Pearl Harbor: Nurse's Wings

Disclaimer: I own nothing from the movie, only my OC Georgia.

I've been flirting with the idea of writing a Pearl Harbor fanfiction for a while, ever since I did my History essay on the terrible event, and recently saw the movie as well. THIS IS NOT A SISTER FIC! So please don't just click the "Back" button. This is, however, a fanfiction about a nurse who only ever served in Pearl Harbor. I'm trying to make her seem as real as possible, and I'd love to hear some reviews from the readers about their ideas as I continue on in the story. I am also thinking about asking for a Beta Reader. My editing, well, for a lack of a better word, sucks. So please review!

Thanks to you all

Justice.

Georgia sighed as she shook her head, looking down at the sunburned rump of one of the Navy soldiers that had come off of the Arizona. "You really need to learn to cover yourself Darcy, this is getting very old, very quickly." She stated, unimpressed before the Head Nurse came to stand beside her, smirking slightly as she threw a cooled towel over his behind. The man winced slightly as he let out a loud and long hiss of pain, tensing up.

"I was trying to get a tan!" The man exclaimed finally, after he had relaxed onto his stomach on the bed. "I didn't know I would get a sun burn!" Georgia smirked as she rolled her eyes slightly.

"Cause Lord knows that if you lie under the sun for hours on end, you won't get a sunburn." She laughed as she shook her head, and the Head Nurse laughed as well. "You're in the Navy! You should know better Darcy!"

"Sorry, ma'am." Darcy finally gave in trying to give excuses and sighed, laying his head down on the pillow. Georgia's face softened slightly as she sighed, shaking her head. She could never remain mad at someone for long.

"It's alright. We'll get you fixed up so you can go back to swabbin' those decks, huh?" She stated as she smiled slightly and Darcy nodded his head, once again sighing as he closed his eyes.

Georgia had been working in Pearl Harbor for nearly a year now, and couldn't feel more at ease. When she had joined the school for nursing at the age of seventeen, she hadn't known what to be expecting. Half of her put images in her head of amputating limps and gushing arteries, and she had been nearly scared out of quitting right then and there. Something kept pulling her back in class after class, until she had finally graduated. She had been at the top of all her classes, and almost instantly was signed up for the Navy Nurses.

When posted at Pearl Harbor she was just a simple RN, but being Pearl Harbor with little to no staff in her hospital, it was easy to climb the ranks in the short time she had been here. She was now the assistant to the Head Nurse, and one of the hospitals more valued nursing staff. She had worked hard, and was rewarded with coming such a long way in such a short amount of time.

Then again, it sometimes didn't feel like much of an accomplishment when all she was doing was soothing angry sunburns, or taking care of the odd bad case of the flu. She was grateful that she was so far away from the war; because how much farther away can you get from Europe than Hawaii? She'd much rather deal with the vomiting and rubbing lotion on bare bottoms, than to deal with the ghastly war wounds she had heard so much about. Legs and arms severed from shells, burns that cause the skin to melt on contact, just thinking about it made her stomach turn.

"Welcome Ladies!" The Head Nurse suddenly spoke up as Georgia was brought out of her musings. She looked up to see a group of new nurses probably, on average, a year or two older than herself.

"Hi." The all greeted, smiling and looking bright, some in mirth as they looked down to Darcy who tried to hide his face pathetically from the new, pretty nurses.

"Could this get any worse?" Georgia heard him groan into his pillow as she bit back a giggle, shaking her head. Smoothing out her casual uniform she stepped out from behind the bed, walking towards them. She knew it was her duty as assistant to show them around. She smiled as she brushed some of her wavy brown hair that had escaped from her messy bun behind her ear.

"Hello Ladies," Georgia greeted again as her own green eyes mirrored their's in mirth, knowing that they were now obviously staring at the clearly embarrassed Darcy. "I'm Georgia, the assistant Head Nurse, the Head Nurse, being the one currently taking care of our Mr. Darcy's tender behind." She stated as she smirked, turning and gesturing towards the woman.

