A/N: I'm trying to update as much as I can. I know I don't like waiting for new chapters to be uploaded to my favorite fics. I can't guarantee I can update every day, but I will try to do it as frequently as possible. I apologize for the slow update, I've been a little under the weather, but I'm right as rain now (I really wanted to say that.) Also, does anyone recognize Amelia? Yes, No, Possibly? She was pretty badass in her movie and pretty funny at times. I'm rambling. Anyway, enjoy.


The Walter Elias Psychiatric Center

(New Day)

The kitchen door swung open, Anna let out a loud sigh as she walked inside. It'd been a long tortuously slow night full of absolute nothingness. Nothing had happened all night. She hadn't expected anything crazy to happen…she didn't expect anything actually. A night full of routine checks, playing card games and reading was what she endured.

When sun rise came, she moved with a speed she never knew she possessed. After signing out on her shift she ran for the nurse's kitchen with her sights set on a hot cup of cocoa. Yes, cocoa. She had a weakness for the chocolaty drink, for all chocolate actually. So the plan was set, get in, get cocoa and get out… things did not go according to plan.

Anna walked into the kitchen and straight into another nurse. The second woman was tall, slender and had long auburn hair done up in a ponytail. She was stunning…and now covered in coffee.

"Great, guess this means I don't get my deposit back" she deadpanned flicking coffee remnants off of her hand.

The redhead went pale. "Oh my, I'm so sorry! I'm such a klutz, please let me get you something for that."

The slender woman held her hand out in protest. "Easy there kid, it's alright. Rule number one of this job, always have a spare uniform." She sat her cup down and went to was her hands.

Anna grabbed some paper towels to clean up the mess. She knelt down and began dabbing at the spill. When the other nurse turned around, she was surprised at the sight.

"Hey, don't worry about that. My coffee, my mess, let me get it."

The young redhead protested. "No, no I got it. I bumped into you; I should've been paying attention to where I was going." Anna continued to clean up the spill until it was gone. Once she finished, the older woman offered her a hand. She accepted it and was hoisted to her feet.

"I'm sorry about that again. I was rushing and being clumsy and –"

Anna was cut off. "Don't worry about it, really. It wouldn't be a normal day if something unfortunate didn't happen. Being doused by a stranger definitely constitutes as unfortunate. You must be the new girl everyone's been talking about."

The redhead blushed. Were people really talking about her? What were they saying? She could only imagine the things being said, probably talking about how clumsy she's been. Her thoughts were interrupted when the slender woman started to walk past her.

Anna rushed over to the woman. "Hey wait! I didn't get your name, I'm Anna."

The older woman looked down at the redhead. She noted that the girl was actually very cute, but at the moment she was in the way.

"The name's Megara…call me Meg. Now if you don't mind." Meg pointed to a locker behind the younger girl.

Anna quickly shuffled out of the way, allowing the curvy woman to access her locker. She removed the stained uniform she was wearing and retrieved her spare. "Thanks. So, short stack, are you heading home for the day?"

Anna nodded.

"Did you nod? If so I didn't see it."

Anna blushed. "Yeah, I just finished the night shift, which was painfully boring."

Meg slipped into her new uniform. "Yeah, the day shift is where all the excitement is." The locker door slammed shut and the auburn woman turned to her young counterpart. "The resident's get rowdy, they get emotional, chaos ensues, but whaddya gonna do right?"

"The resident's get rowdy? I find that hard to believe"

"You're new, and on the night shift. Give it some time short stack, you'll start to see some pretty interesting things around here." Meg declared.

"Interesting how?" Anna asked curiously. The auburn woman had no idea that she'd invoked the redhead's natural curiosity.

"Stick around for a while, and you'll see," she riposted.

Anna's shoulders slumped. She hated not having her questions answered. It seemed she'd simply have to wait to find out what the older woman was referring to. She noted that Meg was a bit snarky, but not unpleasant to be around.

