Open Heart Surgery
Gabriella is an intern. Troy is an attending. Rules say they should never be together? But will that stop them?
Bold is what they are saying. Un bold is what they are thinking.
Chapter 4
"Where you with someone last night?" asks Gary
"I was at the hospital I had to stay late," replies Gabriella "Yes I with Dr Bolton," she thinks
"Cuz I swore I smelt cologne on you when you came in," accuses Gary
"There are a lot of male doctors, visitors, patients rushing round you bump into people," lies Gabriella "Troy hugged me,"
"And I smelt alcohol tasted it when you kissed me," says Gary
"I went across to the bar with a few other interns," says Gabriella "With Troy,"
"No guys?" asks Gary
"No guys just a couple girls," replies Gabriella "Troy no one else,"
"Why are you lying?" asks Gary
"If you know I'm lying why are you asking me?" asks Gabriella
"So you admit your lying?" asks Gary
"I'm not lying," says Gabriella
"So why did Tyler phone me last night and ask if we had broken up cuz you were in Mac's with another bloke," says Gary
"Dr Bolton asked me for a drink after a very successful surgery," says Gabriella
"And you accepted," says Gary
"Yes I did I had a couple of drinks and came home. Nothing happen almost half the hospital staff were there they'll vouch besides there are rules about that sort of thing," says Gabriella "Not that everyone abides by them,
"Not again do you hear me," shouts Gary
Gabriella nods and the finds herself against the wall.
"I said do you hear me," shouts Gary
"Yes," says Gabriella
And with that Gary turns and drops her to the floor.
"I'm out late with the guys tonight," says Gary
"I'm on call. I'll sleep at the hospital and see you on Thursday," says Gabriella
"Your working today, tonight, tomorrow and tomorrow night," says Gary
"Yes and off Thursday barring any 911 traumas," says Gabriella
Gary nods.
"And crap I gotta go or Dr Zelman will rip into me again," says Gabriella
"I'd give you a lift but I'm going out," says Gary
"Do you delight in my distress?" asks Gabriella
"As a matter of fact I do," says Gary "See ya," he adds turning to leave
"Bastard," mutters Gabriella
"What did you say?" asks Gary wheeling round
"Nothing," says Gabriella
Gary slaps her across the face, taking her purse at the same time.
"I think you can walk today. See you Thursday," he smiles before leaving the flat.
Gabriella quickly covers the red mark on her face, which will turn into a bruise.
Grabs her bags and hightails it down the road towards the hospital.
She is only minutes late but gets ripped into by Dr Zelman and is put on scut duty. Which means any sutures, rectal exams and any other small task that Dr Zelman doesn't want to do is Gabriella's with out questions.
Gabriella can see herself missing lunch, quiet possibly tea. She has money in her locker for when Gary takes her purse which is frequent.
She doesn't like what her relationship with Gary has turned into but her parents approve, he provides for her, he provides a roof over her head and she used to love him but now, now she was just there for his pleasure for sex and to show off. And as of late she was his punching bag.
