Author's Note: Hey Everyone! Wow! Thank you for your awesome reviews! And so fast! When I wrote in other fandom's (ie NCIS) I didn't never even got that many reviews/ chapter once!
So, I like to thank all my reviewers individually, so I hope you don't mind, this will be long :P But you can of course skip over it unless your name appears on the list :P
notawriter: Hey thank you for your review! Sorry I didn't really mention that… She found them in her coat pocket :P I guess I just thought that and forgot to write it :P I'm going to go back and reread my first chapter again, then I'm going to fix up little mistakes like that. :) Thanks for mentioning it :)
writing27: Thanks for the review! Updating the next day… My wish is your command :P
shutterloubug: Thanks for reviewing! I can't wait to see where I end up taking it either… :P
LegaspiWeaver: How is the next day for ASAP? Lol, thank you for reviewing and I hope you like this chapter too :)
StarletOfTheForest: Don't you hate when you read a good story and then you find out it's a one shot? I HATE that :P But mines not :P So I hope you like this! And thank you for reviewing!
Melody Elliot: I just think by the way her character talked to Sloan in that one episode… jeez I can't remember what she said… but anyways, I just have a feeling this is her first. :) Thank you for reviewing and I read your story, LOVED it. I can't remember if I reviewed or not… I have a bad habit of forgetting to review :P
Milla-aa: Thank you! I'm glad you liked it! I have quite a few of these chapters writing… up to…. Seven? Maybe? So I might be updating a lot :)
Jackie: I know exactly what you mean. I know she's seems a bit OOC, but… it's new for her and I think that if I'm right in my interpretation and she has never slept with another woman, then it would be really scary to suddenly have feelings for one. Sigh TURST me on this one….So hopefully I get my Erica back in character :) Thank you for reviewing, I'm glad you like it!
Gems: Yay! You were my FIRST reviewer! So you totally made my day, just to let you know :P I viewed them both as straight before too :) This is pretty fast for an update? Is it not? And I'm glad you liked it and thank you so much for reviewing!
And Without Further Ado!

Chapter Two: Tell Me We Belong Together
"Miranda, what's going on?" I asked, already dressed and ready.
"Two busses crashed. Everyone's been called in. We're expecting our first group of people any minute now." She answered.
Erica came up behind me and my stomach did a back flip. Miranda explained to her what was going on and told her to be ready for surgery.
There were junior residents and interns everywhere. All the interns looked excited and nervous. I don't miss those days…
Finally the ambulances arrived, and there was a mad rush of interns to get the best patients. I just stood back until I was needed. I had too much on my mind to worry about getting the best patients. Plus I am the best in Orthopaedics; anything good was going to come through me.
Before I knew it there was a man who broke both his legs and a little girl who had completely mangled her arm.
I was at the hospital the rest of the night and all the next day before I even got a break. The first chance I got, I slipped into an on-call room to get some sleep. I'd been up over 48 hours and I was exhausted.
I didn't lock the door, and I fell asleep within minutes. I don't know how long I had been sleeping, but all of a sudden I felt someone slip into bed beside me.
"Hello baby," I heard a man say.
I shot up in bed and saw it was Mark Sloan in bed beside me. "What are you doing here?" I asked, startled.
"I just wanted to ask you how things were going with you an Erica." He grinned.
"Then why did you climb into bed with me?"
"Oh so you don't want to have a threesome?" He joked.
"Mark!" I hit him and pushed him out of the bed.
"What?"
"You're such a pig."
He just laughed.
"What happened to growing?" I asked him.
He just waved it off and left the room.
A few minutes later, I heard someone else enter the room.
"Mark, if that is you again, I swear…"
"Mark told me you were here and wanted to see me."
"Erica." I sat up again and kissed her. I heard her lock the door behind her.
She laid down in the bed beside me and wrapped her arms around me. She kissed the side of my head. "I've missed you."
"I've missed you, too." I told her honestly.
Within minutes we were both sound asleep, tangled in each others limbs.

I woke up and Erica was gone. Had it just been a dream? I looked at my watch. I had been sleeping for over three hours and no one had woken me up. I better go check up on my patients.
I turned on the light in the on-call room and I saw that Erica had left a note on the door.
It read:
Callie,
Sorry I had to leave without saying goodbye. I was paged and I didn't want to wake you up. I think I'll be going home tonight, meet me there?
- Erica
I smiled as I read the note and slipped it into my pocket before going to check on my patients.

"Callie it's 9 o'clock. You've been here for over 60 hours! Go home. Shower. Get something to eat." Miranda was yelling at me.
"I just need to finish this paper work." I told her. "Then I'll leave."
"You can do it later! Go." She gave me the stare. "And the chief told me to tell you to take tomorrow off. You've been way overworked these past few days. Get some rest." She turned and walked away from me.
I climbed into my car and started it up. Almost falling asleep at the wheel, I wasn't so sure I should be driving. I took a sip of the cold coffee that had been sitting in my car for the past three days and decided to take the chance.
I drove the half hour to Erica's house and opened the door. She must be home, because she had left it unlocked. I didn't want to wake her if she was sleeping.
I tiptoed up the stairs and peeked into her bedroom. She was fast asleep. Her hair was still wet, so I guessed she had already showered. She was wearing a pair of purple, silk pajama pants and a white tank top. She looked so beautiful, so peaceful.
I felt a little bit awkward being in her house when she was sleeping. I mean I had only been there once before. But I didn't want to wake her up, so I searched around for a closet. It wasn't long before I found one, and a clean towel. I slipped into the bathroom and had a quick shower.
On the other side of the bathroom was a small guest bedroom. I climbed into the made bed and drifted off to sleep.
I woke up the next morning to the smell of coffee and pancakes. I slipped out of bed and down to the kitchen where I found Erica making breakfast.
"Hey you," She smiled when I came down the stairs. "I saw that you were here, so I thought I'd make you some breakfast.
"Thank you." I told her, kissing her and sitting down at the table. I yawned and she passed me a cup of coffee.
"It's been a long few days, hasn't it?"
"Tell me about it." I told her, taking another sip of the coffee.
"These should be done right away." She told me, gesturing at the pancakes.
She put the pancakes onto a plate. "What do you want on them?" She asked me.
"Maple syrup?"
"Sure." She grabbed the maple syrup from the cupboard and sat down at the table with me.
"These are delicious!" I told her, taking a bite. "I didn't know you could cook."
"There's a lot about me you don't know." She told me.
"But we have plenty of time to figure it all out." I smiled and she smiled back at me.
"So you're really ready for this?" She asked me. "I can be quite a handful."
"I'm ready." I told her and kissed her. The kiss deepened and my hand landed tenderly on her breast. She moaned a little when I slipped my tongue into her mouth.

Please review! I love them!
BTW, does anyone know why keeps repeating the first line whenever you upload? Or is it just doing that for me?
