Warriors heart

Thrown past

The two weeks have thrown pass and I only have the weekend left to spend it with everyone, I'm just about to shift my last shift hoping the young boy Andrew with the bullet wound will wake up today so I can say goodbye, being his nurse I have gotten close to his parents who barely leave his side and when they do it's either me or another family member watching on. I have enjoyed working at the hospital as doctor Steven has being teaching me a little more about injuries which I'm thankful for as every little helps especially in the army but the only think I'm lacking is the equipment as I only carry what I can. Meanwhile me and Caden have gotten a whole lot closer though our friendship and he's actually a really nice lad, I haven't told him I'm in the army and he hasn't spoke about him much but I don't mind as we all keep some of our life private. We have agreed on a date as well but I'm pretty sure this won't be our first as we have gone out a couple of times but never labelled it, this is the first time he has labelled it. It's going to be the hardest to say goodbye to him when I get deployed and I'm going to have to make something up. 

Making my rounds I come across Andrew room, they have taken him off the life support machine and they waiting for him to wake up which is what I'm waiting for. Walking pass I hear movement come from his room, I step inside Andrew room to find his eyes open

"Hey I'm nurse Laura, how you feeling. Don't touch your stomach" I say moving his hand away as I know every curious child like to touch but I don't need an infection 

"Where are my parents?" Is all he ask and I walk out the door looking for them both who happens to be walking back with coffee in there hands, I give them a smile

"Your sons awake and talking. He's asking for both of you" I say stepping aside letting his have a minute with his parents before I take his vitals and checking the wound. Once they finished I lift his top up looking at the wound

"The wound heeling perfect, I have to admit I have seen some worse bullet wounds in the army and yours is good, no infection" I say without thinking and all three look at me a little surprised by what I said 

"Army? I'm guessing your a first aider" Andrew says with his rusty voice, I give him a smile and pick up his glass of water letting him have a couple go slips and to refresh his throat 

"I'm trained in the medical field but I'm a sniper" I say filling his sheets and the faces on Andrew face say it all, telling by his face I can tell how excited about what I said 

"When you being deployed again" Mr. Higgins Andrew father asks with doctor Steven at the door listening to the conversation, I haven't told anyone apart from June when I'm leaving 

"This Monday, today's my last shift" I say and I look at doctor Steven who's looks disappointed that I didn't say anything and I get that a lot but it doesn't make it any easier to leave. 

Finishing up my last shift I head to see doctor Steven who just walked off after he found out about me leaving I really hope he doesn't say anything to anyone as I don't want anyone know I'm leaving again as I really hate goodbyes. Knocking on his door I hear a faint voice and I walk in 

"I'm thankful for everything you taught me and I'll definitely me using that, however I am sorry I never told you I'm leaving. Honestly I wasn't planning on telling anyone" I say as honestly is the best way to talk to someone, I know most people will hate me for leaving without a goodbye but I prefer people to enjoy seeing me, not thinking about me leaving. 

"It's been a pressure to teach you but I'm more surprised about you being a sniper. Don't worry I won't tell anyone but I guess this is goodbye" I nod my head but I shake my head as I know he throw a insult in that moment which I don't mind. I don't like the word goodbye, I like to say I'll see you soon as it's better. Walking out the hospital I'm ready to be deployed again with my favourite six idiots. 

Reaching my apartment I open my door throwing my bag on the sofa just wanting to grab a relaxing hot shower before I spend the weekend with the family. 

Caden: I'll pick you up at 7pm tonight 

Reading the text I completely forgot about the date that he had has planned, does that make me a bad person, surely not as I'm been busy. Rushing to the shower I have a quick one and looking though my wardrobe for a simple red dress that I kept for special occasion, I really hope he's not taking me anywhere fancy because I'm more of a simple girl who's happy with a movie. Finishing the touches to my hair I'm all ready, i wished he gave me more information then that single text.
