"Weaver!" Romano bellowed as she stood up to leave the budget meeting.
"Please sit back down, I need to discuss something with you."
Kerry sat back down. "Shoot" she said
"That was one hell of a budget you created. In fact you have a real talent for that kind of work" he started
Kerry was instantly on guard. Romano didn't pass out complements unless he had an ulterior motive. "Thank you, Robert"
"Don't get your fur up Kerry. I'm complimenting you, enjoy it. I want you to start a search for some one to replace Mark Greene and that pediatrician that took Ross's place, "
"Cleo Finch"
"Thanks ,yeah, Finch." He said
"Robert, I want to hire them with complete autonomy." She started
" Fine, but, I want Greene replaced from inside the hospital, you can go outside county for the other job." He told her. He hoped Carter would appreciate what he was doing for him. He had an idea that Carter's happiness about his position here at the hospital would do a lot toward keeping Alice happy with him. 'Do you have anyone in mind" he knew Carter was the only one qualified, beside Chen, and Kerry would chew off her own arm before she would give Chen the position.
"John Carter is the only one that comes to mind, let me consider it." She said
"Well, it might not hurt to throw a few lines out to other hospitals about the position, that's how we got you. Maybe we could get a better candidate outside the hospital" he added
Kerry thought about this statement. She didn't want a wild card coming in to her ER. She really wanted someone that knew how they operated at County. Carter had been doing a first rate job since Mark had left, in fact he had filled the void without anyone noticing until now. "No, I think Carter will be the perfect choice." She said and left Robert. Robert smiled "Sometimes it was just too easy" He thought.
He opened the door to his apartment. She met him with a drink and the apartment was lit only with candles.
"Well congratulate me" she said " I am now the official Chairman of the Carter Foundation:
His response was to pick her up take her to the bedroom.
'Thank Me" He said
"For what?"
"Your nephew is about to become and attending at County and I am the reason"
"I' m way ahead of you" she replied as he put her on the bed.
Carter pulled Abby into the drug lock up. "You are never going to believe this!"
"What" she said
"Weaver just offered me the Attending position. Can you believe that"
"You're kidding Attending – Mark's job! Wow" She was ecstatic "What did you say?"
"Oh give me a break what do you think I said" he looked at Abby he wanted to kiss her. "Let's celebrate to night" She said, "Come over to my place"
Kerry walked into her apartment and felt well than she had in months, She picked up the phone " Do you want to come over? I've finally gotten over the budget proposal and have an evening free?"
Kerry sat back down. "Shoot" she said
