Guy
turned the corner, and entered Sue White's office. Sue was playing
with a remote control, randomly pointing it at things in the room,
and cursing loudly when they did not do as she pleased. When she
spotted Guy, she immediately pointed it at him, and he froze,
apparently transfixed.
"Come here, my pretty!" She said, in
an evil witch voice, pressing buttons until he sat down, robotic in
his chair. "So, Dr. Secretan, what can I do for you today?" she
crooned. Guy sat motionless, expressionless. Finally realising, Sue
put away the remote control, and turned back to face him.
"Good,
fine, I'm good," he began, as if nothing had happened.
"Well
aren't you going to ask me?" said Sue, in feigned
hurt.
"No."
"Well fine then, you can get out, until you
have learnt some manners!"
Guy walked out of the office. Sue
pulled out the remote control once more, and made Guy smack
himself.
"Fucking OW! Stop
it!"
Later,
in theatre, Guy, Caroline and Mac were standing around a patient,
giving a routine hernia repair operation.
"So, what today then,
regional accent, movie, or… impression?" asked Mac.
"Impression,
just not of me, otherwise I think I might faint at the sight of my
beauty," replied Guy. Exasperated, but ignoring Guy, Caroline chose
to do an impression of Sue – any opportunity to make fun of her,
just so that Mac would not consider Sue over herself. It was cruel,
and a bit of a cheap shot, but Caroline was almost willing to try
anything… Mac had said he loved her – not in that way, she
was sure… but…
"Okay… Sue it is," said Mac, making
Caroline's knees melt – he did this whenever he spoke to her
recently.
"Oooh,…. Doctor Macartney, I looove…. you so much!
I want to…. have your babies!" said Guy, laughing as he did so,
so that he had to pause between words to catch his breath.
Mac
looked a little embarrassed, but proceeded with the operation,
slightly regretting the fact that he had chosen to offer the option
of an impression today. Caroline proceeded to do a mad Scottish dance
around the theatre, knocking into the trolley as she returned. She
had to hastily pick up all the surgical instruments, and fetch a
fresh trolley. Guy sniggered as she did this, and Caroline cursed him
under her breath – he was making her look more of a fool than she
already felt. However, Mac was secretly smiling to himself. He found
her clumsiness quite… cute.
"Let me tug at your lion's mane.
Feeeel my squirrel!" continued Guy, once he had stopped laughing.
"But let's not forget who actually did go with Sue, donkey
boy. I didn't know Sue was into bestiality…" retorted Mac (in a
glaswegian accent, as they were supposed to be doing
impressions), smiling, so it was all in good humour. "Right," he
said, matter-of-factly, "I think we're done here. Let's close
her up." Guy still looked slightly annoyed, but couldn't think of
anything to say
back.
Later
that day, Martin and Caroline were sitting in the lunch
hall.
"Caroline, are you alright?"
"Yeah, I'm fine, why
dya ask?" said Caroline, snapping out of her daydream (no
explanation needed about i who /i it involved).
"You
just seem a little… preoccupied."
"No, no, no. I'm fine,
honestly. Just a little tired." Caroline gave a yawn at this point,
to assure Martin as to what she was saying, because she did not
want him to guess what the matter actually was. How going into work
every day was becoming harder and harder, how she wanted to tell Mac
how she felt until she thought she might burst every time she looked
at him, how she had been the luckiest person on the planet, but it
was worse because she had had it all taken away from her, just
because Guy had been a bastard and wanted to prove himself as a 'real
man'. She hated Guy for that. But he made her laugh. But only when
he was with Mac – all he did when he was alone with her was to make
some sort of sexist comment, boast about his latest conquest, or try
and hit on Caroline. But he was funny with Mac… aaahhh….. Mac….
She was snapped out of her next train of thought again by Guy (he
spoiled everything!), whom she had hit in the chest with her hand
when pretending to yawn.
"Hello. Doing your morning caveman
dance?" quipped Guy.
"Shut up," snapped Caroline, a little
more sharply than usual.
"Awww… what's wrong? PMT? Pretty
Manly Tits…."
"Ohhh…." Caroline was lost for words to
tell Guy exactly what she thought of him at that point, and she
stomped off. She went to sit at another table, with Angela.
