December shook her head and wiped the sweat that was running down her forehead as she was painting her home. Taking a deep breath as she stepped back she looked at the home she purchased a few months ago realize that she had come a long way from when she brought it. She knew it was a fixer upper but she didn't mind, she loved a good challenge.
"You do realize that it's 5 am in the morning right?"
Jumping at the sound of the voice, December turned around to see her best friend/room mate Alexis standing on the porch holding two cups of steaming hot cups of something.
"Yes I am aware of that Alexis." December said putting down the paint brush onto the can. "I wanted to get a head start before it got to hot during the day to do anything." She added.
"Uh huh, is that the only reason?" Alexis asked as she handed her friend the cup from her hand. "It's hot chocolate." She added.
December smiled and took a sip as she sat down on the steps. Alexis looked at her friend with a concerned look on her face.
"How come I've got a feeling that this might have to do with a certain blonde hair blue eyed man?" Alexis said as she joined her friend on the steps.
"It has nothing to do with Adam." December said shaking her head. "I just wanted to get somethings done before it was too hot that's all." She added.
Alexis nodded her head and stared forward into the darkness, taking a deep breath she just shook her head knowing that December was too stubborn to admit her feelings.
"Alexis I promise you that it doesn't." December said putting her cup on the porch behind her.
"If it had nothing to do with him, why are you wearing his shirt and smelling like him?" Alexis asked looking at her. "Your missing him aren't you?" She added.
December shook her head as her friend just looked at her.
"It's ok to miss somebody December, it's life it's calling being human." Alexis said standing up as December pushed her self up and away from the steps.
"I do not miss that man who screwed up my life." December said turning around standing on the concrete path in the light. "He was the one who slept around with the two bit sluts that he works with. I was the one who was left to pick up the pieces to explain to everybody why we weren't together. I do not miss that sorry asshole by any means." She added.
Alexis just stared at her friend who was now breaking down after months of holding things in.
"He was one the who break up our marriage not me." December said as Alexis just listened without saying a word. "I had offers to sleep with his damn friends Alexis, but I never took them. I always turned them down because I was married to Adam. I don't regret the choices of not doing it. BUT I do regret ever getting drunk that night and marrying a damn fool." She added.
December shook her head at the memories that seemed to be forming in her head.
"It's ok, let it out." Alexis said looking at her. "We are in the middle of no where nobody can hear you so by god scream if you have to." She added.
December laughed a little bit causing Alexis to smile.
"Honestly Alexis, I am keeping my self busy to keep from thinking." December said looking at her. "I need to get ready for work actually because I've got to be there in about an hour." She added.
"Did you get any sleep?" Alexis asked looking at her.
"Yes mom I did." December said as the room mates walked into the house. " Dr. Youngblood today seems to want to make sure that I keep busy with the patients up front as well making runs to the back to check on the patients after they are done with the surgery." She added.
Alexis laughed a little bit as they walked into the kitchen. December looked at Alexis who was standing there with a smile on her face.
"How can you be so happy when you've been through so much?" December asked out of the blue causing Alexis to look at her. "I didn't mean it like that, I mean after the neck injury you had in the ring and then the battle with cancer you had. How do you do it?" She added.
"With help of friends who are always there no matter what." Alexis said smiling as December was now staring at her. "Having a bit of faith doesn't hurt either. Sometimes it's hard but it gets easier with time. I may have not been married but I do know what it's like to love and lose that one thing to hold onto." She added.
December just stared as Alexis put their cups in the sink.
"Go get ready for work Dec, I promise there will be more of our little stories and bipolar moments." Alexis said causing her friend to laugh.
"Alright, if you aren't up when I leave remember that you've got a doctor's appointment to check out your neck." December said smiling "Which means you will be coming by and seeing me." She added.
"Ok mom." Alexis said rolling her eyes.
December laughed as she disappeared down the hallway leaving her room mate alone standing in the kitchen. Alexis quickly washed the cups and put them in the drainer as her cat jumped onto the counter top.
"You hungry Sammy?" Alexis said as the cat was purring at her touch.
Sammy let out a meow as she grabbed his bowl from the floor. Alexis laughed as he hopped down and followed her into the small closet.
"You are one spoiled little cat." Alexis said putting food into the bowl and putting it back in it's place beside the counter.
Alexis turned the lights off and walked back into her room leaving it open just a bit for her small cat to come in if need be.
"Where did you go?"
"December was outside at this godly hour painting the house and dealing with issues." Alexis said climbing back into her bed. "So don't worry Cena, your bed buddy is back." She added.
Laughing a little bit as she snuggled closer to his body.
December closed the door of her bathroom and looked in the mirror at the mess in front of her. Looking down at the sink she started the water letting it get warm.
"You don't need to let him get you worked up." December said taking a wash cloth and cleaning the dirt from her face along with a few pieces of paint.
Turning the water off she looked around the bathroom and grabbed her scrubs from the closet and quickly started taking a shower to get ready.
~*Work*~
December put the chart in the holder outside of the door and turned around to grab another chart from the other charge nurse.
"Are you free for lunch?"
December turned around to see a older gentlemen sitting in a wheel chair staring at her.
"Sorry Mr. Daniels but I'm not today but maybe tomorrow." December said kissing his cheek.
"Ok dear." Mr. Daniels said with a smile.
December smiled as the nurse pushing him wheeled him past her. She smiled brightly at him as he disappeared down the long hallway.
"You know that sometimes you are too nice for your own good."
Closely her eyes she took a deep breath and turned around to meet the face of the voice behind her.
"And sometimes you are too much of a slut to realize what a asshole you really are." December said staring at the man she was mist of a divorce with.
Adam gave her a smile as she rolled her eyes.
"Adam, I'm at work what are you doing here?" December said turning her attention to him.
"Well for one, I am here to see Doctor Youngblood for my check up I'm suppose to get every year." Adam said as she looked at him. "Plus I was hoping to talk to you." He added.
December just turned around and walked away hoping he wouldn't follow her. Adam looked at the nurse beside him as she stared at him.
"What?" Adam said looking at her.
Without waiting for a reply he jogged to catch up with estranged wife. December smiled at the nurse then frowned as she noticed him walking towards her.
"December please." Adam said looking at her grabbing a hold of her wrist as she turned to leave.
December looked down at her hand then up at him as she pulled her arm away.
"Hey Jackie, can you please pull me Mr. Adam Copeland's file please." December said as the nurse behind the desk quickly went to get the file.
"Dec please." Adam said as December just waited for Jackie.
Jackie quickly returned and handed the file to December who opened it and looked through it for a second. She looked up at her estranged husband and nodded.
"Alright Mr. Copeland, since you are due to have a check up today with Dr. Youngblood you will called back when we are ready for you." December said as he just stared at her. "Until then please have a seat in the waiting room and one of the nurses will be with you shortly." She added.
She kept her chart in her arms as the other nurse Jackie walked around the desk.
"Please come with this way Mr. Copeland." Jackie said as Adam just walked away shaking his head.
December let the breath she had been holding out as her coworker Janice walked up.
"Isn't that your husband?" Janice asked looking at her.
"My soon to be ex husband actually." December said nodding at her. "I've got to make my rounds to check on the patients and I'll be back to put him in a room. Til then who ever wants to call his name don't let them because it's better if he waits." She added.
Janice shook her head at her friend an nodded as December walked off leaving her at the desk alone.
