When the writing bug strikes at 1 in the morning, you obey it. Title is subject to change but this is my alternate universe of stupidly hot doctors and way too many romances. Heavy inspo from Grey's Anatomy but I'd like to think I'm taking my own spin on things. We're definitely not playing with the whole "intern and attending romance" thing just yet, unless I feel like I want to add more characters. Side note, this story is just for fun. My main focus is still the Misfits series but I wanted a story where I can have my steamy fun with my favorite characters, so forgive me for cliche lemony scene and slow updates to this story. I have no idea where it'll go but I'm excited to find out. Either way, I give you my short little introduction in May's perspective. Next chapter will be a short one of Drew's. As always, let me know what you think!
Now enough of my incessant rambling and let's get on with the chapter!
Chapter 1
.:.
The brunette sighed as she buttoned up her blouse and straightened out her blazer. First day jitters weren't supposed to be a thing, but, she supposed, first days working at world renowned hospitals called for them. She unconsciously ran her fingers through her silky brown hair. I shouldn't be this nervous she berated herself. She had been working her ass off since age seventeen, putting herself though college and medical school. She had fought tooth and nail to attend a good hospital for residency to end up where she was today.
She grabbed her coffee thermos and keys, before slinging her messenger bag over her shoulder. Glancing behind her shoulder, she took stock of her small apartment. Boxes were still scattered everywhere and the only things she had furniture wise were a ratty old couch and her banged up dining table. Shaking her head, she quickly closed the door and made her way to the elevator.
The streets of LaRousse were busy, no matter what time of the day. Her old stomping grounds of Staleport were never this congested, but it was just another thing that she had to get used to. She quickly hailed a cab and rattled off directions to the cabbie who clearly did not care about her or her destination. A short twenty minutes later, she was standing in front of one of the biggest and most prestigious hospitals in all of the country, LaRousse General Hospital. She stood there for a little bit, taking in the sights when the cabbie behind her cleared his throat to get his dues so he could move on to his next job. The brunette quickly sorted through her bag to pull out some errant bills and shoved them into the taxi cab driver's hands, waiting for her change to be given. The moment the bills were in her hand, the cabbie muttered a goodbye and sped off, leaving the brunette to her own devices. Glancing at the watch on her wrist, she quickly straightened out her blazer again and smoothed out her hair before walking in.
If it was possible for a hospital to be beautiful, LaRousse General fit the bill. It was certainly more grand and luxurious than the previous hospital she worked at in Staleport. The main lobby was gorgeous, with a grand staircase in the center, with entrances on either side that filtered into a catwalk. Resisting the urge to gape, the brunette walked over to the desk. The receptionist sitting there looked absolutely bored with her life, as she flipped through a magazine. Clearing her throat, the brunette waited until the receptionist looked up with an annoyed expression on her face. "Can I help you?" she asked, as if bothered that she actually had to do her job. The brunette resisted the urge to roll her eyes.
"Uh yes, I have a meeting with Eli Birch at eight o'clock this morning?" she responded, taking a quick glance at her watch again. Seven forty-five, she still had time. The receptionist turned to her computer.
"Name please?"
"Uh, May Maple," May responded. The receptionist clicked her mouse a couple of times and typed something before reaching down and handing her a temporary security badge. May took it and clipped it on to her blazer.
"Doctor Birch will be there shortly. You can go wait upstairs in front of his office. Up the stairs, turn left, the big office all the way down, you can't miss it. Have a nice day," she said monotonously. May gave her a small smile.
"Yea, you too," she responded, before making her way up the stairs. Her small heels clicked up the stairs. May rolled her eyes as she saw a couple of male doctors walk by, give her a once over, and whistle. Some things never changed. She readjusted the bag on her shoulder and paid them no attention. She was on a mission and no one was going to stop her.
