Finally! One on a jealous Carlisle and slightly uncomfortable Esme! Oh, disclaimer's still the same as you all know.
Carlisle's POV
I started off my day by getting up, kissing Esme outside the house, and driving my car to the hospital with a wave of goodbye from Esme. Hopefully, time made girls oblivious to appearances. That was too much to wish for. I sighed as I pulled up to the Forks Hospital parking lot. The interns were here. Great. I grabbed the box of my things to put in my office and stepped outside of the car.
I quickly dodged and hid my face from the people that were also headed toward the hospital. After all, if I was going to be advanced on by the nurses and interns, I might as well try to push it back as far as I could. I entered the hospital and I smelled blood in the air. Oh, I felt bad for the person. I checked in with one of the male nurses, who's name was John. I introduced myself and John showed me my office. I thanked him and entered the room, locking the door. Whew, at least that went extremely well! I set up my office quickly, eager to get to work. Pictures of Esme were everywhere. I looked around the room. I was pleased how the room really seemed to show that I was happily married and was not single.
Straightening myself up, I stepped toward the door only to hear a group of women gathering outside my door. I began to feel a little panicky when I heard the women whisper.
"Is that the new doctor? Is he single? Is he hot? Ohmigod! I so want to see him!"
"So, this guy comes out of his silver Mercedes," oohs come out from the women's mouths. "And he's carrying this big box and he's running and dodging me and my peers." I grimaced as I thought of what it may have looked like to these women. Strong and quick. Ugh. "Suddenly, I saw this guy's face as he tried to pass me! He obviously didn't realize it but it was the most beautiful face I'd ever seen. His eyes are just bea-u-tiful!" sang the woman speaking. Dang. She'd seen me! I decided to get this over with. I opened the door wide so the women could see Esme, my wife, and was surprised to see how many women there were. They were blushing red. Obviously embarrassed to be caught.
"Excuse me ladies, I need to go and help the patients." I nodded to them and quickly walked away. Why did I have to have superhearing?
"Ohmigod! He's like a movie star! I'm so asking him out!"
"Dang, I didn't know there was a wife!"
"Did you hear what he said? It's something the perfect guy would say!" The women sighed, contentedly as they seemed to watch me go toward the group of doctors by the coffee machine. The doctors seemed to be amused by the scene behind me. I looked back. The nurses and interns were still staring at me. Damn it. I smiled nervously at the doctors. They motioned me to talk to them. I approached them, smiling. They seemed to have accepted me. They wanted to test me.
"You're good. Go over there to the desk. That woman will give you your patients for today," was what Dr. Julia had said. Woman. Great. I made my way to the old woman at the desk. I really wanted to help somebody today without wasting my time escaping nurses and interns.
"Hello… Angela." Angela. That rang a bell. The old woman looked up and looked at me with wide eyes.
"Dr. Cullen? Is that really you?" Oh crap. Did she know who I was? I started to panic a little.
"I'm Dr. Cullen. I suppose you knew my father's elder brother?" I was making this up all on the spot. Angela blushed.
"Yes I did…" I decided to take advantage the confusion to escape from getting my cover blown.
"Mrs. Cheney," I said looking down at the name tag she had on. "I would really like to help those people waiting." Angela looked flustered and quickly gave me a patient. "Thank you," I smiled at her. She turned red. I went out to the waiting room.
"May I see a Mrs. Crowley?" I asked looking down at the patient info.
"I'm Mrs. Crowley. Call me Lauren." The woman tried to bat her eyes at me. Hmm. Why did all these names ring a bell?
"Nice to meet you, Mrs. Crowley." I replied politely. I showed her to the examination room. She attempted to flirt with me. As if that wasn't bad enough, the nurses kept finding a reason to come into the room and tried to seduce me. I really needed Edward's talent right about now. I wondered when Esme was going to come…
Esme's POV
I saw that our house in Forks had gotten to be a big mess! Especially the garden. And the cottage for Edward and Bella. I was so happy that he had found his true love! I smiled, remembering how Edward had changed, as I made my way to Home Depot. I remembered how the guys had been too busy to flirt with me to show me where to find the stuff I needed. Luckily, I had memorized the whole place to keep from wasting time. I quickly bought all the things I needed and went back home to do a little gardening and fall cleaning.
