now they kept telling me. Everyone hoping for a January discharge. My story was ending soon.

“I’m going to draw. A lot. Those things I got today are just stunning and I think I can finally get the eyes right now I have some colours to play with. Yours are the worse, I just can’t seam to get Jade to translate to gray and well Esmee’s are a mystery. I just don’t think there meant to be captured.”

“You’ve drawn me.” Emmet Chuckled tapping the number into the security gate while shielding it behind his hand. There would have been a time when I would have killed for that number. Even if I did no it now I wasn’t sure I would use it to runaway.

“Oh hell, that’s never a good sign,” Emmet moaned spotting the ambulance that was parked close to the front door of the unit obstructing the cars.

“No that’s shit,” I agreed. Someone was seriously ill, whether going in or going out.

“I was going tom spend some more time with you but I might have to cut and run OK. If there’s a new emergency admission the unit will be in madness again. Are you going to be OK on your own. Things were a bit hairy for a bit while we were out.”

“No, no I’m fine, I’ll just go to my room and draw or something. Do your job, don’t be worrying about me.”

“It’s my job to worry about you, besides there’s a bit more to it then that now as well. Come on lets get you inside. They might have got it all under control,” Emmet smiled slamming his door shut on his car and taking off at a march towards the front door making it almost impossible to keep up with him with out running. Through the front door the commotion inside could be heard. Apparently they did not have the situation under control.
