KELLY: Calm down, i'll call her now.
Doctor Halstead came into the room with Doctor Charles.
WILL: Beth, i'm giving you something to calm you down
BETH: I don't want anything! (shouting)
Half an hour later Beth was lying in bed asleep. Will had managed to give her a sedative. Kelly had called Freya to bring over their daughter.
FREYA: Kelly!
Kelly turned to look at Freya. She was holding Rosie's hand. He tried with all of his strength to stop himself from crying.
KELLY: Rosie, come see daddy!
ROSIE : Me no like eels on the bus!
Rosie walked over to Kelly. He picked her up and held her close.
KELLY: I love you baby
ROSIE: Uv you!
Rosie looked at Beth who was sleeping.
ROSIE: Mommy sleeping!
KELLY: Mommy's sleeping
ROSIE: Cuddle!
FREYA: Fuck, sorry (quietly)
Freya had to leave the room. Shaylynn gave her a hug.
SHAYLYNN: What are we going to do ?
FREYA: I have no idea Shaylynn, i don't know how Beth is going to cope
Meanwhile back in the recovery room. Beth began to wake up, she was talking in her sleep.
BETH: Kelly i had an awful dream (sleepily)
Rosie was sitting on the bed next to Beth
ROSIE: Mommmmmmy!
BETH: Hey baby!
Beth opened her eyes and saw Rosie. She smiled at her then realised she was lying in a hospital bed.
BETH: Kelly? (crying)
KELLY: I'm here babe
Beth pulled Rosie down on top of her and squeezed her real tight.
BETH: Are you okay?
ROSIE: Yes! Mommmmy me no like eeeels on the bus!
Beth stayed in hospital for a few more days leaving Freya and Shaylynn organising the funeral for Ellie and Jaden. Kelly spent as much time in the hospital with Beth as he could. Beth could hardly look at Kelly as he reminded her of Ellie.
KELLY: Beth, why won't you look at me?
BETH: I can't! (quietly)
KELLY: Babe! (crying)
BETH: I'm sorry, i can see Ellie in your face, i'm sorry!
KELLY: What? So you're never going to look at me again?
Beth didn't know what to say. She wiped her eyes with a Kleenex.
KELLY: Don't you dare push me away!
BETH: I'm not! I just need time to process .....
KELLY: Time? We'll never get over this! We need to be there for each other!
Will had walked into the room then began to walk out again.
WILL: Sorry, bad timing!
KELLY: I'm sorry, come on in.
