A/N: this takes place in 2006 after Sam and Jason broke up because Sam was shot, she had slept with Ric and Jason saw it but he did not sleep with Liz and Sam did not know that Jason saw her and Ric.
CHAPTER ONE
Robin and Brenda was talking about the Nurse's Balls of past years and decided to have it again to raise money for the Stone Cates AIDS wing. Alan had told Robin that he might have to let some of the people go because money is short. Robin and Brenda decided to host the Nurse's Ball bringing it back again.
Robin called Lucy and she said she would be happy to host the Nurse's Ball. She loved the idea of bringing it back.
Brenda was going to fly in with Aiden in a couple weeks to help but for now Robin needed to get the funding for the ball. She was going to go see Sonny, Jax, Jason, the Quartermaine's and Nik to help her and Brenda with funding. Brenda and hers companies was also going to put money in and donate the outfits for Lucy that way the Ball wouldn't cost anyone very much. She needed to talk to Alan about this. She was tired so she decided to go to bed.
The next morning she got ready for her day and went to GH to see Alan. She knocked on his door and he opened it seeing it was Robin and he said, "Just the person who I was looking for. I told Epiphany that you were to come to my office right away. The hospital board wants to talk to you. It's nothing bad, I promise."
"Okay, I haven't signed in yet so I didn't know Epiphany was supposed to tell me to come to your office. I came to talk to you about something else but it can wait until afterward, but I need a minute of your time later."
"Okay, let's go." Robin and Alan walk to the boardroom and Alan opens the door for her and she takes a seat next to Alan because next to him is the only seat available. She takes her seat and wonders what is going on. She didn't have to wait long to find out.
"Dr. Scorpio, your record since you have been at GH is impressive. You have been a great asset to General Hospital this last year and a half. You have brought in grants to the hospital that we needed with your research. Dr. Alan Quartermaine is stepping down as Chief of Staff and does not want to be Co-Chief of Staff either and even though you have only been here a year and a half we want to offer you the position of Chief of Staff. Will you accept the position?" Edward said.
A shocked Robin says looking at Alan who nods his head, "Yes I will accept the position,"
"Good now who do you want to be your Co-Chief of Staff? Do you need time to think about that or do you know?" Nik asked.
Robin takes a moment to think about it and said "Yes, I would like Dr. Monica Quartermaine to be my Co-Chief of Staff.
"Dr. Monica Quartermaine will you accept this position?" Nik asked.
Monica looks at Alan and Robin and says "Yes, I will accept the position."
"Good, now we are moving where the Chief and Co-Chief offices are. Robin and Monica will be able to furnish these offices however you want. Now does either of you want to say something or ask the board anything?"
"Yes, I would like to bring back the Nurse's Ball." Robin said.
The board thinks about this and Nik said "Does anyone have an objection to this. Bringing back the Nurses Ball?"
Carly said "I have a question. How are you going to pay for it?"
"Brenda Barrett and I are going to put some money from our companies in and we will also be donating the dresses for Lucy to wear and if Nik, Edward and the Quartermaine's along with Jax, Sonny Corinthos, and Jason Morgan donate to having it, it won't cost anyone a huge amount of money."
Edward says "The Quartermaine's will help pay for the Ball. Just tell me how much you need and you will have it."
Nik speaks up next. "Same goes for me just tell me how much you need from me."
Jax looks at Carly who nods her head. "Carly and I will help in any way we can."
Sonny says, "I will help and I am sure Jason will too. So funding won't be a problem."
Carly said, "Well then it looks like that the Nurse's Ball is back. I have no objections to bringing it back. One other question though. Are you going to be able to continue the research you do as Chief of Staff?"
"Yes, I will be continuing my research but the running of the lab I am promoting my assistant Kavi to run the lab."
"Good. I have no other questions." Carly said. Sonny and Jax are proud of Carly because she hated Robin. Maybe she had grown up some.
With that the meeting was adjourned.
Everyone comes up to Robin and congratulates her. Even Carly comes up to congratulate her and she doesn't make any nasty remarks to her.