Meg glanced at a clock on the wall. She was running late for her shift thanks to her run-in with the little redhead. At least it was only a few minutes, Mirage was strict but not unforgiving. The auburn woman decided not to press her luck. It was time to bid the girl farewell.

"Listen, I'd like to stick around and chat, honestly I would, but I've got to get going. I don't need mother hen on my case today," the slender woman stated.

Anna nodded to show she understood. "It was nice to meet you."

"Likewise short stack. It's been a real slice, see ya." With that, Meg was out the door.

Anna retrieved her belongings from her locker and decided to leave as well. She'd completely forgotten the initial reason for going to the kitchen in the first place.


Anna's Apartment

The sound of keys in the front door alerted the apartment's occupant that his roommate was back. Pushing the door open, the young redhead trekked inside. She was exhausted and just wanted to crawl into bed and forget the world. Unfortunately, it wasn't meant to be.

As soon as she stepped into the apartment she was swept into a bear hug.

"Ah! Kristoff! Put me down!" she giggled.

Her request was granted and she was returned to her feet. Her roommate, Kristoff, a burly barrel-chested blonde was grinning up a storm.

"So, how was the first day?" He questioned.

"It was…boring, and long. Did I mention it was boring?" Anna riposted.

Kristoff chuckled. "Well what did you expect on your first shift?"

"I don't know, anything! My first day had been so interesting, and then last night…ugh."

"I'm sure it wasn't all that bad," declared the burly blonde.

Anna puffed her cheeks out to show her annoyance. It was so much easier to pretend to be annoyed to admit that the blonde was right. Kristoff ignored the expression and simply waited for a response. He knew sooner or later, the red head would tell him about her day. He was right.

"It wasn't that bad…like I said, just boring. Oh but I did run into another nurse today, literally"

"You ran into another nurse?" Kristoff inquired, raising an eyebrow.

Anna gave her roommate a sheepish grin. "Yeah, I was in such a rush to get hot cocoa and come home, that I ran into her when I walked into the kitchen. I ended up spilling her coffee on her uniform. She had a spare uniform and everything, but she had to change and that made her late for her shift, so she had to go."

Kristoff nodded to show he understood. He was quite used to Anna's rambling stints, he became accustomed to following along as she spoke. He understood that when she felt the need to explain her actions, she just shot them off, leaving no room for questioning.

"So, did this nurse have a name? Better yet, did you apologize for ruining her uniform?" The boy teased.

The redhead blushed fiercely. "Yes I apologized and yes she has a name!"

"Well? I'm waiting oh clumsy one." Kristoff folded his arms.

"Her name is Meg. Actually, it's Megara, but she said to call her Meg."

"Megara huh? Sounds interesting. You're just making friends all around aren't you? Pretty soon you won't even need little ol' me anymore." Kristoff couldn't help but taunt his friend. She made it all too easy in his opinion.

Anna smiled. She knew her roommate was joking, it's how he was.

"I'll always need you goofball. You're my best friend. Besides, without you, who would I come home and tell all my interesting stories to?"

"Well, there's always Olaf." The burly blonde jabbed a thumb over his shoulder. There was an all-white cat sitting on the windowsill across the room. The cat mewed, seemingly understanding that he was being mentioned.

Anna could only laugh. "Olaf is great for talking to, but he lacks in the responding category."

"You got me there." Kristoff conceded. "So, this Meg chick. Is she nice?"

"She seems nice. Actually she seems more sarcastic than anything, but not in a mean way." Anna answered.

"That's good…I guess." He stated.

Anna let out a slight yawn. She tried to stifle it with her sleeve, but to no avail. Her companion simply smiled.

"Perhaps you should go get some rest. You do have to go back to work tonight, and I think it's frowned upon for you to get caught sleeping during your first week."

Anna nodded, silently agreeing with him. She was exhausted. Ready to call it a night….er, morning, the redhead decided to head for her room. She did have to return in several hours. And who knows, maybe things would turn out to be more interesting this time. Anything could happen, right?
