I look at my clock and it was 5pm, I got up, took a shower, changed into my scrubs, grabbed my coffee cup and by that time it was 6. I hopped in my truck and drove to work. I walked in and put my bag in my locker, and walked to the entry. "Dr. Bisping. The new people need a doctor to follow today." Kenny said

"Ok." I said and shook the girls hand and not the boys, cause he touched the things they took out of people

"Bisping. they need someone out there. Chopper is ready." molly said

"Lets go." I said and went to grab my jacket.

"What do we have." I asked and the interns looked around

"We have the rest of people, but we couldn't get one girl out, and she was asking for you my name." the paramedic said, we walked over to the car. I looked in and it was on of my friends

"Gaby." I said

"You came."

"Its my job." I said and Paul handed me my stethoscope. I listened to her breathing

"Was anyone else with you." I asked her

"My mom and my sister." she said, I got up

"Where are the other people in the car." paramedic pointed to the ambulance

"Keep her talking for me, if anything changes, just slightly, tell me. You guys hear me." I said

"Yes mam." they both said, I ran over to her family

"Brooke." her mom said

"Hi guys, can you tell me what happened."

"We where driving back home and this car spun out in front of me and I slammed on my breaks but I hit the car. Gaby seatbelt got jammed and her face slammed forward then back." her mom said

"Is she going to be okay."

"I don't know, yet ."

"Brooke, her eyes are closing." Krista said, I ran over there

"We need to get her out, fast." I said

"Hey Gaby, keep your eyes open for me. Can you do that for me." I said and we got her out and flew her back.

"I need a MRI ready when I get there."

"Trauma  2."

"Thanks." I said

"Hey Gaby, not yet. Don't close your eyes." I said I checked her pulse

"Can we get there any faster."

"There's a storm."

"Try harder, she does not deserve to die this way." I said getting pretty loud. When we landed we pushed her in, and brought her to trauma 2. I took my jacket off, and grabbed the MRI.

"Hey Gaby, I'm just going to take an MRI quick. it wont hurt at all." I said and Kenny took the picture. We put an IV in and I looked at the picture. I checked her breathing and it was getting a little better. I put a mask on her and her family walked in.

"Right now, the machine is helping her breath and get her breathing back to where it should be. But." I said and Drew walked in 

"Drew, what."

"Her blood work is back." he said nervous, and handed me the I pad

"Is she ok."  Her mom asked, I looked at it and looked at Drew.

"Has Gaby complained of lower stomach pains, lately." I asked

"Yeah, but we thought she was just getting the cold or something."

"Hey Mariana, you are going to go with Dr. Drew and get blood work done. Its nothing bad, I just need to check something."

"What's wrong with Gaby, Brooke." Her mom asked

"I will tell you as soon as I know." I said, I walked over to Gaby and checked if there was any dark spots anywhere. Drew handed me Mariana's blood work back.

"Ok, so Gaby has hemochromatosis, which mean her body is taking to much iron in and her Liver is dying. We can go in and drawn some of the iron, but she will sometime need a liver transplant." I said

"Why did I have to take blood."

"I wanted to check that you don't have any of the early stages of it." I said and Gaby started to wake up. I took the mask off.

"How we feeling Gaby." I asked

"My stomach still hurts."

"Your liver, is getting really sick and its not doing any good to you right now." I said and looked at her mom

"So people only get this from family members, you've had blood work down a couple weeks ago right." I asked and she shook her head

"So that means she got it from her dad."

"He took these medicine and blood work a couple of weeks, but I never asked." she said, and Nicole walked in

"Gaby, are you okay." she asked her

"So Gaby, I will be back in a little bit to get you ready for surgery, to draw some of the iron. I will get her on the liver transplant list, but it can take months to get her a new liver." I said and Gaby shook her head, I started walking out but

"Brooke." I turned around

"My brother is still really sorry."

"Ok.' I said and walked to the break room. I punch the wall.

"Brooke." Drew said

"Why does bad stuff happen, to good people."

"I cant tell you, but there's this guy outside asking for you. He looks pretty cute." He said, I walked outside and it was Nicole's brother.

"I don't have time for this, I have to get Gaby ready for surgery." I said, he grabbed my arm

"Listen, don't talk. just listen." he said, I shook my head

"I never meant to hurt you okay, it was a fucking dare and I didn't know you where even there. I was going to tell you, but you left so quickly before I could say anything. I said no to her, but she kept pushing it farther and farther. She had control, I tried so much to grab control but it never worked. Nobody was supposed to get , and especially you, if anyone deserves to be hurt it should be me." he said

"Ivan, I cant. You hurt me so bad, I almost quit med school. You hurt me and cant fix it, I'm sorry. I have to get back to work." I said and walked inside. I walked into Gaby's room.

"Lets get you better." I said got her ready for surgery

"Talk to my brother." Nicole asked

"Yeah, next time warn me because it is 4 in the morning and I've been working since 6."

"Ok, wish her good luck guys. You guys can wait in the waiting room over there." I said and they said there good lucks and wishes. I pushed her out and met up with Scott. I said good luck to her and sat in the chair at the nurses station.
