Tina walked over to the oversized chair that sat facing the balcony doors she pulled her knees to her chest, opened her book, wrapped one arm around her knees and began reading. She sat there for what felt like only a few minutes, when she flipped the last page in her book she realized that she had sat there for two and a half hours reading. Tina closed her book then stared out the doors looking to the sky and watching the stars. She started to think about the past couple days of your life, the things that she had done. She quit her job to go on the road and work for the WWE. She kept telling herself that it was because she needed a change in pace the hospital was always so fast there was barely anytime to sit or do anything else. She quit the job that her and her husband fought about all the time, the job that ended her marriage. Well that wasn't entirely true the abuse that her husband gave her is what ended the marriage, but the only reason that there was abuse was because she spent very little time at home. She tired to come up with the reason that made her quit her job, did she really need a change in pace, was she afraid that her ex would be true to his word and come back for her, or was it Dave.
She heard Hunter say something but was too much into thought to realize that he was talking to her that is until he said her name a couple times. She turned her head and looked from Hunter to Dave.
"I'm sorry what did you say?" She asked.
"I asked what made you quit your job at the hospital and join us." Hunter repeated his question. Tina stood and walked over to the couch she sat down and pulled her legs under her self again.
"Because…I need a change. At the hospital I worked in the E.R so I saw a lot of horrible things, like the aftermath of drive by shootings, and drug busts, I saw a lot of child abuse which is always hard. I'm sick of watching people die right in front of me and there is nothing that I can do." Tina paused closed her eyes for a second then continued. "When I was in med school I thought working in the E.R would be the best job ever, I liked the fast paced environment and always seeing some one different and having different problems do deal with. I didn't realize what I would see being as an E.R doctor. It is nothing like the TV makes it out to be. I have had teenage kids come in three or four times a week from gun shoots wounds. I can't count how many gang related and drug related deaths that I have seen. I have had a guy hold me and the entire staff at gun point because he wanted drugs and we refused to give them to him." Tina leaned her head to the side. "I could deal with it at first then the more that I saw the more that I realized that I couldn't keep going like that. I didn't want to just sign a person's death warrant and that is pretty much what I did, I would tell people that they had cancer or whatever it was and I would give them options they had to try and beat it but in the back of my mind I knew that they wouldn't make it another month or year or even day and then that was it they would just walk out the door. I don't know once they walk out the door if they have lived or not. Don't get me wrong I love being a doctor but… but it was just becoming too much."
"So it sounds like it." Hunter couldn't believe what he had just heard.
"Had you wanted to leave for a while?" Dave asked curious.
"I had thought about it, but after going to school and all the internships that I had to do. I decided that it would have been a waste of my time and money if I had quit." Tina laughed. "I could have opened my own practice, but that requires even more work and money then what I have right now, so I ruled that one out. I had other options but every time that I would think of it something would happen at the hospital that made me changes my mind about leaving."
"What could happen in a hospital that was good?"
"Lot's could happen. A baby being born or a wife getting out of an abusive marriage or some one beats or some horrible disease. You see how happy they are and that makes all the bad things sort of disappear."
"So it's not always horrible working in a hospital."
"No not always, but most of the time." Tina gave a small laugh.
"Well I guess I should head back to my room and leave you two to what ever it was that you started before I walked in here and then what you tried to finish in the kitchen." Hunter stood and headed for the door. "Tina it was nice talking to you. Hope we can do this again sometime." Hunter opened the door and walked out in the hall, shut the door behind him.
Once the door was shut Dave smiled at Tina, he took her legs from under her and pulled them into his lap. Dave slowly ran his hands over her legs up to her thigh; Tina laid her head back and closed her eyes, as his hand stopped on the waist band of her shorts. Tina waited to see what his next move was going to be to her surprise he moved his body over top of her and began to claim her lips with his once again. Tina moved her arms around his neck and began to run to nails up and down his back. Dave started to move his hand under her cami when Tina's cell phone rang.
