New in town
The sharp thrill of my pager woke me out of my peaceful slumber. Grounding me into reality. I groaned and sat up on my couch looking around for my shoes. My office was small, yet elegant and bigger than the others, but I liked it that way. I found my shoes and slipped them on just before a sharp knock came from outside my door. I pulled it open to come face to face with my secretary, Lily. Lily was small in size yet big and powerful on the inside, almost like a puppy. She has big brown eyes that twinkle with excited almost 24/7. She was soft but lean, due to her size, her long black hair shining naturally, cascading down her back ending at the middle of her back. She was in all intent and purposes my best friend.
"Jeez, you look like the dead", she scolded, straightening out my clothes. I rolled my eyes at her in annoyance, yet I couldn't but smile at her babbling. She had most likely been up all night finishing my paperwork for me while I slept.
" Then again you did have 2 heart surgeries, 3 lung transplants and, of course being the loving person you are, took 4 rounds for people who didn't even turn up..." I interrupted then, otherwise she probably would never have stopped.
"Lily!" I called over her successfully scaring to silence, I took advantage.
"Sorry, but why are you here again?" I asked stifling a yawn and stretching my arms over my head.
"Oh", she said, her eyes twinkling with the gossip she was about to rain on me.
"Well, you have a meeting with Dr, Green, and your rounds but that's not it", by the end she was jumping on the spot, "there's a doctor in town and he's working here, apparently attending your meeting, you lucky dog. From the nurses who saw him moving his stuff in, he is the most handsome guy they've ever seen." She finally finished coming out of her trance. She frowned when she realised I was smiling at her.
"What?"
"Your quite the gossiper, you are" I said taking the forgotten folder from her hands.
She raised her eyebrows and put her hands on her hips.
"You know I can't help it" she accused.
I just laughed, thanking her and walking in the direction of the meeting. I looked into the folder, in my hand but came to a halt when I realised what was in the folder. It was a man. A very handsome man. I couldn't help but shake my head and laugh. Lily was surely something. I continued on for my meeting. Where I would, apparently meet Dr. Carlisle Cullen.
