When it came around to ten, all the kids were being put to bed. Some were chatting with their parents about how good of a night they had. Izzy had just started to pack up the face painting stuff when Alex found her. "Hey," he whispered, as he started to help her. Izzy smiled at him, as she continued her work. Alex knew that she had to be running on fumes now. She had worked a long shift and had spent all that extra time getting the place ready for the party. "You look like you're about ready to drop."
"That's because I am," she replied, as she put the box of stuff by the door and turned to face him. "But I'm glad that you did help. All of you." The others shot her a tired smile as they walked by. "Have a good night."
"Come on," Alex said, as he took the box from her. "I'll walk you to the door."
"That sounds like a fantastic plan, Dr. Devil." She slipped an arm around his and they headed for the door. "Night." The nurses on duty smiled as they walked by. "That was fun. The look on those kids' faces was priceless."
"And we got pictures to prove it."
"Yeah, we got pictures." Izzy then turned to face Alex, as soon as they were outside. "Would you mind giving me a ride home, since the others have all ready left?"
"I would love to."
"Thank you, Alex." They got into Alex's car and he drove her to the house. He even walked her box inside and then went home.
-------
The next week, Izzy had gotten all the pictures she had taken developed and was pinning them up on the bullention board for all the parents to see with Alex's help, when Nala came up to their sides. "Hey, Nala," Alex said to her, as she tugged on his scrub's, and he hunched down in front of her. "What ya got there?"
"It's for Dr. Angel," she answered, as she handed Alex the card before running back to her room.
"It's for you," Alex said, as he handed Izzy the homemade card. She opened it up and tears start to fall down her face. "Izzy?" He peered over her shoulder to see that it was a thank you card and all the kids had signed it. "You did a great job."
"I know."
"There you two are," Bailey called out to them, as she looked at the board and smiled. "You two did a great job. One thing though, next year, we're all choosing our own costumes."
"Of course," Izzy said, as she slid the card into her pocket. "Are we late for our rounds?"
"You will be if you don't get going." They shot her a smile as they headed off for their rounds. Bailey let out a sigh as she watched them go. "Interns."