Guy
and Martin went over to join her. Caroline didn't have the energy,
or the patience to move again. She would have had to explain to
Angela, and then listen to a load of patronising nonsense later about
'taking things too seriously'.
Mac sauntered up to the nearly
full table and sat down, rapping the table as he did so. Caroline
shivered slightly as his sleeve brushed her. Then she promptly told
herself off - she didn't want to look weird in front of Mac
again.
"What are you eating, rabbit food?" Mac asked Caroline.
Caroline had been trying to eat healthily, to give a good
impression.
"No, it's a salad… my favourite… lettuce, and
rocket, and parsley, and…."
"Yeah. Okay… anyway…"
suddenly Mac went white, stood up again, and left, without even
giving an excuse.
"The gingerness has finally turned his brain
soggy…" said Guy. Everyone looked at him, said nothing, and
carried on eating. Martin knew something was up, and he intended to
find out what it
was.
Angela
walked into the toilets, as part of her hourly routine of checking
her make-up and then her hair. She looked into the mirror, and
promptly did something halfway between a gasp and a scream. There was
someone sitting behind her in a toilet cubicle, with the door open,
his head in his hands.
"Mac! You surprised me! You're not
supposed to be in here!"
Mac looked up, slightly dazed, and
sauntered out, looking worried.
"Mac, what's the matter?"
said Angela, concerned.
"What? Oh, nothing
really…"
A
knock came at Statham's door.
"Who's there?" Alan said
irritatedly.
"The interrupting sheep," came Boyce's
voice.
"Right. Now can you go away?" replied Alan.
"No,
you're still not doing it right, you're supposed to say 'the
interrupting sheep who?'."
"Okay, okay. Then will you please
leave me alone, I hardly need remind you, I am very busy and
important!"
"Knock knock."
"Who's there?"
"The
interrupting sheep."
"The interrupting…"
"Baaaaa!"
Boyce suddenly interrupted him.
"I said! The interrupting
shee…."
"Baaaaa!" Boyce interrupted him again.
"Boyce!
You told me to say the interrupting…"
"Baaaaa!"
"Boyce!
I… oh…. Very funny… now can you piss off..." murmured
Statham.
Caroline
was sitting in the staff room, absentmindedly stirring a cup of
coffee. A strong one. Might knock her out, hopefully. It had been a
long shift… too long. She didn't want to go home, where she would
be alone, again, with only misery to occupy her mind.
Mac walked
into the room and saw her there, and slowly and unsurely ambled up to
her, and sat down in the chair, not saying anything.
"Hi, Mac…
what are you still doing here?" said Caroline, snapping out of her
daze.
"I was looking for you… I just need to ask you
something."
"Mmmm, sounds serious…"
"Yeah… it's
just something you said earlier… made me think of something. Oh
god, where to I begin?
Ummm…"
Guy
was suddenly approached by none other than Sue White. Perfect
opportunity, thought Guy. His latest bet was with Boyce. The victim?
Sue White. The prize? Two months of Boyce's salary, and being able
to use him as a slave. Boyce really didn't think that Guy would be
able to do it, and Guy played along, pretending to be repulsed, just
so Boyce upped the prize money (and he had checked that he was not,
in fact, related to her).
But, out of it, he got a shag, a slave,
and cash. Sure, it was Sue, but hey…
"Hi, Sue. How are you
these days?"
"Fine you muppet. Have you seen Mac anywhere? I
just needed to tell him about the horrible disease that has been
passing through the hospital. Especially the doctors. I think
Caroline may have it, and I need to warn those who work with
her."
"Nope, the ginger poof buggered off ages ago I
think."
"He's not ginger," whispered
Sue.
"What?"
"Nothing! Nothing!"
"Right…" Guy
was thinking of the best way to seduce Sue, but since the episode
with his mother, he had rather lost his touch. Making any effort
nowadays seemed to repulse him, because he could only see that
dreadful day….
"What are you thinking about donkey?"
"I
just… looked into your eyes, and got lost…"
"What the fuck
are you going on about?" said Sue, in her strong accent. Maybe
Joanna was pregnant….. she mused.
"Listen, the problem is,
I've lost my phone number…. Can I have yours?"
"…."
Sue just looked stunned, and said nothing, surprisingly.
