Warning: shittness ahead!

It had been 3 days since the party and me and Emily had stayed in contact, she had become a good friend  and it was great to have someone to talk to about girl things, Maxi could only do for so long!

We were at work and it was a hot spring day, I was driving in the rhino with Terry when Jake came over the radio

" hey guys we've got a suspected leg injury down at south end, can you go and see to that please?"

" sure thing" Terry replied whilst I drove through the crowds. There was a small crowd of people waving us over and we drove over to them, they were by the water and through the mass of people I could see someone on the floor. We jumped out

" so whats the problem then?" Terry asked as we weaved through the people, when we reached the boy we finally saw.

His leg seemed to be bending in the middle of the lower leg, it was clearly a broken bone

" arhhh!" the man writhed in pain. He looked to be about early thirties and a woman was crouched down next to him.

" oh right" Terry said he picked up the radio " hey jake we're gonna need a ambo, a severe fracture to the lower leg"

" hello love, right we're going to need to splint the leg and move you up to the tower where we can get you pain relief" I said softly. I saw terry get the splint out the back of the rhino. " are you his wife?" I asked

" yep, I'm nikki, his names Harry, is he going to be ok?" she said

" He will be fine when we get the leg splinted and him up in the tower with pain relief, is it just you two here today?"

" no we have our little girl Jazz here" Nikki said pointing to a little girl playing in the sand near us. 

" Ok that's fine", Terry walked over with the cardboard splint

" right Harry, this may hurt but the quicker the better, Jorja you know what to do" he said. I grasped his leg and very slowly lifted it slightly so Terry could slide the splint underneath. As I lifted his leg however, the bone moved under my hand. It took all my strength not to gag as I looked away from the leg. I could feel the bone in 2 parts in my hands.

" ARHH!, CRAP!" Harry yelled

" Sorry mate" Terry said as he fastened the buckles " you need the splint on"

" Nikki I'm sorry" Harry said as tears formed in his eyes

" its not your fault" she soothed

" can I ask what happened?" I said

" a board crashed into his leg in the surf" she said, I winced a little.

" ok, Jorja can you back the rhino right up here please?" Terry asked. I jumped in the rhino and slowly backed up to where they were. I jumped out " right Harry, we need to get you on the rhino, so we are going to lift you on, try to avoid moving your leg, We'll do that for you" Terry said

We grasped harry on either side of his body and very carefully lifted him onto the rhino. He was grimacing in pain as I carefully placed his leg up.

" We'll get you some pain relief up in the tower" I said " Nikki are you ready?"

Nikki grabbed little Jazz and we walked behind the rhino up to the tower. When we arrived Harries came bounding out with a green whistle.

" here you are mate, a few good puffs on that and you'll feel a little euphoric" he smiled. Harry took a few puffs and soon began swaying and chatting about complete rubbish.
