A special Flashpoint fan fictionÂ
Sam: pov Jules has been working on one of her diy kits for a bit while I watched a hockey game on TV. Now that the game is over I decided to do some push up on the floor as exercise.Â
Nurse fisher: pov constable Braddock why are you on the floor and Is everything okay?
Sam: pov everything is fine just doing some push ups since I don't want to leave Jules and can't get to the gym for my normal workout.Â
Nurse fisher: pov that makes sense, how are you doing Jules.
Nurse fisher: pov no weird symptoms.Â
Sam: pov we've been keeping an eye out for them the Dr told us to.
Nurse fisher: pov her vitals look great, considering what happened to her that is amazing.Â
Sam: pov I got Jell-O apple sauce and bananas at the store would you like some.
Jules: pov sure, a banana is fine they have to go first anyway.Â
Sam: pov what flavor of electrolyte drink would you pink.
Jules: pov Is there any pink ones?.
Sam: pov sure is. While she eats her snack and drinks her drink I eat a granola bar and drink some water. You look sleepy, it might be time for bed.
Jules: pov can you get in bed with me.
Sam: pov sure, I just need to change and brush my teeth. Let's get you to the bathroom before bed while you are in there you can brush your teeth.
Sam: pov I will grab our toiletries and a change of clothes while you get out of bed. Then I can change while you go pee.Â
Jules: pov what I don't get to watch you change.Â
Sam: pov it's not like i’m changing in the room a nurse could walk in. I'm talking about changing in the bathroom while you pee and wash your hands.
Jules: pov oh. I make sure my wires aren't tangled as I get out of bed, the walk to the bathroom is short.  Â
Sam: pov I got everything we need. I take off my shirt first and put on an old military shirt I sleep in after that I take off my pants and put on some comfy ones to sleep in.Â
Jules: pov as me and Sam are brushing our teeth i can hear a nurse in the room it seems like she is looking for Sam for some reason. It sounds like nurse fisher.
Sam: pov hey nurse Fisher were you looking for me.
Nurse fisher: pov actually yes, there is a patient down stairs who was just brought in, former military guy the Drs are concerned that he still thinks he's over there fighting the war.
Sam: pov do they think he has ptsd.
Nurse fisher: pov there not sure, it's making it hard to treat him he needs tests and stuff. He came in for another reason. The psychological isn't getting through to him and the Dr's don't want to sedate him. Maybe you can help with you being SRU and former military. I was wondering if you would be willing to talk with him soldier to soldier.
Sam: pov sure i’m willing to try. I will be back soon, Jules.
Nurse fisher: pov thank you so much for doing this. I tell Sam as much info as I can while we walk to the exam room. Dr Klein this is Sam Braddock.
Psychologist Dr Klein: pov nice to meet you nurse fisher said you were in the military.Â
Sam: pov yes JTF2 served 2 tours one of them was operation kbar.
Psychologist Dr Klein: pov Nurse fisher said you might be able to help and I'm willing to try anything. The Dr is with him now.Â
Sam: pov hi kayden, master corporal Braddock here can you tell me how you are feeling today.Â
Kayden: pov my head hurts, but I can't leave my post in case we come under enemy fire.Â
Sam: pov i took care of everything, these nice people want to check to make sure you are okay and don't have a concussion. Is that okay with you? I can stay with you for a bit if you want.
Kayden: pov but then who will be watching my post.
Sam: pov I got that taken care of you don't need to worry. How about we talk while they check you out, keep your mind occupied.
Sam: pov how did your head get hurt.
Kayden: pov I heard enemy fire and the next thing I know i’m on the ground and my head hurts.Â
Sam: pov it's obvious to me this guy has ptsd and a concussion from a bad fall. Dr Markaway explains everything he is going to do to Kayden before he does it. Why don't you tell me about where you served.
Kayden: pov my unit was stationed in the middle east 6 of my unit never made it, our camp was attacked in the middle of the night I took cover in the tent and eliminated the enemies.Â
Sam: pov i know what it's like to lose a team mate, i served in JTF2 served 2 tours one of them was operation kbar. I lost my best friend Matt in a friendly fire incident where I was cleared to fire. The military sent me home a few days later because they were concerned it would affect how I did my job. I’m now a police officer saving lives instead of taking them. It's okay to not be okay, nobody is perfect. I thought I left the war behind until a team member of mine, a police officer named Lou Young, stepped on a landmine during a bomb call. He didn't make it. I thought I let him down. I have experience with landmines and I couldn't even help him.Â
Kayden: pov it's okay I felt the same when I couldn't help my unit and they died.Â
Dr Markaway: pov Kayden I need to take you for scans to make sure everything is okay with your head. I think you hit it pretty hard.
Kayden: pov can Sam stay with me and talk.
Dr Markaway: pov that's fine as long as Dr Klein is allowed to come.
Sam: pov me and kayden chatted for a while the technician in the scan room gave me a headset so I can talk with him during the scan. Afterwards they got him settled in his room. I will talk to you soon. You have my number, call whenever you need to talk. Dr Klein pulls me aside to thank me.Â
Dr Klein: pov because of you I got so much information and I can now properly treat Kayden on top of the possible concussion he is definitely dealing with post traumatic stress disorder.Â
Sam: pov also him wanting to not leave his post is a sign of him feeling like he failed his unit. I say goodbye to the Dr's and head back to Jules’s room. To be continued. …………….
