JACKSON

There is no way that I will be able to stay away from her today. Last night I had gotten Amber's phone number out of her employee file (I was head of the board, so what?) and took a chance at texting her. When she returned my playful banter, I took a chance and showed up at her apartment. I would have been totally fine just hanging out and flirting but when she stepped out of the elevator in a short white summer dress and heels that made her legs look even longer than they were normally, I wasn't. I didn't know what came over me but I couldn't help but hope it happened again.

She said she wanted to keep it professional and she didn't want anyone to think that she was sleeping her way to the top. I get it. But I couldn't help but want to be around her. I felt like there was so much more I wanted to know about her.

Stepping out of the shower and drying myself off, I started getting ready for the day, having a feeling that it was going to be a long day.

AMBER

I just got a text from Jo saying that her and Hannah had a great time last night and that Hannah had been safely deposited in the Hospital's daycare. I had planned to go up and meet them up there but I didn't want to see Jo. We've gotten close in the past few months and I'm afraid she'll be able to tell something happened last night.

I still can't believe it. Jackson may have shown up at my apartment but I initiated the rest of it. I didn't think I could see him. Which was odd considering deep down I kept looking around to see if I could spot him.

"Earth to Evans! Hell-oOOo?" Amelia snapped her fingers in front of my face, jolting me out of my thoughts.

"Hey…what's up? Do you want a coffee?" I was standing at one of the coffee carts to get my morning fix when she found me zoning out.

"Uh yeah, a large with sugar please. Well, I need you in Surgery with me at 11. 37-year-old, I need to remove a tumor that grew with such force it cracked the front of her skull. I was hoping you could do the repair once I finished the removal."

"Damn, I've heard about cases like that but I've never been involved in one. I have Bates on my services today, is it cool if she scrubs in with us? I had to cut her loose last week because of a surgery popping up."

"Yeah, Bates is a good intern, she can scrub in. I would have sought you out anyways though. So, how was the date with Brad?" Wiggling her eyebrows at me, I could already tell that she wasn't go to let up.

"He was a perfect gentleman. It was a nice evening."

Amelia immediately saw through my lie. We both grabbed our coffees and paid the man at the cart. "Spill it." She said as we started walking away. I kept my eyes forward and shrugged.

"Nothing to spill."

Of course, at that moment my eyes perked up as I saw Jackson walking out the door. He looked right at me and showed that dazzling smile. I immediately felt shy and gave him a small smile back.

"Amber, Amelia." He said as he passed us, nodding in greeting.

As we walked back into the hospital, I attempted to veer off but Amelia grabbed my arm and practically threw me into an empty storage closet.

"Amber Evans you dirty freaking liar, spill right now about what's going on with you and Avery!"

I stared at her and I knew my face was turning more and more red by the second. "Amelia, don't. Seriously, keep your voice down!" When she didn't say anything but just kept looking at me, I just blurted it all out.

"Look, don't tell anyone ok? It was only a one-time thing. Well, two times I guess. The point is, I don't want this getting out."

"Twice?" She interrupted, her face telling me that I better continue talking and talking fast.

"Okay Okay I had surgery with Alex and him yesterday. Alex mentioned Jo taking Hannah and asked me about my date. Jackson got super weird and after the surgery Alex offered to do the report since he was on call. He left and when Jackson made some snide comment about me having fun on my date I sort of lost it. I asked him what was up and why he wasn't talking and laughing like we normally did in surgery. Before I knew it he was kissing me and telling me not to go on my date. He left pretty quickly after that and I didn't see him again. At the restaurant I got a text from an unknown number and it was him saying he wanted to see him. Fuck Amelia, I don't know what I was thinking but I told Brad that Hannah was sick and I went home. I told him he'd probably crap if I left my date and he said he was he was already at my apartment waiting. I didn't respond and when I got to my front door, he was there. We didn't even greet each other. He followed me in and it was done. Oh my god, I'm such a freaking hooker."

I've never seen Amelia speechless until now. After a few seconds of her mouth hanging open she grinned and said, "oh SHIT! Was it awesome?"

Completely disregarding my previous feelings of wanting no one to know I could feel myself grinning from ear to ear, "It was fucking incredible."

"So, what? Fuck Buddies? On Call Room Partners?"

"No way." I gave her a serious look. "This was a one time thing. We said we'd keep in professional."

"You know Maggie and him were dating up until….Holy Shit, up until you got here. He told her he cared about her but it wasn't anything he saw going long term. He's looking for more than just a booty call."

I stared at her, my turn to be speechless. "I don't know what to say to that. The thing is, we're keeping it professional now. And Promise me that you won't tell anyone."

"Oh, I'm not telling anyone. This is a sweet sweet secret that I'm going to keep to myself. And when it gets out, I can rub it in everyone's face that I knew!"

Rolling my eyes at her, I opened the door and we filed out, laughing at Amelia's crazy way of looking at my situation.
