It wasn't until morning that Scarlett groggily opened her eyes. She hadn't even realized she'd fallen asleep but the more she thought about it, the more she could remember dreaming of Johnny. Of course she had. Of fucking course. It was always about Johnny, first her thoughts and now even her dreams. He'd taken over her. It was maddening.

Scarlett closed her eyes again, desperately wishing she could escape from her feelings for a while and she longed for the tried and true comfort of her razor. It could save her from this, she was pretty sure. However, her razor wasn't here nor was anything else she could use, so she sadly resigned herself to trying to cope with these feelings. At least until she could get her hands on something.

The sudden sound of footsteps and voices shook Scarlett out of her dark thoughts and she wondered if whoever it was was coming to see her. She mentally groaned at the thought - - she'd had enough of doctors for a lifetime at this point.

Scarlett didn't bother opening her eyes as she heard a female voice greet her and say something about taking her vital signs. Honestly, she didn't even care at this point. It was all whatever.

It wasn't until she heard a distinctive male voice, a voice that made her heart skip a beat, that her eyes finally popped open.

"Well hello, miss Scarlett. How are you doin' today? You gave us all a scare yesterday, ya know." He grinned his stupid crooked grin at her and the sudden butterflies that invaded her stomach made her feel slightly ill. Damn butterflies thinking they could just fly around like they owned the place.

Before Scarlett could reply the nurse at her side did.

"Oh yeah, you're the one who brought her in right, Johnny?"

Scarlett took a moment to study Johnny as he was more focused on the nurse. He wasn't wearing the uniform he'd been wearing yesterday but instead had on jeans and a plain brown button up shirt. His longish hair was also mussed like he'd just hopped out of bed. Maybe he had.

"Sure did. She knows exactly how to scare a fella. Passed out on me at the scene and then Brackett had me start an IV a little later and she passed out again."

Scarlett turned her focus on the nurse now. Her blonde hair was up in a bun with a weird nurse's cap and she was wearing a white pantsuit she'd never seen nurses wear before. Huh.

"Must've scared you pretty good to be here on your day off." She gave him a look Scarlett couldn't quite read. Was it sarcasm? Amusement?

"Well you know how it is, Dix. I gotta check up on my patient, make sure she's all right."

Ah, so that was Dixie. Johnny seemed like good friends with her and Scarlett felt a pang of jealousy in her stomach. What if they weren't just friends?

Johnny flashed Scarlett another grin and she noticed the smile Dixie had. It was definitely amusement, no doubt about it.

"Right, well, I have to get back to work. Don't make her pass out again." She teased as she started making her way out.

Scarlett heard Johnny's indignant "what?" but Dixie just turned and looked her right in the eyes and smiled before turning and leaving. She felt her heart racing. Did Dixie know?
