Ch 29: I Can Do It For You

Abi's POV~

   I put Emma on Laf's horse and I walk the horse.

"Emma where were you stabbed? Maybe the doctors won't know and tell Washington that your a girl!" I say as I shook my hands to show that she can relax, but she still had a stern look on her face. Worry. Written all over.

"I was stabbed here." She said as she circled her hands to show that she was stabbed in the——chest. I cringed as yep, she's going to be found out. By Scots! I have an idea! I could be the nurse! I throw one of her arms over my shoulder so she could somewhat walk to the medical tent. I check to see if the coast was clear and I laid her on a cot. Then I saw nurse Wilma. (Ah... She's back!)

"Abi! What a surprise to see you here! How's your arm? And how is Lafayette?" I cringe as I was close to being caught.

"I know! It's nice seeing you! I hadn't seen you since I caught a bullet in my arm! And Lafayette is doing fine!" I say with a sickly cheery voice to cover up the stern sound in my voice. She then pulled my jacket sleeve and whispered.

"Are you and Lafayette...Y'know, courting?" I jump a bit as I was shocked she asked me that question. So forward."

   "Yeah, just recently actually." I saw as I could obviously tell a whole new shade invaded my face. Then the question I dreaded her to ask me.

"What are you doing here?" I stutter a bit until Laf, flamboyantly I should state swaggered in the medic tent flipping the drape so dramatically and almost yelled.

"WHERE'S EMMANUEL?!?" I gesture him to keep quiet but that didn't work because it caught Wilma's attention.

   "Oh, Lafayette! How have you been! I heard you guys are courting!" She said and Laf had the most confused look on his.

"Um, oui. Yes we ar' courting." She giggles. Jeez, does she find entertainment when Laf and I blush? Then Laf wouldn't shut his mouth.

   "So how is Em-" I kick him in the shin, and he finally takes a hint.

   "What was that sweetheart? Did you say Emmanuel?" I cringe as I might as well tell her the truth.

   "Sorry to say this so late but, Lafayette and I's friend, Emmanuel got stabbed by a fellow soldier. And we came here for some medical help for her-HIM." I say as I corrected myself from calling Emma a she.

   "Okay, then maybe I can take a look at him-"

   "NO!" I say as I push Wilma away from the cot that Emma was at. "I can do it, Y'know I'm a field nurse, and maybe I can clean his wounds, while maybe- Lafayette takes you to lunch. Right Lafayette?" I say as Laf was shocked I just sold him out to buy some time for me.

   "Of course I'd go with a handsome gentleman like Lafayette! I'll be back by one then!" She puts her arm around Lafayette's. I grit me teeth, I regret selling him out like this. I go to Emma.

   "Hey, so I convince these nurses that I could take care of you." She had a glassy look in her eye. Like she was in the twilight zone.

   "Emma! Emma!" I repeat myself like a broken record and snap to get her attention.

   "Mom, I'm not sorry..." She barely breathes out. Her eyes were half way to closing. I shake the girl.

   "I swear to God, Emma! If you die I'll resurrect you and kill you myself! You're not going to die! You hear me?!?" I ripe her uniform and I see the stab. Very close to her heart. I mentally curse, to it could've been to the heart. God d*** Burr. I hope he rots in hell with Satan laughing at his sad, pathetic life.
