AN: Here I am again writing a new fic when I haven't even finished my other ones. But I'm hoping to finish 2 of them in a week or so. This idea came into my mind when I re watched some of the episodes of Brendan in a wheelchair. Review/Follow/Fav do what you want lol. Enjoy =)


Monday 7AM

"Ames I got it. You act like I ain't ever done manual labor in me lifetime."

"Just be careful Ste. I'm gonna run inside real quick make sure Leah and Lucas are ok. Don't move or anything."

Amy runs inside the house to go check up on the kids while Ste stays on top of the roof. It's a simple job. Just change a couple of the old ruined shingles. How hard could it be. Very hard actually. Ste gets inpatient of waiting for Amy to come back out. Apparently she thinks if she is out there and he falls she will magically be able to catch him. Ste knows she would just let him fall flat on his face. Screw it he thinks to himself as he gets up and starts working on an area of the roof. He's actually doing a good job and everything goes well at first. Suddenly out of nowhere a bird comes flying straight at him causing Ste to jump and lose his footing. He starts sliding down and he paws at anything he can get his hands on. He grabs onto a wire but it snaps under the pressure. With only the edge of the roof left Ste tries desperately to grab it but misses it. With the few seconds before he hits the concrete driveway below he thinks which position would hurt less to land on. He tries to turn to the side to avoid hitting his head but ends up landing right on his back. Ste knows this is bad as soon as he heard the breath stopping CRACK of bones. The pain doesn't kick in immediately, but then it all comes out in a wave. Ste starts shouting as if he is getting stabbed over and over again. He barely registers that Amy is even outside with him screaming at the phone. She's panicked and can't stand still.

"Oh god oh my god. Please send help! He's not moving! Hurry please please!"

He can hear the fear in her voice as she tells Leah to stay inside. She looks at him and gives him a smile to let him know he will be ok but he knows she's straining to make it look believable.

"Ambulance is on the way Ste! Just stay still."

She keeps talking to him but he starts losing consciousness and slowly her image fades away.


Monday 1 PM

Ste opens his eyes and for a second thinks he's in heaven. There are blinding white lights shining on him. He tries to move his hand to block it but a sharp pain shoots up his whole body as he does that. He closes his eyes and tries it again. And once more the lights blind him. This time he blinks repeatedly as he tries to focus his eyes. It's all a bit blurry but he can make out silhouettes. He finds that he can move his head around fine so he turns to the side and realizes he's not dead at all. Although he kind of wishes he was with the excruciating pain he is going through. But no here he is in the hospital after falling several feet off the roof and onto a concrete pavement.

"Ste you're up! Oh my god! Thank you thank you thank you!" Amy runs out of the room to probably grab a nurse. Ste closes his eyes till he hears the door open again.

"Mr. Hay glad to see you woke up. Scared us for a minute there." Ste stares at the woman dumbfounded and she picks up on it. "Oops sorry I should introduce myself. I'm Dr. Brady. I work in the emergency department and was on duty when they brought you in. You were unconscious love. Amy told me about what happened. I would like to let you know your injuries if you're ok."

Ste nods and looks over at Amy. She moves over and takes the seat next to him.

"So it's pretty severe. You broke a couple of ribs. Luckily tho they didn't puncture your lungs. Very lucky actually. A bit of internal bleeding but we fixed that. Your leg is broken and you really damaged your back. But again you're lucky that you didn't break your back or your neck. Love, you are going to have to get used to a wheelchair for a bit and some physical therapy. We are going to keep you here for a couple days maybe a week or two. My brother who is actually one of the physical therapist and a nurse here will be in charge of you. I'll go get him and after that whenever you need anything please do not hesitate to ask him."

"Thank you so much Dr. Brady." Amy barely even says it as she is crying a river.

"You are very welcome. And please call me Cheryl. If you need anything I'm here all night. I'll send Brendan in to come see how you are in a couple minutes. You two settle in ok. Take care love."

Cheryl smiles at Amy and lightly pats Ste on the arm and walks out of the room. That's when Amy wipes her tears and looks at Ste like she wants to strangle him.

"I told you not to go around moving up there without me!"

"What do you think you would have done Amy? Just catch me with ease!"

"I could have done something!"

"No! It would have happened anyway! There was nothing that you would have done that would have prevented this. So just stop! You're doing me head in!"

"You know Ste just...fine! I'm gonna go outside get some air. This time how about you actually listen and don't move!"

Ste barely hears her mumble "idiot" as she slams straight through the doors. He notices that she almost runs into someone in her haste trying to get out of there. He finally relaxes and closes his eyes. It must have been a couple of minutes before he hears he's name.

"Steven. Steven. Wake up."

Ste grumbles and just keeps his eyes closed.

"Ste wake up!" Amy pats his arm slightly harder than Cheryl did and he opens his eyes and sees an angry Amy and a man next to her. A very good looking man next to her. His hair is jet black and perfectly spiked up with just a couple of stray hairs at the front. He has black scrubs on so he notices he has muscles. He trails his eyes down and sees a massive scar on his arm that begins right around the elbow all the way to his ring finger which he doesn't fail to notice has a ring on it. Ste realizes he has been staring for a little longer than he should so he flicks his eyes back at the man and sees an expression of boredom as he chews on gum.

"Sorry about that he needs a little motivation to get him to do anything. I need to call the babysitter so I'll be outside Ste. Be nice yeah." Amy gives him a tense smile and walks out leaving him with this nurse.

Ste waits for him to say anything but he doesn't. Awkward much. He thinks one of them has to say something before this gets cringe worthy.

"I'm Brendan. Steven is it?"

"Yeah but everyone calls me Ste."

Brendan just walks over to the front of the bed and picks up Stes chart.

"Hmm it says Steven on here so that's what I'm gonna call you ok."

"Fine. Whatever." Ste pouts and rests his head back on the pillow.

"You met my sister right?" Ste nods. "She asked me to basically be your nurse till you get out of here. So here I am. You need anything? Water? Tv?" Ste nods to say no.

"Good. Anyway I was on break before I got called here so hit that button there if you need me." Brendan puts down the chart and makes his way out the door. "Oh Steven don't hit that button for something stupid tho ok. Like your lonely and you need someone to talk to." He doesn't give him a smile or anything just chews his gum and walks out. Ste turns his head to look out the window and sighs heavenly.

"Note of advice Ste. Never work on the roof again."
