This is my first fanfiction, intended to be multi-chapter but I don't know how regularly I'll be able to update it. Constructive criticism welcome :)


Ollie

I was in the locker room after surgery, changing into my clothes. Jonny was standing at his locker.

"Ow is that a bite mark?" he asked, tilting his head.

"I..er..." I mumbled pulling my shirt on and covering up the mark on my shoulder.

He laughed. "Tara doesn't strike me as the aggressive type. Aw young love" He walked out of the room grinning.

Damn, I thought. I hope he doesn't say something to Tara. See, the truth was I had been with another woman last night. She had been avoiding me all morning, which was OK because 1) I had no idea what I was going to say and 2) I hadn't finished her paperwork. Seeing as Jac couldn't avoid me all day, I decided I'd better start that paperwork before she was forced to face me.

Jac

Bed 8 possible calcified arteries, I'll need to cut though the- who am I kidding? Like my mind was on surgery right now or could be trusted to stay there.

I didn't know what happened. I had had a fight with Jonny, not our first but that must have been the reason, or at least the thing that kicked it off. Somehow I ended up at Valentine's flat. I still don't know what led me there, I could have just as easily evaded Jonny at a cafe or something. I can remember Ollie standing in the doorway in a t-shirt and boxers, with a slightly bewildered expression on his face. Who could blame him? I was quite shocked myself. I had managed to not bump into him this morning but I don't think he wanted to be found to be honest.

I walked into my office needing to speak to Elliot. Instead I found Valentine sitting at my desk. I stood frozen for a second before he noticed I was here and looked up.

"I am pretty sure I asked you to do that paperwork yesterday. And barring stopping a nuclear apocalypse I can't see any reason why you haven't done it yet." I said.

"I'm nearly finished. At this rate I might even get promoted to Imelda's paperwork." he replied.

"Ha. You wish." I put the file I was carrying down on Elliot's messy desk so he could read it later. "And when you've finished that I have a case for you and if you sort the patient out by four I might even let you assist an operation."

"Ok." His bright blue eyes met mine.

Ollie

I watched as she walked out of her office. I sighed. I don't know what I was expecting. It's not like it meant anything last night. She was just looking for comfort and now we would go back to our normal lives. Whatever, she was way out of my league anyway. I knew she had been using me but my usually rational self seemed to disappear when she turned up at my doorstep. Oh well I could never have a real relationship with her anyway. No, I wasn't convincing myself at all.
