A/N : So.. yeah. Haha. This is the new 'Tainted Love' I really got confused on what I did. Seriously, I know you guys were confused too. Admit it! So this is the 'non-confusing' or 'scratching the head while saying WHAT THE HELL JUST HAPPENED' story. Haha. This a short chapter. Tell me if I should continue this or Tainted Love or both. :)) And seriously please tell me if you guys are confused. :D
Calliope Torres was a newly appointed attending in Seattle Grace Mercy West Hospital. She was one of the best Orthopedic Surgeons in the state. She loved her job. The rush she would get when she was in surgery gives her the drive to go back to work on the next day. And of course, she did this for the families, friends and loved ones that she gets to see all happy after a successful surgery. It was like lifting a huge burden off of their shoulders.
The chief once said to all the doctors to not get attached, but who wouldn't right? It was nice to know your patients besides his or her medical reports. She got easily attached before and nothing bad happened. In fact, it was the opposite. She got more motivated to help her patient out and always made her happy when she hears the Thank You's from the family.. but all those thoughts died today.. along with her patient that she so happened to get attached with.
"Time of death, 12:15am," Callie stated while walking towards the door. Everyone in the OR soon followed. It was a sad day for Seattle. There was a bus full of tourists who crashed with another tourist bus this morning. Many people died today and only a few lived. It was indeed, a sad day in Seattle.
"Bad day huh?" Mark Sloan, one of the most highly-regarded plastic surgeons on the East Coast with a thriving private practice, said the minute Callie got out of the OR.
"Yeah, it is." Callie replied back.
"You up for Joe's tonight?" Mark asked while they were walking to the resident lounge. It was rather late but what the heck, they had a long day.
"Actually, yeah, I think I need a drink or ten," Callie said, facing Mark with a sad smile.
"Woah, gimme a real smile Cal, you look.. old?" Mark joked and headed outside the door to let Callie change. They have seen each other naked before but still, he liked Lexie Grey now. He would be faithful. Not like he isn't.
Callie shook her head in mild amusement. The smile that formed on her lips slowly faded when she remembered what happened today. Letting out a small sigh, she started changing. Soon after, she walked out with her bag and went to Mark. They shortly headed out and went to Joe's. It was a silent car ride to Joe's.
They reached Joe's in record time and if I must say, it was packed. Meredith Grey, a surgical resident in Seattle Grace Mercy West hospital, was seated next to her newly wedded (post-it) husband, Derek Shepherd, who is currently the Chief of Surgery. They were seated together in one of the tables. Sitting in front of them was, Cristina Yang, also a surgical resident and former roommate of Callie. Sitting with her was Owen Hunt, an attending trauma surgeon major. They were all laughing when Callie and Mark came in.
Lexie Grey, a surgical intern and Mark's recent love affair, was with Teddy Altman, an Attending Cardiothoracic Surgeon. They were both seated on a table somewhat close to Meredith's table. When they all noticed Callie and Mark standing in the middle of the room, they all waved at the both of them. Cristina gestured them to sit with the group.
"So this day pretty much sucked," Cristina stated. Everyone nodded.
"It was! I lost 3 people today! I hate this," Lexie agreed.
"It's just another day, it'll be better tomorrow," Owen said with a small smile. Meredith and Derek just mimicked his smile. It was a sad day but like Owen said, it's not the end. Before Cristina could say 'What does that supposed to mean?' Joe interrupted her.
"Ladies and gentlemen! We have a performer for you guys, so be nice!" Joe smiled from the mini stage. He seemed to have gotten everyone's attention because everyone was looking at him, waiting for the so called performer. It was one of those rare nights when someone would sing something. And like tonight, it was definitely rare.
Callie faced the stage and waited along with the crowd. She was about to order a drink when her phone rang. The group faced her and she politely told them if she could be excused. Standing up from her chair she went outside and answered.
"Hello?" Callie answered with her cell phone in between her shoulder and her left ear while her right hand pushed the door open.
"Callie," the slightly muffled voice replied causing Callie's eyes to widen and then a vicious glare was prominent in her eyes now.
"Oh, hey. It has been so long!" sarcasm laced with her voice.
"I'm sorry okay? C'mon. Just give me another chance," the person pleaded.
"You know what? I'm done," then Callie hanged up and switched her phone off. She took slow deep breaths, preparing herself before going back in.
"This is gonna be awesome, I promise!"
The most angelic cheery voice invaded her ears. She stopped mid track. Callie slowly turned towards the source of that soft voice. Her breathing hitched and her heart skipped a beat at the sight. There standing on the mini stage, was an incredibly beautiful woman with blonde hair and mesmerizing blue eyes. She was gorgeous! 'Okay Callie, breathe.. breathe.. there,' and when she thought her breathing was under control and she could go back to her seat, the blonde met her gaze. Her eyes widened a little then softly went to a more teasing gaze. Blue eyes met brown eyes in an intimate embrace. 'This was going to be a long night..'
A/N : Sooo? Confusing? Yes? No? Does it suck? Is it weird? Tell me? :)) The next chapter would be longer I promise. Any.. REVIEW PUHLEASE. :D
