Emily has always felt the need to take care of others. She's good at it. It's her calling. Her first day at the hospital has been overwhelming so far. Nothing she learned in nursing school prepared her for this. She imagined she would become familiar with the hospital and become oriented to her new job today and learn the inner workings of the ER. That all changed when she locked eyes with a certain brunette in the ER that afternoon. The whole world stopped for a moment. Nursing school taught her how to help the sick and the injured. They taught her how to restart others hearts when they had stopped. But they did not prepare her for when her own heart stopped, just for a second, standing in the middle of the ER that day.
"Emily!" Hanna yells from an ER room. "Huh?" Emily says still in a daze. "Did you need something Han?"
Hanna pops her head out of the door and glares at Emily. "Yeah actually I'm kind of elbow deep in here with our patient and I could really use some help." Back to reality Emily runs into the room and sees Hanna sitting next to the bed of an elderly patient. Emily grabs some gloves and rushes to the other side of the bed. "Have you ever had to disimpact someone?" Emily shakes her head no and looks at Hanna who is me grinning. "Well it's your lucky day newbie!" Hanna chuckles under her breath. Hanna explains the procedure to the elderly woman and Emily simultaneously then rolls the woman towards her.
Just as Emily is about to start the procedure, there is a knock at the door. "Hello ma'am. Sorry to interrupt ladies, I am Dr. Hastings. I was just stopping by to check up on you and see what progress has been made." Hanna turns toward the doctor, "We were just about to get started. I'm breaking in the new girl today." Hanna gestures towards Emily. "So, I see." Spencer looks at Emily and flashes a brilliant smile. Emily's knees buckle slightly at that moment, but it seems to go unnoticed by everyone in the room. "I'll leave you to it then, it seems you are in very capable hands Mrs. Miller. I'll be back later to check in." Spencer says while headed toward the door. As she grabs the door handle Spencer turns around and looks at Emily. "I'm Spencer by the way. I'm sure we'll be seeing a lot more of each other around here, I hope." She adds. Smiling widely all Emily can do is nod at the beautiful woman leaving the room. She tries to speak but cannot seem to form a single word. She is finally brought back to reality by Hanna saying her name repeatedly. When Emily looks in Hanna's direction, the blonde has a smirk on her face and is trying to suppress laughter. "What?" Emily questions. "Oh nothing." Hanna says. Emily can tell by the look Hanna is giving her that she can see right through her. She is definitely excited about her new job, but she is absolutely terrified of the thought of losing her heart to the beautiful doctor who just walked out the door.
