I'll keep you safe (Abigail x Bernie)

Chapter One

Bernie had recently flown back to the UK after being away at Nairobi for a few months to make sure that her new hospital was ready to open after making a few little changes from last time.

Bernie had invited to Jason's and greta's wedding but no one had heard back from her so they didn't think she was able to make it but Bernie was planning a surprise of her own as it was Bernie's and Serena's 3rd anniversary.

Serena had started to give up on her relationship with the blonde, as each time she would try to communicate with Bernie all she got back was Radio silence and started to wonder if Bernie was really with the wait.

As Serena was working through  her shift when she got a call to meet her in the on call room, Serena agreed and met Leah there. She went in and forgot to lock the the door. They started to make out on the bed

Bernie had landed in the uk and went back to Serena to see if she was there so she started to look around the house while eating a cheese and ham sandwich that she had made while she was in the kitchen, she sighed not seeing her around her house so she picked up Her rucksack and put over her shoulder and took a slowly walk to the hospital.

When Bern got there she went straight up to Abigail's office and went in  and smiled at her "Abs have you seen Serena? She's not at home?"

The younger blonde looked up at the older blonde with a smile "Bernie! Your back" the younger blonde paused "no I haven't seen her in a while , do you want me to page her?"

"No it's fine she's probably down in theatre, I can wait.. can I wait in here with you?"

The younger blonde nodded "stay as long as you like"

Bernie smiled softly and sat on the sofa "So is there anything I need to catch up on since the  last visit?"

The younger blonde looked at her wanting to tell her about Serena's affair with Leah but chose not to "there's an F1 you need to be Careful off..." Abigail spoke trying not to give to much away

The older blonde raises her eyebrow a little "it's not Cameron is it? I know he can be a real little shit"

"No it's not him it's someone else... who's actually on your ward... The AAU..."

The blonde raised her eyebrow again "then Who is it?"

"Her name is Leah Faulkner"

"She sorta sounds like a bitch.."

"Just wait till you see her.."

The older blonde nodded "Maybe I should go see if she needs any help?"

"Only if you want to"

"I think I might.. is that okay if I leave my things here?"

"Of course it is, I'll keep them safe" Abigail replied softly with a smile.

Bernie smiled "thank you" she said before leaving the office and made her way to AAU, on her way she would have to pass the On Call Room so she decided to have a look just in case Serena had sneaked off to have a nap. The blonde put her hand on the door handle and slowly opened it enough for her to look in, that's when she saw Serena and Leah making out.

The blondes heart broke into million of pieces watching her partner for a few moments before slamming the door shut behind her and walked away to the AAU office where she pulled down the blinds and stood in the middle of the office trying to process what she had saw.

Serena heard the door slam shut and got off Leah "I'm sorry" she said getting dressed going after whoever it was who slammed the door. Reaching the office door Serena took a deep breath and went in and saw Bernie.

"Bernie... your back..."

The blonde just nodded watching serena, Serena closed the office door and made her way over to Bernie where the blonde snapped

"No don't touch me!"

"Bern I've not done anything..."

"So you wasn't making out Leah?" The blonde spat folding her arms

"Yo...you saw...."

"Of course I bloody saw! I came looking for you to surprise you ... but what do I find? You fucking shagging an F1 that's old enough to be your daughter on our anniversary..."

The brunette looked at her "I'm sorry ... let me explain..."

"Explain what? That you love her more then me, that your just using me ? Actually I don't want to hear it... Leah's all yours, we're over..." the blonde spoke before leaving the office in a rush and left the ward.

The blonde headed outside and sat in the bench to calm herself down , she had her phone in her hand going through her photos deleting every picture of her and Serena one by one. Once she had deleted all the pictures she put her phone back into her pocket and looked out at the hospital beginning to think about what she was going to do as she didn't know if it was worth staying or not now that she was no longer with Serena .

Bernie decided that she was going to go back to Nairobi but for now she was going to stay and help so she went to see Abigail again.

Abigail was talking to Ric about a patient when the blonde barged into the office , she looked at them both "sorry nothing important... just to say I'm gonna be in theatre to help out..."

Abigail listened to the older blonde but could tell something was wrong after all she was best friends with Serena and now Bernie.

"No it's fine...everything's fine ... I'm fine... but maybe later though"

"Bernie... you know that my door is open anytime you need a chat.."

The older blonde just nodded and soon  went and scrubbed in to theatre, Bernie stood at the sink and washed her hands before leaning over the sink and stared into it thinking about what she had saw of Leah and Serena the image that wouldn't leave her mind, she sighed.
