My New Doctor

Chapter 63

Rachel's POV
I woke up this morning and my ear was even worse than the night before. I got up and put my hoodie back on and headed downstairs. When I git there Harry and Sophie were already up and ready for work. "Morning rach" Sophie said and smiled
"Morning" I groaned back
"You sound happy this morning" Harry laughed
"Ecstatic" I remarked back sarcasm dripping from my voice
"I got you your prescription it's out the kitchen" he said "you've got to take the antibiotics three times a day so take one now and then put the ear drops in at about 2 o'clock everyday"
"Okay thanks" I said as I went to take the tablet.
"I'm leaving for work now so I'll see you later, give me a text if you need anything" he said putting his shoes on
"Okay see you later, bye" I shouted and they both said their goodbyes and left.
I decided that since I had some time to myself I would put on a film and chill on the sofa for the day so I grabbed the mean girls film because it was one of my favourite films, I mean who doesn't love it, I put the film in and got comfortable and the next thing I know I'm out cold.
I was woken up at 2 o'clock due to a knock on the door. I got up and answered the door to find George stood there with a bunch on flowers in once hand and a McDonald's bag in the other "how you feeling?" He asked as he walked in. "Crappy" I answered putting the flowers in a vase with water. "You look it, no offence" he laughed and u just laughed with him. "Oh I almost forgot I have to put these in" I said grabbing the ear drops Harry got me. I was stood with a confused look on my face as I tried to figure out the easiest way of putting them in "here let me help you" George said taking them from me "I can do it" I said taking them back.
"Rach I know you don't want me to be your doctor but I just want to help, anyone could help you with this it just so happens in here so let me do it" he said
"Fine" I said handing them over to him, he turned my head so he could put the drops in, I'm not a massive fan of the feeling of ear drops but it's not as bad as the pain so I guess it'll do.
George gave me my drops back and I set them back in the same place so I wouldn't forget where they were and headed back for the sofa.
George had to leave for work soon so we decided to just sit and chill until he left. We put some music on and just talked about the most random stuff ever, he asked what my favourite animal is and my least favourite colour. We were just laughing and joking when my phone went off, the screen read "withheld" so I was a bit skeptical but answered it anyway. "Hello?"
"Is this Rachel?"
"Yes it is, who's this?" I asked confused as I didn't recognise the voice
"This is your worst nightmare, remember me hunny" the voice said and hung up.
I turned to George and I was a bit worried as well as confused. "Who's that?" He asked
"I don't know they said it was my worst nightmare?"
"Did you recognise the voice at all?" He asked
"No it was just a male voice"
"Why would someone say that? Have you fallen out with anyone lately?"
"Not that I know of, I've never really had a problem with anyone"
"I think you should come to work with me today, Harry's there too and I'm sure he wouldn't want you to stay o your own now"
Harry would be home 4 hours after George left so I had to go with him because I was a little freaked out by the phone call I just didn't want to let George know that.
"Okay I'll go get changed and I'll come with you, can you phone Harry and let him know please?" I asked
"Yeah of course I will"

