The Light In Your Eyes BiancaxAdore

Tears and Fears

It was a slow night at the hospital tonight, making the few that were working agitated and bored watching the clock tick by. One particular nurse was walking around stocking up the supplies in the almost barren emergency room. She was exhausted, having picked up another shift, after already working a twelve hour shift due to her wanting to pay to get a better place to live. If she was lucky, maybe a newer car than the one she was driving right now. As she heads to the last room, she glances up at the clock; 8:55. It was a measly five minutes before she could head home and rest. Looking into the last room and stocking it, she tiredly made her way to the nurses station, making sure that all her notes were documented before placing the charts back into the cart and seeing the next shifts crew walk in.

"Oh Aby, you look like absolute shit. Did you pull another 24 hour shift again?"

She lifted her head and rolled her eyes at the older woman, looking to be in her 50's, standing in front of her.

"I did Mary, but I'm fine. Kristian was staying at her aunt's house for the night and they needed someone. Dipshit called in again leaving things in a lurch. Yet again, Super Aby comes to the rescue."

Mary smiled and shook her head chuckling softly. She knew the person Abrianya was speaking of. She had just been hired in to help cover some of the overnight shifts, but she had no work ethic and constantly called in with some kind of excuse.She always helped out sometimes sacrificing her own well being. As a single mom, due to the father has never being in the picture, she was always struggling to make ends meet. Abrianya's sister was helping her out by watching her daughter, but Mary could tell the time away from her own child was taking a toll on the 32-year-old.

"You know you don't always have to pick those shifts up. You deserve some rest too. You don't have to be superwoman all the time. Why don't you head out. I know you've got your shit done. By the way, take this and go get you a good meal. Ramen noodles only take you so far through."

The woman had handed her a fifty dollar bill and refused to take it back. Abrianya's eyes flared with anger but the matronly woman just chuckled.

"I ain't no charity case Mary."

"Shut up and take it. Besides, I owed you for paying for that little bit of fudge I ordered from your daughter a couple months ago. Now shoo! Before I go get Barry and make him escort you out!"

Barry was Abrianya's former teacher and now colleague. He was the only one stubborn enough to get through the paramedic-RN's head. There were many times that Barry literally drug the young woman out kicking and screaming in protest. Barry looked up at the mention of his name, looking at Aby as he shook his head. She quickened her steps out the door. As she was grabbing her bag and clocking out. She sighed, before making her way out to the car it was daylight, Abrianya wasn't paying attention to what was going around her. The woman's mind was on autopilot. That was until she heard shouting and saw a figure running to her, when she was putting her things into her car.

"HELP! SOMEONE HELP ME!"

Grabbing her trauma bag out of her car, She ran to the sound of the voice. Her instincts kicking in,as adrenaline began coursing through her veins. Tiredness all but forgotten. She caught up to the person who was bloody, crying, and distraught. She knew this face, but she couldn't place it until the person spoke in hurried tones.

"Please! My friend was stabbed and she's bleeding out. I need your help!"

She stopped dead in her tracks, as she realized the person on the ground was the infamous Bianca Del Rio. She looked like she had put up a helluva fight with her attacker. Her hands were on a knife currently lodged into her abdomen. Abrianya looked up into the eyes of the one Adore Delano she saw the sad, scared look in her eyes. The two sharing a look before looking away.