"I have to deal with toasty sunburnt fanny," Gloria, the Head Nurse, stated as she smirked, pulling the white towel back from his butt. Darcy looked away instantly from the girls as Georgia heard them begin to giggle from behind her. "So my assistant will have to show you around." She ended before smacking Darcy lightly on his sunburnt upper leg.

"Ow!" Darcy cried out pathetically as he continued to look away from the nurses, who were outright laughing now. Georgia couldn't help laughing a bit herself as she shook her head, turning around and leading them out of the room.

"Come on girls, that's enough embarrassment for the poor man for today." Georgia smirked slightly as she walked down the hall, and could hear the girl's heels clipping behind her. Georgia herself didn't like heels, but maybe it was because she also didn't have the legs to wear them. She wasn't short, she was average, but her body type wasn't suited. She was rather chubby, though not overweight, she still had meat on her. In fact, her body type was similar to one of the new nurse's, although they really looked nothing alike except for that.

"In here is the surgery ward." Georgia stated as she opened the first set of doors that they got to. "Over there," She added, pointing to the shelves and cupboards across the room. "is where you will find all your needs for the Doctor during any operation. Though I must say, having been here the past year, I have yet to see a serious operation being performed." She stated as she smiled slightly. "Go ahead and familiarize yourself with the room." Georgia stood back as the girls did just that, watching as a blonde one came up to her, smiling rather childishly. She looked so innocent, so young to be a nurse already.

"I'm Betty, by the way." She greeted as she smiled, giggling. "I can already tell I'm going to like it here."

"Well, if you're one for slow paces and relaxing days, then you will." Georgia smiled as she nodded.

"How many cute guys do you have coming through here?" Came a heavy accented woman, also blonde as Betty gasped, giggling.

"Barbara!" She exclaimed, as if scandalize, but obviously not totally opposing the answer to the question. Georgia smirked slightly as she laughed.

"There are countless men here to serve on this island, you're bound to get one or two cute ones that manage to hurt themselves and find their ways here." Georgia smirked as Barbara smirked in return, nodding.

"Barbara! We are-" Came another voice from across the room, and this time it was a brunette woman with glasses.

"I know Susan, I know. We are Navy Nurses." Barbara rolled her eyes as she waved her hand.

"I'm Evelyn." The dark haired woman greeted as well when she walked up to the slowly growing circle. She was really pretty, and Georgia knew the men would be all over her in a second when they saw her around the hospital.

Too bad she couldn't even get one that would look that way at her.

"Nice to meet you Evelyn. So, what do you think so far?" Georgia asked as she smiled slightly.

"I think it's wonderful here. I don't mean to pry, or seem rude, but there is something that I just got to know." Evelyn stated as she bit her red bottom lip slightly. Georgia looked at her curiously.

"And that is?" She asked as Evelyn sighed.

"How old are you?" She blurted out as the girls all gasped slightly, but looked on intently. Georgia laughed slightly as she shook her head at their obvious discomfort.

"It alright, really. I'm nineteen going on twenty. My birthday is coming up in December." Georgia smiled as they all looked at her disbelievingly. "I'm telling the truth, really I am." She always had people who thought she was lying when she told them her age, just because of how far she had come within her profession.

"Wow, you must've really worked hard to be assistant Head Nurse in this hospital at such a young age." One of the girls she didn't know spoke up. Blushing slightly at the praise, she shook her head.

"Not really, it's not that hard to do here. Before you bunch flew in there really wasn't many nurses here to begin with. It was a promotion made by both the lack of those to select and a lot of good luck." Georgia stated as she sighed softly. "I'm a Lieutenant, and all of you would've probably been able to do the same, had you been here earlier." She added as she smiled softly. The girls smiled as well, before Georgia sighed, knowing that had to get on with the tour.

"Now, if you'll follow me Ladies, the next stop is also the most important." Georgia stated while smirking as she led them back out into the hall.

"The kitchen." Giggles ensued.

I would love to hear your thoughts! Please Review and I promise to get another chapter out as soon as possible.