Five Hours Later
YES! Success! I win! I have finished gardening and have gotten rid of the horrible ants that were inside our home. I showed them not to mess with the family's home! Oh! Time to visit Carlisle!
I drove the Aston Martin Vanquish to the hospital. The other cars were owned by a specific person in the house and I didn't want to touch them. They would get very picky sometimes….
Carlisle! I was happy that I had finished my cleaning and was visiting my life-saving husband! I had purposefully brought some homemade cookies that I couldn't taste with me to be sure that Carlisle would be on good terms with the rest of the doctors.
I entered the hospital. Everybody looked at me. I felt a little self-conscious and searched for Carlisle. I saw him- in the center of a group of ladies trying to flirt with him! I nearly dropped my plate of cookies. ALMOST. But I decided to be strong and walked over toward him.
I saw a guy pushing a cart except also not looking at where the cart was going. Well, I can tell you where it was going! It was heading my way! I dodged the cart only to see that the cart and I had collided. Dang. Medical supplies flew out. Pretending to be human, I fell to the ground lightly with the cookies still in my hand. If I had really fell, the hospital would have crashed and burned to the ground. Okay, maybe not the burned part but I was a little angry. Carlisle gently pushed the ladies away only to be fawned on by the patients blocking his way. I didn't think that was very nice of the patients.
"Well, hello there, sorry about that." A doctor had came over. He smelled weird but I politely returned his greetings and took his outstretched hand to look like I got up with help from him. He kept holding my hand.
"Thank you Dr…?"
"The name's Groom." The doctor unconsciously brushed his hair with his hand. I held my laughter inside. I internally scolded myself for laughing at a person's name.
"Anyways, thank you. Oh there's my husband!" I waved at Carlisle with my free hand. I saw the cookies were still on the floor and reached for them. Then, that stupid doctor tripped me and attempted to catch me in a tango position. He did. I laughed, good naturedly. I didn't want to tell him that he was a stupid jerk. I quickly picked up the plates of cookies and bounced back up. I saw Carlisle's face. He was furious. I felt bad. I quickly thanked the Dr. Groom for his help and made my way to Carlisle. I kissed him sweetly on the lips. Carlisle was sometimes really cute when he was jealous. His hair was all messed up. I pulled back and held out the cookies to him. Carlisle gave a strained grin. He still hadn't forgotten about the incident with Dr. Groom trying to flirt with me. I sighed and gently pushed him into his office. We talked for a while, put the cookies in the doctor's lounge and Carlisle's lunch break was over. I sat still in the office, deciding to wait for Carlisle and the children at the hospital…
Carlisle's POV
I clenched my teeth when I saw Dr. Groom, who had been staring at my wife ever since she entered the hospital, stop examining the patient and examined my wife as she walked towards me. Then John just had to go and make her pretend she had to trip. I saw Dr. Groom running, nearly tripping from the amount of force he had used to run toward my Esme. I should show him my office sometime soon. I saw him trip Esme and she once again had to pretend to be human. Sweet Esme pretended to be okay but I knew her well enough that she was irritated. That made me slightly happy but I was furious at Dr. Groom. Trying to flirt with a woman, even though she told him she was married! The patient blocking me noticed how much tension was in my fist and finished what she was saying quickly and ran off.
Esme came running toward me. She knew me well enough that I may do something quite rash, like Emmett when Rosalie was targeted by guys. Dr. Groom was going to have a bad day, some day… I kissed Esme back and she led me toward my office. I glared at Dr. Groom who was looking quite frightened by the time Esme had pulled me into my office.
"Dear, calm down. He's just human." I snarled. "Carlisle, stop that this moment." Esme said sternly. I felt bad. I hadn't meant to be furious with Dr. Groom but I couldn't help it when it came to Esme. Speaking of Esme, I looked around the room. I saw Esme appraise the room and after a few seconds of silence and consideration, she said "I like what you did. It seems to me that the room shows that you're happily married and are doted on by me. Which is true." Esme grinned. I hugged her. We started to talk about our day in vampire speed. My break was almost over. We finished talking soon enough and with a quick kiss, I left her in my office, leaving her to her own thoughts. Hey, maybe she might just redecorate my office. I smiled. Now getting back to those patients…
Okay, I admit it. This chapter was a little… rough. I'll fix it! But you guys need to tell me what I should or could fix! Thanks for reading this (I know I've probably said it way too many times!)!
