What Just Happened?
Disclaimer: I don't own Scrubs.
Warning: This is my first Scrubs fanfiction so I hope I did Dr. Cox justice.
Coupling: Elliot & Doc. Cox
Elliot ran her fingers through her blonde hair. Why was this so hard? She was usually good in emergency situations. In fact it was her who usually helped others out when they needed quick info. She bit her lip and let out an anxious moan.
"Geez, Blondie. It's not rocket science just choose the candy already?"
Dr. Cox said annoyed at her. She turned to him and grimaced.
"It's not that easy. Whatever I choose is gonna have to last me for like 9 more hours."
"Hear that Barbie..."
He said holding his hand up to his ear and listening intently.
".. that's the sound of me not caring. Now hurry."
"Fine..."
Elliot sighed and pressed G4. A package of cookies dropped to the bottom of the machine. She bent down and reached her hand in the machine to grab the cookies. She popped back up and Dr. Cox looked at her annoyed.
"Finished?"
He asked his arms crossed over his chest. She nodded and walked over to sit on the couch. It was her break after all. She picked up the remote and flipped nonchalantly through the channels.
"Umm, Barbie."
"Yeah."
She said breaking out of her daze and looking up at the ever grumpy Dr. Cox.
"You do realize that since I am a slightly more superior official in this Hospital and it is my break that the remote is now under my control."
"Oh I'm sorry I didn't realize..."
She handed him the remote. He grabbed it from her.
"Now go along and play with the other children. Come on. Scoot."
She stood up and glared at him before walking out of the break room. He sat on the couch and smiled turning on his soaps.
Elliot fumed about it for the rest of the day. Where did he come off? Just because he was older he had no right to treat her like that. After a while she decided to confront him about it at the end of the shift.
"Hey, Dr. Jackass! Why are you so mean to everyone? What the hell is your problem? I mean who shoved the gigantic stick up your ass to make you so arrogant all the time?"
Elliot smiled with satisfaction at the mirror in the bathroom and washed her hands. Someone opened the door and she looked over quickly. Dr. Cox stood there shell shocked. She could have sworn she'd gone into the girls bathroom. She looked around at the absense of urinals and started to laugh.
"You walked into the girls bathroom!"
She laughed some more at the thought of his mortified face but she realized her thought wasn't going the way she'd planned. His face wasn't mortified. In fact he was laughing. He fell back laughing against the wall next to the door.
"It's been a long day. This is just what I needed."
He said and laughed some more.
"Your laughing? What? You should be embarrased! I mean you always embarrass other people when they make mistakes but you just laugh when you make them. That's not fair!"
She said walking over to him.
"Yes well normally I would have scowled and walked out but I just needed to laugh at anything. My day really needed a lift and Missy wasn't helping with his stupid attempts at humor."
He continued to laugh even harder against the wall.
"Stop laughing!"
He didn't stop he just kept on laughing. She didn't want him to be laughing she wanted him mortified or at least speechless. Not an easy job but she would find a way to do it. Suddenly, a light bulb went off above her head. She stepped closer to him but he didn't notice since he was still laughing. He did notice her when her lips were pressed against his. She was surprisingly strong as she pressed up against him. Leaning into a kiss she'd only meant to be small. He let out a small groan and pushed her up against the door blocking anyone from entering or leaving in that case. He groaned and brought his hands up to the sides of her face.
"You don't know how much trouble your in Barbie."
He said huskily and pressed his lips against hers hungrily before she could reply. Their tongues mingled with one another as he explored her body through her clothes. She kissed back just as hungrily. Then she pushed him away. How did he do that? Turn her world upside down even though she was supposed to do it to him.
She smiled and straightened her clothing. He looked at her shocked a low fog still hovering in his eyes. She took this opportunity to walk out of the bathroom before she changed her mind. Damn he was a good kisser.
She walked down the hallway toward the nurses desk and waved at Carla. She was ready to leave for a while. Besides, she had to figure out what she was gonna do about Dr. Cox by her next. She smiled and stepped out of the hospital she'd worked at for what felt like years and sighed. Today was a good day.
