Authors Notes at the end.
I'm over him. I don't know why he is on my mind now. Constantly. It took me so long to get him out of my head. But I am happy now. I don't need this. So get out of my head! I thought that if I screamed it in my head it would work. Apparently not. He's still there.
Let's be honest here. I do know why he is taking up space in my head again. I saw him and her together. It's not like they were doing anything, it's just that they were talking outside in the ambulance bay. Seems innocent enough right? Well, the problem is that I know him. I know his body language, his laugh, the look in his eyes. He is starting something with her. He has feelings for her.
Ok. I've admitted it now, and supposedly admission is the first step to recovery, right? I should know these things. But, unfortunately they don't have AA for ex-boyfriend obsession. You know I could start my own group. I could call it ExBO. That kind of has a ring to it. I'm sure there are plenty of people out there that have been dumped and have the unfortunate pleasure of watching their ex move on, and then move on again! Right?
Uh oh. I'm rambling in my head again. That cannot be good. I've got to stop this right now. I am going to think of anything but him right now. Let's see, what can I think about....I win the lottery and I don't have to work at this hell hole anymore. Ooh, that's good. I'll be so rich and buy myself a sports car and a big mansion, bigger than his mansion, and.... Wait! No! There he is again! Ugh!
"Abby."
I turn around at the sound of my name being called. Finally a distraction.
"Yeah?"
"Multiple trauma, we need you, ETA 4 minutes!" Sam turns around and disappears out of the lounge.
Saved by the trauma. At least when I am busy he can't occupy my thoughts. But he'll still be there, lurking in the back of my mind. Just when I think he is gone for good. Poof, there he is again. Just like magic.
I shake my head and smile to myself. I have got to get out more. Note to self: go on a date. It doesn't matter who, just get out more.
With that I take a deep breath and exit the lounge behind Sam.
It is short, but it is meant to be just an introduction. More to follow if you like. Let me know....see that little button down there...no really the one on the bottom left. Anyway, I would love to here what you think! Thanks.
