Waiting for the ambulance felt like the longest time in the world. Iestyn kept tight hold of Addy, rocking her gently in his arms and talking to her, growing more and more anxious the longer she took to come around. David stalled in the doorway for a moment, his heart catching in his chest, and he texted Rhiannon to let her know to come immediately.
"Da," Iestyn said, looking up in distress, and David had to pause a moment there too, not expecting to see a woman's face looking back at him.
"Blankets," David said quickly, going to fetch one to wrap Addy up and keep her warm until the EMTs arrived. If she was losing blood, she was going to get cold. "Keep talking to her, Iestyn."
