MY GEEK BOMBSHELL
I guess I shouldn't have suggested she go as Princess Leia. I shouldn't have suggested she go at all, and certainly not with me. And definitely not in that costume.
But it wasn't my fault. She was the one who started talking about it. She was the one who had brought out the inner Geek in me. And it was her parents who begged me to take her.
It all started when Ellie was admitted to our ward. Shy, young Ellie, who had only just turned 18, and was admitted with yet another episode of her grumbling appendix. I'd known her and her parents for several months, as she bounced in and out of the out-patients department with chronic abdo pain. But now here she was, her first time on an adult ward, and her first time alone and away from her parents. I'd managed to get her a side room, away from all the old people, the noisy confused, and those that constantly coughed and hacked. She was shy and frightened at the best of times, but now she was like the proverbial rabbit in a headlight. So, as the nurse in charge on that shift, I secured her a separate room, complete with en-suit toilet, and shower.
"Thanks, Harry," her mum said as she left her daughter on the first night. "It means so much to us, knowing that you're looking after her."
"That's fine, Mrs Ellingham," I said. "She's my eldest daughter's age, so I know just what to do."
But seeing Ellie Ellingham's youthful body wrapped in a thin hospital nightgown, made things stir inside me that definitely weren't at all fatherly.
"How's that, Ellie?" I adjusted her oxygen tubing around her head, stroking away wisps of thick, long brown hair, that fell bellow her shoulders.
She nodded, barely able to talk after the past three hours in accident and emergency. "My stomach's still sore, Harry."
She lifted her nightgown to reveal a perfect abdomen, with a tiny pinched waist, and hips that curved gently outward. I tore my eyes away from the sight, but only as far as her chest below the blue and white stripes of hospital cotton. Her breasts rose and fell, forcing me to lick my lips.
"Do you want some more pain killers?"
"Yes please, Harry."
I looked at her drug chart and swallowed. The only pain killer she could have was an injection that would have to go in her ass. I tried every other nurse on shift, but they were all too busy looking after their own patients.
"I'm afraid this is going to have to go in your bum, Ellie."
"Just do it." She rolled over and I pulled down her tiny white cotton panties. Perhaps I pulled them down too far, and maybe I shouldn't have taken quite as long over it as I should have, but there was a certain sense of tension as I inserted the needle through her pale white flesh. As I released the small volume of fluid into her I heard a little cry escape from her lips.
It was almost too much not to kiss the spot where the needle had been. I pulled her panties back up, and helped her to roll back.
I unpacked her white plastic bag that had accompanied her from A&E. A baggy pair of grey sweatpants, and dirty white sneakers were stuffed into the lower part of her locker. A white Darth Vader T-shirt came next, followed by a pair of yellow cotton knickers. Last but no means least was her frilly white bra, complete with underwires. I gave close inspection of the labels, which told me this garment would support a 30D figure. I folded this carefully, slowly, and placed it on top of her other clothes.
I didn't sleep much that night, as it's difficult when you are in a permanent state of arousal.
My first job at the start of the morning shift was to check in on Ellie. She had been down to theatre and finally had her appendix removed under keyhole surgery late last night. She told me she'd slept soundly when she'd got back to the ward, but that she had been sweating all night and felt uncomfortable.
"How's the pain?" I asked, trying hard not to stare at her stomach and breasts.
"A lot better, thanks."
"Do you want a shower?"
"I don't think I could manage that."
"I can stay and help? Or get one of the female nurses, I mean?" What the fuck was I saying?
She shook her head. "I'll just wash my face, I think. But will you help me? I don't want any of the others."
I poured warm water into a bowl and set it on her bed table, along with soap and a towel. I watched her make a pathetic attempt, but she was so weak I had to intervene. I washed her face and hands with a flannel and soap, before drying her pale white skin with the towel. Her big brown eyes smiled back at me, and her maroon lips kept mouthing the words "thank you."
Ellie couldn't have been described as the class beauty, but she had a simpleness, and purity about her that was mesmerising. I'd never seen her wear any makeup, but her full lips, and high cheekbones still got my attention.
"Can I have a new nightgown, please? This one's horrid."
"I think they're all horrid, I'm afraid, Ellie. But I can get you a clean one if you like?"
She nodded, smiling.
I returned with a clean nightgown. "You want a hand?"
She nodded again, pulling the bed sheet up to her chest. I undid the little ties at the back, and eased the gown forward off her shoulders. "Would you like me to give your back a wash?"
She nodded, and washed as quickly as I could with wipe and soap. I washed as low down her back as I could, and as far round her sides as I dare, before drying with the towel.
"Feel better?"
"Thanks, Harry."
I held up the new gown for her. She dropped the sheet and her old gown, and lifted her arms up. For nearly a whole second, both her firm, round breasts were displayed to me. Each one a complete, perfect circle a hand widths wide. Her tiny crimson nipples seemed to accentuate their size, positioned right in the very centre of two perfectly weighted orbs.
I must have let out a gasp, as her eyes darted up to mine. I quickly leant behind her, and busied myself with doing up the ties down her back.
"Breakfast's here soon," I said, clearing away her wash things.
Whilst breakfast was being given out, I payed a visit to the men's room, locked myself in a cubicle, and rid myself of the blatant evidence that proved my lack of professionalism.
That morning, I spent as much time with her as possible. Her parents had brought her in some Sci Fi magazines, and we looked through these together. She was heavily in to all the vampire stuff that the teenagers love, but her biggest kick was Star Wars. I was amazed at her knowledge of every single episode, the names of the characters, ships, planets, and the plots. She listened in awe as I told her I had seen the very first episode back in the seventies, and how I'd gotten addicted ever since.
