(Melissa's engagement ring )
Monday morning Leanne was busy standing at the nurses station rifling through paper work when In walked Melissa, Leanne's sister.
" Hey Lea, I don't suppose you are free for lunch ?" Melissa said greeting her sister with a warm smile.
" Melissa?? ! what are you doing here?...I'm sorry of course" Leanna said as cheerfully as she could, tossing her patients records in the done pile.
" actually why don't you go a head and I will be there in the minute, I just I need to let someone know I'm going for lunch" Melissa nodded " oh I'm sorry if now isn't a good time I can see you another day?" Leanne shook her head " don't be silly I'll be just a second" Melissa walked through the double doors and outside towards the entrance to hospital.
"Who was that Hottie? She was hot you know what I mean" Leanne shook her head at Mario " that hottie as you put it was none of your business" Leanne said to Mario who walked away " okay fair enough, you don't want me to intrude " but however someone else was rather interested by Leanne's mystery visitor.
" Ah Neal, I'm out for lunch but, page me if anything changes okay?" Neal nodded " sure, Everything alright Leanne, I couldn't help notice that you had a visitor today and wanted to make sure your okay seeing as your going out for lunch , which isn't normal" Leanne sighed " what is it with this place? You can't get one visitor or going out for lunch without having to be quizzed over it" Leanne snapped at Neal and stormed off " I'm sorry I didn't mean...." Neal sighed with frustration he was just concerned.
Leanne headed to her locker where she put on her angels memorial zip up hoodie and put it on over her scrubs and headed out towards the hospital entrance.
" so what is it you want to tell me? Is everything okay? Is mom okay? What about dad? Nick okay?" Leanne began to panic.
" woah calm down okay, nothing is wrong with Nick and mom and dad are fine.I have huge news" Melissa said not being able to contain her excitement.
" Wait aren't we going out for lunch? and you can tell me the great news then " Melissa chuckled " oh yeah I guess I got carried away"
The drive to the cafe was a quiet one as Melissa pulled into a Empty space.
Once in side they were seated in the middle of the rather popular cafe where they both glanced over the menu.
"It's busy in here today" Melissa said glancing round at the people as they talked, laughed as they sipped their coffees or nibbling on large slices of cakes.
" so what is the big news that you have to tell me" Leanne said bringing Melissa back to reality, Leanne quickly glancing at Melissa then back at her menu.
" we'll as you know me and Greg have been dating for a while now" Leanne nodded and so Melissa carried on " he and I have never really spoke about marriage" Leanne nodded once again not really listening but waited for Melissa to carry on.
Melissa coughed placing her left hand over her mouth hoping Leanne would see what she was trying to show off.
" ermm Melissa what the hell is that rock on your finger" Leanne said pointing to the large diamond engagement ring glistening on her left hand.
" He did it Lea he finally asked me last night" Melissa said squealing.
Leanne screamed loudly making others in the cafe turn their heads in bewilderment "Oh I'm sorry everyone... You see this is my sister and best friend and she has been dating a guy for over 5 years and he's finally asked her to marry him " other women in the cafe clapped and cheered.
Melissa could feel her cheeks burn a slight shade of Crimson "Let's see the ring" Leanne couldn't help but feel a pang of jealousy over Melissa's engagement.
Melissa delicately held her hand in front of Leanne's "oh it's gorgeous Melissa, I am so happy for you" Leanne forced a bright smile as looked at the huge diamond but, she couldn't help but feel a certain green eyed monster dwell up inside her as she saw how happy her sister and best friend was.
As Leanne and Melissa hugged goodbye outside the hospital and Leanne headed back into the hospital she walked along the corridor in a daze, making her way to the locker room she took of her hoodie and placed it back into her locker and headed back out on to the floor.
" Daddy back in the house " momma said seeing his best friend arrive but she looked rather glum after having her lunch.
" I'm not really in the mood momma" Leanne gave a weak smile.
" you can tell momma you know that right?" Leanne nodded " thanks momma but, I'm fine" Jesse knew that wasn't true but he left it alone.
Leanne continued her shift which was blur a stressful surreal blur, everyone noticed Leanne was rather funny mood today after coming back after her lunch but, no one dared mention it.
Neal noticed his work colleague was rather off , he would watch as she treated her patients but her heart or head really wasn't in it.
Leanne walked over to the nurses station to finish of the discharge paper work " look I'm sorry about earlier, I know you hate people knowing anything about you but, are you okay?" Neal asked as softly as he could. Leanne put her pen down on the desk.
"I've just had a shitty day, that's all and your right I don't like it" Leanne snapped shut the file, picked up her Pen and walked off, Neal watched as Leanne walked away.
"I would just leave her to her own devices at the moment, I know your concerned" jesse said sensing Neal's concern.
Neal shrugged " you know her best" Jesse placed a hand on Neal's shoulder before he walked off.
