As the day drug on I could not stop thinking about Jackie. I was really looking forward to grabbing a drink with her after work. I meet my sister and our new friends in the cafeteria.
"How is everybody's first day going," I said smiling as I took a bite of my sandwich.
"It would be better if Bailey did not already mark me as an underdog," the one called O'Malley said.
"Let me guess," I said looking at him. "You tried to show her that you where big and knew what you were doing. Then when a big moment came for you to really show her that you were good you screwed up."
"How did you know that," he asked looking at me with wide eyes.
"I can read it on your face," I said. "My name is Jordan for the ones who do not know."
"I am George," he said.
"I am Izzie," the blond said.
"I am Christina," the women that I had already picked out as my biggest competitor to be said.
"So how was your first day," Meredith asked me.
"I changed two IV tubes," I said. "Charted for Doctor Burk and I got a date."
"Why are you the pretty one," she asked again.
"Let me guess," Izzie said looking between me and Meredith. "You guys are twins."
I nodded my head. "We are. She is the shy when you first meet her then loud and crazy one. I am the always loud, funny, and slightly annoying one," I said smirking.
"That's cool," George said. "I was wondering if we could all be friends."
"I thought we were," Meredith said. "I mean we did set together at lunch. We are also pared up with Bailey."
"Ok," George said. "That means we can go out for a drink after work together."
"I wish I could," I said. "Really I do. But I have a date with a pretty red head later."
"Is he an attending, resident, or an intern," Izzie asked me.
"She," I said, "is a nurse."
"I did not know you were going to date a nurse," Meredith said smirking at me.
"I did not know that you were into girls," George said looking a little downcast.
"First off," I said looking at Meredith. "I will date anyone that is into me and has a nice attitude. Jackie is all of that and then some. George do not get your manhood in a twist. I will not be competing with you for girls. I am into red heads."
"That is fine," George said. "I will date anything that comes my way."
"That is something that you need to work on," Christina said to him.
"I hope that I am not interrupting your chat," Doctor Burke said to us. "I just wanted to tell you that Doctor O'Malley here is going to scrub in with me on a surgery after lunch."
"Really," George said looking a little scared.
"Yes," Burke said. "Doctor Grey I want you to go back to the fourth floor and Jackie will give you more charts to do."
I nodded my head. I was going to hate my intern year if that was all I was going to do.
"How come O'Malley gets to scrub in on a surgery and I don't," Christina said.
"At least you do not have to do charts," I grumbled.
After lunch I went back up to the fourth floor.
"You could not stay away could you," Jackie said handing me the charts.
"I just wanted to make sure that you were still going to go out with me," I said as I started to work on the charts.
She laughed. I was really into the laugh.
"I was thinking that maybe I could take you to a great bar down the street," she said. "It is called Emerald City. But the regulars call it Joe's."
"Sounds fun," I said. "I will pay for the appetizers and beer."
"What a total lady," she said.
"Oh about me being a total lady," I said looking at her. "If you were thinking that I was going to take you back to my place after the night you can forget about it. After the fourth date I will take you home."
"That is really nice," she said. "That way we can get to know each other."
I nodded my head. "I do it to make sure people can deal with my baggage."
"Everyone has baggage," she said.
"Everyone does," I said. "But I think I have more than you think."
"I will be ready," she said. Her pager went off. "I will talk to you later. The great Doctor Webber needs me."
I watched as she walked away. I was wondering if she would ever be ready for my baggage.
