Going Back To the Past

Lucky tonight had been a slow night in the North West trauma unit. I had worked here for almost 5 years, this was my dream job. Yea working night shifts sucked when my friends wanted to go out for lunch, or adventures, but I was rolling in the extra money I was making on night shift. Kidding, but night shift had its perks, there wasn't as many people coming and going, and no one was admitted after ten.

Tonight I had 4 patents to look after, three of them were heavily sedated, and the other didn't cause much trouble. it was close to 2 o'clock in the morning, so I started my rounds again. Mr. Jefferson had fallen from roof and had broken multiple broken, but after receiving drugs he slept peacefully like nothing had happen. After seeing two of my other patents, Alex was the only one left to take vitals from. Alex was only 18, he had been in car wreck and had broken a few ribs and had a collapsed lung.

Alex had the lights on which was odd, I figured that he would have been asleep by now. I knocked in the door while I entered. "Alex, it's me Anna. I came to get vitals." as soon a I opened the door he yelled to get out. It looked like he had been crying. Since the accident he has been remembering small bits of what happened. It was actually really sad, a drunk driver crossed over the median and struck his car head on. His best friend and little sister were in the car. His sister and the other driver was fine, but the crash ended up killing his best friend.

"Alex what's wrong?" I asked.
"Nothing I just want to be alone right now." he replied.
"Okay it will only take me a few minutes to do what I need to do. Is that okay?"
"Yea, I guess" he said while wiping his face.
I started to check the machines that were in the room. When I looked over at Alex he had his phone going through pictures. At this time he had his headphones in listening to music. After finishing up with the machines I need to take his blood pressure. I motioned for him to lifted his arm up, and he did. In the process of putting the cup on his arm I pulled out one of his head phones.
"I'm sorry dear." I apologized
"It's okay" he said while he started to but the head phone back in place.
"So what are you listening to?" I asked
"A band called Pierce the Veil, they are my favorite band"
"Oh I've never heard of them, they must be good if they are your favorite." I tried to keep the conversation going.
"Yea they came out with a new album yesterday but, you know I'm in here so I can't go get it, and my mom doesn't like them. So she won't buy it for me." He said.
"Man that sucks. Well I'm all done here. You should try to get some sleep it will be good for you."
He pulled up his covers and put down his phone as I walked out of the room turning off the light. The rest of the night was still slow and I ended up getting lucky and got to leave early.
