"Hey Julie!" Izzie greeted her patient as she walked into the room with George trailing behind her.
Julie looked up from the magazine in her lap and smiled at Izzie "Hey Dr. Stevens. How are you today?" she asked looking at George who came around the other side of her bed and crossed his arms.
"Good. How about you? Any luck keeping food down today?" Izzie asked as she took a pen out and opened up Julie's chart.
Julie shook her head "No I ate some jell-o this morning and then I got to see it come back up. That helped me decide never to eat jell-o again." she explained looking over at George in confusion.
George noticed the confusion in her eye and cleared his throat slightly and took a step forward "Hi I'm Dr. O'Malley I'm just shadowing Dr. Stevens today." he said introducing himself.
"Yeah it's better if you just ignore him.." Izzie said still writing a few things down on the file.
"Why's that? Is he not a good doctor?" Julie asked looking between the both of them.
"No it's just if you ignore him he won't talk." Izzie said looking up at Julie.
George uncrossed his arms "Hey -"
"So today you will go in for some tests and we'll know where to go after that." Izzie explained cutting George off.
"Do you think it's serious?" she asked with slight panic in her voice.
"It's shouldn't be," George said before Izzie "most likely it's just the flu but if it's something else it's rare that it is something death defying." George said trying not to smile at the fact that Izzie was sending him some dark glares right now.
Julie looked from George to Izzie "Is that true Dr. Stevens?" she asked.
Izzie looked down at Julie and forced a smile "Yeah," she hissed out "it's true." Julie let out a deep breath and sat back on the bed more comfortably.
George closed the door behind them as they left Julie's room. The second she heard the door click shut Izzie wiped around ready to shout at him.
George held up his hand "Before you shout can I say one thing?" he asked.
Izzie clenched her jaw tighter "What?" she asked through her teeth.
George smiled slyly "You're really sexy when you're angry."
Izzie almost started to shake with anger "ARGG." she grunted loudly as she turned around and put the chart away at the nurse's station. George smiled wider and followed after her. As Izzie wrote some stuff down on her new chart she tried to ignore George who was hovering over her shoulder trying to see what the next case they were going to was. After another minute or so Izzie looked up from the chart "Will you stop that?" she asked annoyed.
"Stop what?" George asked trying to play dumb.
Izzie turned and looked at him "Stop hovering. It's distracting."
George smiled "Me being close to you is distracting?"
"That's not what I meant."
"But that's the way you made it sound."
"But that's not what I - "Izzie stopped mid sentence and closed her eyes and took a deep breath trying to cool her anger down. George couldn't help but laugh lightly he loved how he could get under her skin and push her buttons. He may have only known her 3 hours but so far they have been 3 pretty entertaining hours. "You know what?" Izzie said as she opened her eyes.
"What?" George asked still smiling at her.
Izzie gave him a fake smile "I am going to take the high ground here and just ignore you."
"How is that the high ground?" George asked as Izzie grabbed the chart on the counter and started walking down the hallway.
"Because if I ignore you, you wont annoy me which means you wont end up leaving this place in a body bag." she explained as George caught up to "See? High ground." she said as she turned the corner with George following after her.
"ARGG!" Izzie grunted as she slammed her tray down and slumped into one of the open chairs at Meredith, Alex, and Lexie's lunch table. "I hate him!!" she almost shouted.
"Who?" Alex asked as he poked at his food.
"Who else?" Izzie grumbled as she rested her head down on the table.
Meredith looked up from the book she was reading "Are you still going on about George?" she asked slightly annoyed.
"Dr. O'Malley?" Lexie said perking her head up at his name.
"Yes." Izzie moaned at even the sound of his name. "He is the biggest pain in the ass ever."
"Really?" Lexie said as she took a bit out of her salad "I think he's kind of sweet." Alex shifted his gazed to her.
Izzie raised her head and looked at her "You sound like Meredith."
"You think he's sweet?" Alex asked defensively.
Lexie looked over and smiled at him "Not as sweet as you." she said running her hand down his arm and putting her hand in his.
Izzie rolled her eyes "If you guys are going to do that please go somewhere else." Lexie and Alex both looked at her then rolled their eyes as they let each others hands go.
"Why do you hate him so much Iz?" Meredith asked putting her book down on the table.
Izzie sat back in her chair and ran her hand over her tied back hair "He is just so annoying and rude and he drives me absolutely crazy. He just keep trying to get under my skin and it makes me just want to slap him across the face." she said clenching her jaw in anger.
Alex looked over at the door then back at Izzie "This probably isn't the best time to tell you this but he is walking into the cafeteria right now."
"Damn it!" she said sliding lower into her chair hoping he wouldn't see her. "He better not sit down here." she hissed.
"He's not." Meredith said "It looks like he is sitting with someone else."
Izzie sat up straighter and saw that he was on the other end of the room sitting down at an empty table with Nurse Olivia. "Good. I have had enough of him today." Izzie said poking at her food.
Meredith stood up "Well I have to go prep for the Chiefs surgery. I will talk to you guys later." she said walking away.
"Actually I have to go too." Alex said standing up and grabbing his tray.
Lexie looked up at him "Yeah I'll head out with you." she stood up and grabbed her tray "See ya Iz."
Izzie grunted slightly then looked over at George who was whispering something in Olivia's ear. Olivia giggled at whatever he had just said, Izzie just rolled her eyes, gave him a look of disgust and slumped back in her chair "Manwhore." she said to herself.
