Silence had descended upon TB2's cockpit like a stone veil. The impending disaster weighed on their minds; the wait was always the worst. Nikki's eyes were fixed squarely on one of the windows. Beside her, Dianne's were closed, as if in meditation. Brains and John were sitting together, conversing in low tones. Dominic glanced out of the side of his eye at Kat, who was peering up at Virgil and the controls.
"Nervous?" He asked.
Kat gave him a small smile.
"A little. I don't know what to expect."
Dominic nodded brought a hand to his face, still feeling bereft without his glasses.
"Don't think about it," he said. "You learn not too, so. When I was with LifeFlight... God, it was awful sometimes."
Kat looked as if she was waiting for elaboration, but none came. No point in giving everyone anything else to think about, Dom thought.
"How and ever, the point is, if you don't think about it, you've no expectations. And when you get there, don't think about it. D'you get my drift?"
"I do," Kat said. "Although I doubt if it will be easy."
"No, love, it won't be."
They were silent again, and Dominic slid down a little in the seat. Now I'd better hope all this bravado pans out, eh?