George's POV
Rachel headed upstairs and I phoned Harry straight away
"Hello?" He answered
"Harry it's George, I'm bring Rachel in with me today, she had a weird phone call and we thought it best that she doesn't stay on her own, we will explain better when we get there" o said
"Okay, is she okay though?"
"Yeah she seems fine but I know she's a little freaked out underneath"
"Okay see you soon" I said and ended the call.
2 minutes later Rachel came back down the stairs wearing joggers and a hoodie, I swear she's got so many of them she wears a different one everyday.
Rachel's POV
I got my shoes on and grabbed my keys, phone and antibiotics shoved them in my pocket and headed for the car with George. The whole way to the hospital I sat quietly still trying to wrap my head around what's going on, I just don't know who it could be. It didn't take long to get there and as soon as we got there I headed straight for the break room and set myself up on the sofa where I will be spending the next few hours. George got changed into his scrubs and then headed out to start his shift. Not even 5 minutes later Harry came into the break room, "hello pumpkin" he said and sat next to me "hi haz" I sighed
"I spoke to George and he told me what's going on, try not to worry for now it could just be a silly joke" he said pulling me in for a hug
"I know, it's just freaked me out a little not knowing who it is"
"I know princess, we will get through this don't you worry, I can't stay but come find me if you need me" Harry said and I agreed before settling back down. I was watching something on the tv and just drifted off to sleep.
I woke up when I heard the break room door shut but there was no one here so they must have left. I grabbed my phone to find is only been in the hospital an hour so I wasn't asleep long. Just as I was scrolling through my Facebook a message came through from a number I didn't have saved, I opened the message to find a picture of me asleep on the break room sofa. I started to get really freaked out and ran out of the break room heading anywhere that either Harry or George could be. I didn't realise I was in such a state until I was stopped by Louis, Harry's friend "hey Rachel isn't it?" He said and I nodded "everything okay?" He asked
"I need to find Harry" I said and tried to walk off but he grabbed my arm and stopped me
"You need to take a breath a second love, you in an awful panic, Harry's just finishing with a patient I'll page him and tell him to come her just sit down and breathe for me" he said and turned to page Harry but I couldn't I had to find him so before he could even turn back to me I was gone. I headed for the cubicles to find Harry but I found Sophie first "soph where Harry?" I said in even more of a panic but before she could reply I saw him come around the corner and ran to him, I don't think he even seen me before I ran straight into his arms. "Wow rach what's up?" He asked confused and Sophie gave him a confused look. I had very quickly turned into a blubbering mess, I could barely breathe and I just couldn't answer him. Louis then came towards us "everything okay?" He asked
"I don't know she won't talk" Harry said
"She wouldn't tell me when I saw her earlier, I was about to page you to tell you we were in reception and she was in a bit of a panic"
Harry tried to pull away from me a bit to see my face but I just couldn't let go. "Rach your starting to really worry me now love, I need you to talk to me" he said and I was finding it harder and harder to breathe "right soph is there a room free anywhere?"
"Yeah come with me" she said and Harry picked me up and followed Sophie with Louis coming along as well. When we got in the room Harry put me down in the bed but didn't move away from me so I was sat still clinging to him for dear life. "Will you go get George please soph?" Harry asked and Sophie happily complied "rach I need you to calm down, your going to pass out if you don't breathe slower" Harry said and Louis passed him an oxygen mask and he put it on my face. "I mean it now rach, I don't know what's got you in to this state but I can't do anything to help with you in this state" he said and I knew he was right but I just couldn't help it, my hands were shaking and I felt physically ill, I reached into my pocket for my phone and before handing it to Harry I unlocked it to notice the picture had been followed by a text reading 'look at sleeping beauty at the hospital, what's wrong scared to be alone? ;)'. I froze and the phone just fel out of my hand, Harry quickly picked it up and scanned over the screening now learning what it was that I was in a state over. At that very moment George walked in and took in the scene unfolding. He came straight over to me and embraced me into a hug while Harry showed Rachel the messages. "Rachel, you need to breathe, I am rugby here and so is Harry so you need to start to calm down for me" George said in a very gentle voice. Harry then came over and showed George the phone. "Rach don't worry I'm going to get the police here, just to be sure your not in any danger" Harry said. I nodded but started to feel very dizzy and began to sway, Harry noticed and helped my to lay down on the bed. He turned the amount of oxygen going to my mask up to a higher level. I could feel myself getting weaker and I knew I had to calm down so I tried my very best to breathe slower and eventually I felt relief wash over me as I got my breathing back to normal. "I think you should stay here for a bit rach with the mask on, I'm going to go phone the police and then wait for them by reception." Harry said.
"I've got to just finish up with a patient and I'll be back" George said leaving me with Sophie and Louis.
"How you feeling now?" Sophie asked
"Better" I sighed
"Do you feel unwell at all?" She asked
"I don't feel great, my ear still hurts and I've got a really bad headache but other than that I think I'm okay" I said and Louis came over and put his hand on my forehead.
"Your quite warm, what's wrong with your ear?" He asked sweetly
"Ear infection" I said
"That could be why your so warm, are you sure everything else is okay?" He said and he seemed genuinely concerned
"I feel really weak and my chest is a bit sore but I'm feeling better" I said trying to convince them both, I wasn't lying but I did feel pretty crappy.
"Let me just check you over real quick then?" He said and I immediately shook my head no "you know you trust me love I've examined you before, I didn't hurt you then did I?" He asked and I shook my head no once again "and I won't this time, Sophie is here as well, I just want to make sure your okay" he said so I finally gave in and nodded to which he smiled and put his stethoscope in his ears and the other part to my chest "just breathe" he said and I tried my best to breathe normal. "Heart and lungs sound good so your probably just aching from overworking" he said as he grabbed his penlight "look straight at my nose for me" he said and I once again did as he said not wanting a fuss to be made "and follow my finger" he said and moved his finger around, "okay so just open your mouth for me and I'll have a quick look" he said and he pushed my tongue down with a lollipop stick thing and checked my throat. "Everything seems fine but if you start to feel any worse or even just a bit different and your unsure let one of us know" he said and I nodded. His pager went off so he left bidding to come back and see me later.
I realised that through all this I've forgotten to take my antibiotics so o told Sophie and she said she would go get me some water to take it with.
A few seconds after she left the door opened again and I said "that was quick soph" before turning my head and realising it wasn't Sophie. I instantly recognised who it was as the man who was supposed to be in prison for raping me but here he was stood two feet away from me. I didn't know what to do, I couldn't scream and I couldn't move to run I was physically frozen.
Here is an extra long chapter to make up for my lack of updating. Hope you all enjoy.
