Chapter 1 - Liaisons?
* Carter's POV *
"Ok people," Susan shouted through the ER. "I need volunteers." She looked over at me. " And if I don't get them," evil grin. "I'll pick on people."
"Are you going to enter?" I asked Abby, while scrubbing something off the board. Susan had been obsessed with Valentines Day this year. Any one who had the evening off was being bullied into entering her Valentines Day surprise. I didn't want to ask what it was.
"I don't know, it seems - "
"Weird?"
"Yeah. I just hope I have to swap a shift with someone."
"Abby, Carter, you'll put your names forward, won't you?" Susan smiled at us as we squirmed uncomfortably.
"Um, "
"Well, " She looked intently at us. I couldn't help it.
"Sure." Abby looked at me in disbelief.
"Yeah - why not?" She answered.
"Good. So, that makes," She counted and started shouting again. I hurried into the lounge, as did Abby.
"I can't believe you said yes!" I felt slightly offended.
"Why?"
"Well, it's just, not you I guess."
"You obviously don't know me," and I walked off, leaving Abby in the lounge, looking pretty gob smacked. I was almost pleased. I had done something un-me like. It felt, good. I didn't feel the posh snob I normally feel.

* Susan's POV *
"Come on guys! It won't be that bad! I know for a FACT that some of you don't have dates for Valentines Day." I looked over at John as he left the lounge. I couldn't help it. I wanted so much to be his valentine. It sounds silly, but I really like him. More than I liked Mark - I think.
"Susan? I'm not working tomorrow night." Luka
"Oh, right, um, so, you want to put your name down?"
"Yes, if that's ok?"
"Of course it is!" I smiled at him. There was something warm and friendly about Luka. "Keep tomorrow free!"
"Will do."
I felt kind of happy now - pleased that I was socialising. I felt proud of myself.

"So? When are you picking dates?"
"Now. Ready?"
"As I'll ever be," Abby replied.
"Ok everyone, the first date is.....Abby and Carter!" Oh no. That sinking feeling again. Everyone was whistling as Abby, show off that she is, kissed Carter on the cheek, he smiled. "The next date is...Pratt and Elizabeth!"
"Great," Elizabeth whispered. She sounded sarcastic.
"And the last couple is...Me and Luka." Luka smiled. My heart felt lighter.