"Do
you believe in love at first sight, or should I walk passed you
again?" he continued.
Guy suddenly lurched forwards, pressing
his mouth against Sue's, and hoping it would pass as acceptable. He
was sure Sue couldn't have got any in a while, so this might
work…
Sue immediately reciprocated, falling into Guy, and
throwing her arms around his neck, nearly eating his face off. Guy
was slightly taken aback, but, hey, at least he still had the old
charm…
Sue broke away, looked deeply into Guy's eyes, and
placed her hands on his chest, feeling his muscles. She grinned, and
then pushed him against the corridor wall, kissing him as fast and as
deeply as she could. She was desperate and bored, and she knew that
Guy would go with anyone. Perfect.
A sniggering came from down the
corridor, and Boyce appeared. He saw Sue pinning back Guy's arms
against the wall, and kissing him like a bear eats a fish.
Sue
immediately broke away. Guy was red all around his mouth, and even
had a love bite on his upper lip. She looked from Guy to Boyce. Boyce
was looking all-knowing about the situation, like he found it funny,
not shocking. Sue wasn't stupid.
"You… you… fucking
whore…" she stuttered, and flounced off, tidying up her
'squirrel' as she went.
"Oi, that's not fair! You
spoiled it! I want a rematch!"
"Nope, sorry mate, offer's
gone now….But, I'm sure everyone will be very interested to know
about this…"
"fuck off, you wouldn't dare!"
"Wouldn't
I?" smiled Boyce, "shall we call it a week with you as my
personal slave, and no-one will find out?"
Caroline
looked into Mac's eyes, hardly daring to believe what was
happening. She almost didn't want it to; because it might all go
wrong again. Apparently, when Caroline had been talking about the
contents of her salad, it made Mac remember what Caroline had said,
that time she lay on top of him in his hospital bed, and confessed
her true feelings. Then it all had come flooding back.
"Mac,
it's just that…" said Caroline, standing up. Mac followed. She
was silenced by Mac placing one soft finger on her lips. Gently, he
moved his hand towards her chin, and guided her face up to his. How
could she have kept quiet about this so long?
He slowly kissed
her; the feelings came rushing back. All of a sudden, they were
running their fingers through each other's hair, up each other's
arms, round each other's back. Mac pulled Caroline in closer,
holding her, finally. Caroline smiled as she kissed him with all the
passion she could muster. This was so unreal. She hugged her arms
around him, pressing herself into him; it was all she could do to
keep from falling over.
Mac moved down to kiss Caroline's neck,
and Caroline let slip a small sigh.
"Is everything alright?"
asked Mac suddenly, looking up at Caroline. She couldn't speak, she
just looked into Mac's eyes and kissed him again, fast, before he
was taken away from her again. She would never forget this.
Once they had got in the car, Mac at the driver's seat, there was silence. Mac looked over at Caroline and sighed. She looked straight up at him. Not being able to wait, he leant over to her again, and kissed her.
By the time they had managed to get through the door, they were in a flurry of dropped coats, kissing, and holding each other. Luckily, Mac's apartment was one floor, so his bedroom was on the same floor. He pushed Caroline through the door. He broke away the next moment, suddenly nervous. He really wanted to make this special for Caroline – she had waited so long. To be honest, he wanted to be good so he didn't put her off him, because he realised, that day when he had been thinking about it, he i really /i liked her. He thought he might even be falling in love with her. But, looking at her face; he smiled. He walked to the door, and closed it slowly, turning back to face Caroline, smiling. He wandered back to her, not keeping his eyes off her. He slowly kissed her again as passionately and adoringly as possible. His hands slipped down to undo the buttons on the front of her mismatched shirt, at the same time as hers moved to his. They clashed, looked up at each other, and gave a short, nervous laugh. They both continued, and then Mac ran his hands up Caroline's arms. One of his arms slipped around her back, the other to cup her cheek, and stroked it with his thumb. He looked into her eyes, and kissed her again, softly, yet urgently. Caroline nearly fell into him; her heart bursting. They pulled each other closer, just to feel the other's skin against their own.
Caroline would never forget that night, nor would she forget being able to wake up in the morning with her head on Mac's chest, with him playing with her hair. She thought of nothing else as she sat up. Neither of them said anything; they didn't need to.
