Chapter 1- My Accident
Sitting in the on call room, JD stared at the ceiling and sighed. Bland. Cold. Story of his life. Sometimes, he just wished he wasn't a doctor. He thought he should've taken the job as a clown and been happy with it but no, he had to go to med school with Turk. From beneath him, he heard a loud, bulldozer like snore and sighed for the thirtieth time that day.
"Hey, people are sleeping in here." He shouted despite the fact he wasn't. A slow mumble implied he was waking up. JD hoped it was a he because it was a manly snore.
"Susan? I hope you didn't just wake me up." Dr Cox replied as JD bent over the side of the bed to look at the bunk below him. "Oh you did, great. Can a man not weep alone anymore?" JD stared in confusion.
"You were weeping?" JD asked with wide eyes. Dr Cox dropped his head onto the pillow.
"Oh Sally." He mumbled as the Janitor appeared and pushed him out of the bed. "Thank you." Dr Cox smiled at the man and closed his eyes. JD whimpered on the floor, his leg in a strange position. "You okay?" Dr Cox asked with his eyes still closed.
"I think I twisted something." He bit back tears in his eyes and made a valiant effort to stand which failed. Perry stood and helped him.
"Okay, I'll help you but you have to promise me you will never wake me up when I am sleeping in the on call room when I shouldn't be okay?" JD mutely nodded. "Good girl." He grinned and tried to support JD without him falling over. "I need you to help me." He replied and looked at JD with almost pleading eyes.
"Sorry." JD replied and tried to hobble along the carpet. When they reached a vacant bed, he sat JD down and stared at his swollen ankle.
"I think it might be a bit more than twisted." JD looked up worried. "Calm down, you'll get your hormones in a tangle." JD frowned. Why he put up with this abuse he didn't know. He asked himself that same question everyday but he never found an answer. Pressing on his ankle, Dr Cox kept a serious expression on his face. "Does that hurt?" JD nodded and flinched. "Okay." He looked up and saw fear in the intern's eyes.
"Dr Cox, is it alright?" Perry shrugged and looked at the ankle.
"Can you twist it?" JD shook his head and winced at the sharp shoot of pain. "I think it's broken. I'll have to get you an x-ray." JD nodded. "I'll get you a hospital gown." Disappearing out of the room, Dr Cox shook his head. That kid was accident prone. It was almost as bad as the time he got viscously attacked by a squirrel in the park. When he returned, the intern was playing with his thumbs. Dr Cox smiled affectionately before shaking it off and opening the curtain. "Okay, here's a hospital gown, I am not dressing you." Throwing at the intern's head the gown, he turned and retreated, leaving JD to manoeuvre his scrubs around the swollen ankle he was plagued with. "Are you decent?" He asked after about five minutes. JD nodded mutely before adding,
"Yeah." Perry appeared and hid a smile. He looked ridiculous in the dress-like attire he was wearing. "Okay, okay go on." JD sighed and rolled his eyes.
"Did you just roll your eyes at me? I hope for your sake you didn't. I can give you more than a swollen ankle." JD gulped aloud and shook his head. Ted appeared in front of the curtain and tapped JD on the shoulder.
"Technically, John Dorian is now a patient and it is against hospital regulations to harm him in any way." Perry looked at him, anger and fury in his eyes conveying.
"Get out of here sweaty Teddy, I got patients to look after."
