Unexpected Love
Disclaimer: I do not own ER!!!
Chapter 1
Susan's alarm clock went off, she sat up. Another day at work, thought Susan to herself. The same old schedule, wake up, go to work, come home, and then you have to do it over again. Susan wished that she could have someone to spend the time with, but she knew that she couldn't make something work that wasn't there. She had tried Carter, but he only loved Abby, and now they are together, and her other boyfriend was just not the one, but how can I wait for the one? Susan then crawled out of bed, and went and had a shower.

Later that day at the ER,
"Susan and Carter, you are going to a medical conference tomorrow," said Kerry as she handed them both a piece of paper with the details about the medical conference and then she left the lounge.
"So I guess we are going to another medical conference," said Susan to Carter.
" Was it just last year that we went to one," said Carter softly.
"I guess we have to go every year," laughed Susan. Abby then entered the lounge." I heard that you and Susan have to go to a medical conference tomorrow," said Abby. Kerry then entered the lounge." Oh Abby, you have to go to the medical conference too," Carter and Abby exchanged looks and laughed.

The next morning,
Susan's alarm clock went off at 7:45. She then hit the snooze button, and slept in for another 20 minutes. She looked at the clock, and saw that it read 8:05. "Great, I'm going to be late for the conference; this isn't going to be a good day." thought Susan as she crawled out of bed, and quickly had her shower.
Susan was on her way to the medical conference when she bumped into someone.
"I'm sorry," she said softly.
"That is okay," he said as he walked off.
"Susan." said Abby softly. Susan turned around, and saw Abby and Carter." Hey," she said as she went up to them.
"Who was that you were just talking to?" asked Abby.
"What?" asked Susan, shocked.
"The man that you were just talking to just a few seconds ago,"
"Oh, him. I just bumped into him. I don't even know his name." said Susan.
"Okay," said Abby as they started to walked toward the building where the medical conference was being held.

About 2 hours later,
"There will be a half an hour lunch," said the presenter. Susan got up from her chair, and stretched her legs. Susan looked over to her left, and saw that Abby and Carter were leaving the room. Susan then went and poured herself a cup of coffee. She then felt someone's hands near her. Susan looked up, and saw that it was the stranger from before.
"We meet again." said the stranger as he looked at Susan. Susan looked up, and smiled. "Hey," she said as she looked at his pretty blue eyes. "My name is Brent Grey," he said as he shook hands with Susan.
"Dr. Lewis." said Susan. "Susan, I mean. I'm just so use to saying Dr. Lewis. Susan couldn't believe how nervous she was feeling, its not like he is asking me out, all he is doing is being polite.
"I know, what you mean, "laughed Brent.
"Where do you work?" he asked. "County General"
"What about you?"
"Northwestern," Well, I have to go now; maybe we will run into each other another time,"
"Maybe," smiled Susan. Abby and Carter walked up to Susan.
"Hey," they said. "Sorry we left you for so long, I hope you weren't lonely," said Abby.
"No, I wasn't," I was definitely not lonely thought Susan as she sat down on the chair to hear the rest of the conference. All she could think about was Brent, she hasn't even known him for a whole day, and so why is he all she can think of.

Later that day,
"Thanks everybody for coming, I hope it was very informative for you all," said the presenter.
Susan, Abby, and Carter then got up from their seats.
"Do you need a ride home?" asked Carter.
"No, I'm fine." said Susan as they started to walk towards the door. "Susan," Susan turned around, and saw Brent standing in front of her.
"Susan, here is my number," said Brent as he handed her a piece of paper. "If you want to go out sometime.
" Well…" she said. Brent looked at Susan." Oh, I didn't know you had a boyfriend,"
" No, it is not that," Susan then took a piece of paper out of her pocket, and started to write something down. " Call me," she said as she walked out of the room. Maybe today is turning out to be a good day," thought Susan.
