Lyrek-“Hang more units of blood!” I yelled inside the operating room.I had just been about to close Andrew up, thinking that the surgery went smoothly. The moment I told everyone that we were out of the woods, his stats started bottoming out and there was way too much blood. Unless I could find the source of the bleeding, I didn’t know if I was going to be able to save him.I had felt confident up until this point, now I was blindly looking for what went wrong. There was so much blood that I couldn’t get a visual of what went wrong. I tried not to look at the machines because I knew I wasn’t going to like what I saw.“Damn it, get me more suction!” I yelled at the intern that was assisting.“There is too much blood.” The intern complained as he tried to get the blood out of my way.Using my tools, I wasn’t going to be able to find the bleeder. There was too much blood for me to see, which meant I was going to have to go in blind. Quickly passing my instruments to one of the scrub nu

Veronica-What was I supposed to do now? During the time I had been waiting for Andrew to get out of surgery, I had tried to think of anything but the outcome. Lily had distracted me by talking about Lyrek, which caused me to think about him instead.As time passed, I started to think about what had happened before Lyrek went into surgery. The more I thought about it, the more I started to regret my words. I should have told him how I felt beforehand.Even though at the time I still was unsure about my feelings, I should have at least told him what was going through my mind. Even if I couldn’t tell him that I was in love with him, perhaps he would have understood that it was complicated for me. All of this was just a big misunderstanding.I had no one to blame but myself. When Lily left to go back to work, I couldn’t stand waiting in the waiting room by myself. I alerted the staff to let Lyrek know where I was if he came out looking for me. Unable to wait in the waiting room, I chose

Lyrek-As much as I tried to fight it, I knew it was pointless. The instant I saw Veronica begin to break down, my legs developed a mind of their own. If it weren’t for the chaos that erupted, I would have made it into the room first.Thankfully, the doctor I had assigned to Andrew’s case was the first one in the room. I was torn between helping with Andrew and helping Lily with Veronica. Being that there was plenty of staff to help, I decided to assist Lily.Regardless of how upset I was at Veronica; I also couldn’t bring myself to stand back and let her watch her brother die if that was the outcome. Stepping behind her, I wrapped my arms around her, pinning her shoulders to her side. Lily released Veronica and went to help the other nurses.She knew Andrew better than any other medical professional in the room, which I hoped would be beneficial. With Veronica in my arms, I dragged her out of the room. She kept fighting me the entire way, but I didn’t loosen my hold on her.When I ma

Veronica-It has been six hours since Andrew has been stable, yet there weren’t any signs of him waking up. Lily had left already, which left me alone to wait. Lyrek has come and gone a few times, only saying that they were still looking for a solution.The longer I waited, the more frustrated I became. At least I haven’t had a chance to think much about Lyrek, although I was glad, he was back to help with Andrew. He didn’t appear to want to talk to me right now, so I didn’t press him to do so.I figured if he didn’t want to talk, I wouldn’t make him, at least not right now. Just being able to see him was more than enough for me. For now, I was just going to focus on Andrew.Sitting next to him, I have been holding his hand. This wasn’t the first time I saw him with a tube down his through, but it was just as scary as the first time. Thinking back to when he was first diagnosed, I had been terrified that he was never going to wake up.When he had fallen ill, he had gone into a month-l

Lyrek-With Andrew now awake and being, things were looking better for him. It has been twelve hours since he woke up now, but Veronica still hasn’t slept. My concern was now for her, regardless of how much I tried not to worry about her.We broke up, or rather I broke up with her. I shouldn’t be concerning myself with what she does or doesn’t do. Yet, as I stood near the room to keep an eye on things, I couldn’t help but worry.Every time I left the hospital to go to the hotel I was staying at, I returned to see that it was obvious she hadn’t eaten or slept much since Andrew had come out of surgery. No matter how much I pushed her away, I was still in love with her. I couldn’t tell her to leave the hospital to get some rest since I didn’t really have the right.Seeing that Lily was returning, I decided to use her help. She might not like me much right now, but I doubted she would argue with me. Rushing to catch her down the hall, before she reached the room, I blocked her path.“What

Lyrek-“I take it you found out that I ended things with Veronica?” I asked, even though I already suspected the answer.“It is big news all over the hospital. Even reporters have been contacting me trying to find out if the rumors were true. Lucky for you I was able to put a stop to them from leaking anything. I have half a mind to take your inheritance and give it to her.”“I don’t care about the money. This has nothing to do with it. If you want to give it to her then I will agree to it.”The words barely left my lips before my grandfather grabbed his cane that was leaning against the bed and hit me in the arm with it. I won’t lie, it hurt like hell, but I didn’t show him any weakness. It may have something to do with the fact that I felt like I deserved to be hit.“You damn well know she won’t take the money and that is the problem. I already told you that I offered her money, but she refused. If you thought she only stayed with you because of what you were offering, then you are

Veronica-Since waking up, I have been trying to figure out how I got home and who made the food for me. I remember leaving the hospital and walking a little, but the rest was blank. I didn’t think it was Lily, considering I knew she was going to stay with Andrew.My thoughts went to Lyrek, except I quickly disregarded the possibility. Out of all the people it could have been, I doubted it was him. Maybe Rick had seen me walking and helped me home. That was the only other option I could think of.No matter how much I racked my brain, I couldn’t remember anything from the night before. Sighing, I cleaned up the few dishes I used to eat breakfast then went back to the bedroom to grab my phone off the charger. I slept longer than I wanted, but I was feeling more refreshed.Having slept for about ten hours, getting a shower and food in me, I almost felt like a completely new person. I checked my phone but didn’t see any messages or missed calls. Grabbing my keys, I headed out of the penth

Veronica-With Andrew now on the mend, he was moved out of the ICU and placed back in his room. Now that he wasn’t at risk for infection and he was steadily improving, things were looking better by the day. He had to stay another week in the ICU after having the ventilator removed, but that was only a small price to pay for everything we have endured thus far.The only downside to being back on the pediatric floor was that I wouldn’t be able to see Lyrek as often. He was avoiding me from what I could tell. When he came to check on Andrew, he kept the visit short and didn’t talk about anything other than Andrew’s recovery.I had wanted to give it more time until I told Andrew that we broke up, but my hand was forced when Lyrek acted as if I wasn’t anything more than a family member of a patient. At least the relationship between Andrew and Lyrek seemed to be okay. I had caught them playing a game together one day after returning from taking a shower at home.As soon as Lyrek realized I
