Hey guys! This is my first post/story :) I am working on English, it is mainly the contractions, tenses, and colons that get me... Please review and enjoy!
Chloe Beale entered the hospital where she worked. "Hey Chloe!" a voice called out to her. The redhead turned to face Dr. Aubrey Posen. "Here, I got you your usual... Can't have you snapping at our patients this early in the morning." Aubrey said, handing her the cup of coffee she was holding. "Thanks. Hows your shift been?" Chloe asked taking a sip. "Its been smooth sailing, no major incidents." Dr. Posen replied, yawning. *Beep Beep* "Thats me",Chloe said, looking down at her pager. "See you at break", she called to Aubrey as she headed to her patient.
Chloe knocked on her patients door and entered. "I'm fine, can I go now?" a small brunette, sitting at the edge of the crisp white bed, asked annoyed. "Whoa there, slow down. Let me look at your file." Chloe chuckled, picking up the information chart. "I see that you need stitches on your head, even without looking at these notes. Care to explain?" Chloe said, looking up from her notes at the brunette.
"Training exercise." The brunette said flatly looking down at her feet. "Got beat by some private." Chloe noticed her blush and didn't want to make her feel any worse. "Lets get you squared away." Chloe smiled brightly, leaving to get her equipment. The brunette felt badly for being so cold towards this nice, and very beautiful woman. The beautiful redhead came back into the room, changing the atmosphere of the pale room into something more amazing. "Excuse me Dr.-" the brunette started before being cut of, "Please call me Chloe." she replied. "Chloe, sorry for being rude earlier. I'm Beca." The brunette mumbled, obviously showing nervousness.
Oh my gosh, she is so adorable... Chloe couldn't help think... Pull it together Chlo, this is a patient! Chloe pulled her chair towards the hospital bed Beca was seated on and motioned for her to lie down. "So, Beca. Tell me about yourself." Chloe asked curiously, she wanted to know more about this mysterious girl. "Not much to tell," Chloe raised her eyebrow at this. "What?" Beca asked furrowing her brow. That is really cute. "Nothing." Chloe smiled to herself, as Beca continued "I joined the army, just under a year ago, and... I spend all of my time on base training and other doing exercises." Beca said wincing as Chloe finished stitching her up. The redhead's cerulean eyes met Beca's navy blue eyes and they were dumbfounded. "There you go! You see, that wasn't so hard was it?" Chloe smiled, shaking herself from their haze. "Thanks," Beca mumbled, still gathering her wits. Chloe was at the door when Beca mustered the courage to say "Hey Chloe?" the red head turned around to face Beca, "Would you like to, uh, would you like to go for lunch sometime?" Beca asked nervously. Chloe immediately perked up and said "Definitely! I'll leave my number!" Beca let out a sigh of relief, excited to be able to see that gorgeous face again.
Chloe couldn't contain her excitement and was buzzing with joy. Not that she didn't do that already, but these things her best friend caught on to immediately. She wasn't even in the break room for thirty seconds when Aubrey came up to her, eyebrows raised. "So- whats got you excited? And don't try to deny it..." Aubrey accused. "I think Im in love." Chloe smiled. "What? With who?" "Beca Mitchell..." "...Ok..." is all Aubrey could say... "Is she a patient of yours?" she asked, obviously knowing the answer. Chloe nodded "And she asked me out on a date!"
"You barely even know this girl. I think its great that you're open to a relationship, especially after Tom", Aubrey said while sitting on the couch, nursing a cup of coffee, "but don't you think it's too soon?"
Chloe looks over at Aubrey, while pouring her a cup of coffee. "It's been over two months, Aubrey. That's plenty of time to get over that jerk. I just want to be happy, Aubs." Chloe walks over to couch and sits down next to Aubrey. "I know. I just don't want you getting hurt again." They sit in silence, with the red head lying against the blonde, sipping their coffees, enjoying their friendship.
