Chapter 9 – The Best of Doctors Used to Be Suck Ups
"Alex?" Izzie exclaimed again, this time more frustrated. "What are you doing here, Alex?"
"Oh, I just thought I'd pick up Laury and Lils and go to Disney World or something…" he said and smiled mischievously and waited for her to react.
"What!?" Izzie almost shouted. "You can't do that! It's not your weekend. It's not even weekend!" she said under her breath. "Where are your brains? Mexico?"
Alex rolled his eyes and smirked at her. "I was just kidding… I'm here for a consult: a kid who got bitten by a dog. Pretty nasty…"
"Oh, yeah… I saw that… Nasty indeed." George said, but Izzie smacked him on his shoulder.
"Seriously!?"
George looked at her. "…Would Burke really do like this to you?" he said in a small voice.
"I'm one of the best, so Burke called me." Izzie scoffed at his very confident words. "It's the truth. Though I know Burke called Mark Sloan first, but his assistant said he had some family emergency to take care of. Imagine him, here together with Shepherd… Fist flying, I tell you…" he gave out a laugh.
"Yeah…" Izzie looked down. She couldn't help but to miss him. Every time she looked at, especially Laura she saw him. They were very much alike, though Lily was more of him as a person. Very honest, confident and a bit proud. Izzie was still a bit angry at him for moving, but she couldn't help to think that Los Angeles was better than New York for example, because it was. He wasn't a bad father, at all. The opposite of so. Even if he lived in LA he managed to stay a father. He called almost every day, and every second weekend he flew down and got them to spend the weekend in LA. Even if she was still a bit angry, they were doing better and better by the day. Before Alex moved, their relationship had been rather rocky and it was going down hill. Somewhere Izzie had thought that Laura and Lily would hold them together. It lasted two years, then it broke. Live is full of surprises they say, right? "Well, drop by later and see Laura and Lily. They'd be very happy…" Izzie smiled slightly. "See you around…" she said and turned around, followed by George.
"Izz…" Alex called out quietly.
"See you later, Alex…"

Zadie stood in the stairs in front of the OR board and viewed it. She probably wasn't allowed there but no one seemed to care. Everybody was running around like crazy. To her the board didn't look that crowed, but maybe that was the problem. A lot of times when she were at St Helen's the surgical staff was way more restless a day with a quiet board than a day with a crowded one. To Zadie it never made any sense, to run around like crazy when there weren't any surgeries. She guessed people working in hospitals were one of a kind.
"And what do we think we're doing here!" a small but yet hard and harsh voice suddenly said behind her.
Zadie turned around so quickly that she lost her balance and fell, tumbling down the stairs. "A crap!" she exclaimed and rubbed her head after hitting the floor beneath.
"Oh I'm sorry…" the woman said, who mainly was the reason for the tumble. "Great… and you're bleeding…" she stated as she bent down beside Zadie.
"Awh, crap, crap, crap…" she said still rubbing her head and she looked up at the woman dressed in dark blue scrubs and a regular white coat. "I wasn't doing anything…"
"No, you were studying our board and now you're down on the floor, bleeding… I don't think that qualifies for not doing anything…"
"Quiet, I was studying you quiet board." Zadie said and rose from the floor, immediately feeling a bit dizzy. "Wow..."
"Oh take it easy…" the woman said and led Zadie to a chair near by. "I think we should take a look at the wound, and then get someone to check that your head's alright."
"No, no, no… I'm fine, seriously…" Zadie stood up. "Just tell me where I can find dr McDreamy… Wow…" she said and at down realizing what she just said. "I do feel dizzy…"
"Excuse me!?" the woman exclaimed and Zadie looked up at her and her eyes immediately flew to the right side of her chest. "What did you say!?"
"Nothing!" Zadie said and looked down, feeling the pain ache in her head. As she looked up again dr Miranda Bailey stared at her. "Seriously! It's nothing…"
"Oh, I wasn't asking how you are…" she snapped in a pissed kind of tone. "I'll go get a neuro consult…" Bailey looked strangely at her newfound patient with a feeling of having seen her before. "Well, just stay her and wait for me to come back… What's your name?"
"It's Zadie, but I'm fine… You don't have to get a consult… I'm fine…" Zadie stood up again. "Seriously…"
Bailey blinked. "There it is…"
"What?"
"I mean, you seem so familiar… Especially when you say that… Have we met before?"
"No… We haven't." Zadie shook her head.
"Well, okay… I thought maybe you were one of William's friends…" Bailey said as she started to walk.
"William?" Zadie called after her. "Who's William?"
"Oh, William… My son…" Bailey said and smiled.
"You don't know you're son's friends?" Zadie asked and looked at her in a kind of disbelief. Her mother knew every one of her friends, though Zadie did just spend time with a close group of six. "Or better yet, don't you recognize his friends?"
"Hssmnnh…" Bailey glared at her. "Oh, someone's got a cheeky sharp mouth…" Zadie gave out a laugh. "Now sound like a bunch of interns I have some years ago… Five suck ups and know it alls, but smart ones. Smart know-it-alls are the worst kind, but I think the worst kind make the best of doctors… Well I'll go get that neuro consult…" she said and walked off leaving Zadie behind.
A/N: So did you like? Hope so... Well I found it hard to make Bailey right but I think I did as good as I could, hope she's not to disappointing... I don't know when I'll be able to get the 10th chapter up but I think I've written like a A4 page so maybe It'll be up before the week ends, maybe...
