Ethan's day didn't get any better - if anything, it got worse. The 'Spitting Lady' had already dribbled over the back of his hand twice, and Mrs Beauchamp had decided that it would be a nice idea for Dr Hardy to do overtime.

Although the day hadn't been much of a good one, there was one thought that kept him going - Eliza. From what the young doctor had now worked out, she was the younger sister of Max Walker, (the cocky Porter dependably going out with Zoe,) and had just got a transfer.

Although Ethan did not usually get involved with women, and their wellbeing, he couldn't help but feel a somewhat attraction towards Elsie.

It wasn't like him, not at all. His brother usually dealt in that department. But, he couldn't help to control his emotions. Maybe, just try and act cool around her. Then again, for Ethan to act cool, is like Dylan paying everybody in the ED a compliment.

"Ethan." Came a cold voice from behind him. He turned around to see Connie, her arms folded, the scowl on her face becoming ever darker. "Emergency call coming through." She sharply spoke. "Your needed in Resus in two minutes."

The young man watched as Connie swept away, taking the icy feeling with her. Ethan sighed, making his way towards the staffroom so he could go and get a drink before starting. Before he could even get into the room, another voice trailed from behind him.

"Nibbles." It said. No doubt, it was Cal. Ethan turned round, seeing his brother standing there, the smug smile on his face. The one that usually meant-

"Have you seen the girl yet? Looks quite nice." He swooned, seeing her as another girl who he could be the 'Knight in Shining armour.'

"Yes, I have." Ethan retaliated. "But I really don't think she would be interested in you." He snapped back. Unlike him, but he didn't stop himself. Without another word, he pushed the door open into the Staffroom, so he could get a drink.


"Okay, but if you had to choose."

"Shut up Max. Go annoy Dylan or something."

Eliza was on her way to Resus, but was 'kindly' interrupted by Max, asking her the most ridiculous question of who would she rather go out with? Dylan or Noel. She ignored it. In the family, it would be her who would learn to cope with Max.

"Right, I'm off to Resus." She announced. Before she could take another step, Max reached out, adjusting her stethoscope, in a fatherly way. Well, he had been the one to look up to as a child, so...

"Don't kill too many patients. I'll be watching, Wazowski. Always watching." He said, sliding off to the corner, whilst impersonating Roz from 'Monsters INC." Elsie rolled her dark eyes, before making her way towards Resus.


After both patients had been stabilised, cared for, and checked out, Elsie found herself back in the Staffroom, ready to depart and go back to her mothers house. Carelessly, her hand rooted through the back of the locker, trying to find her backpack, and her...

Coat.

The girl mentally slapped herself. During the earlier events of the day, she had left her coat on the street, and god knows where it would be now. Probally stolen by somebody, or left in the middle of the road, because nobody bothered to pick it up. She sighed, pulling on her backpack, ready for the coldness outside. The bitter sharp-

"You Okay?"

Eliza turned around to see none other than Dr Knight, leaning against the doorway. He had a smirk on his face, the sleves of his grey jumper, covering the backs of his hands. Elsie turns back to her bag, sighing.

"Yup. Just forgot my coat, that's all." She murmured, picking up her bag and making her way towards the door. Before she could escape, Caleb took her by the shoulders, holding her at arm lengh.

"You need a coat. Seriously?" He said, taking his coat which was resting on his arms. He carefully drapped it around her shoulders, tieing the sleves as it it was a cape. The girl showed a small smile, caustiously looking up at Cal.

"Oh, erm...thanks." She said, before making her way out of the Staffroom, Cal close on her feet.

"So..." Cal began, pushing his hands in his pockets. "Your first day?" He stated. Eliza kept waking, pulling her hair out of its high ponytail as she did so.

"Yup. Quite good." She replied, before picking up her pace, getting closer to the exit of the ED. Right now, she just wanted to go home, and sleep until the sky was made of chicken. She never knew work was this tiring.

Before she could escape the doors, the girl saw Cal, running towards Ethan. A puzzled look spread across her face, but soon shrugged it off.

Tomorrow was another day. One, with which she hoped something good would come out of.


Well, there you have it! Part 2. I didn't realise how short it was, and I apologise. The next part will be longer. And Have More Ethan.

Thanks and big hugs to ETWentHome for being my First Review! I'm glad your enjoying it so far, and don't think my story too suckish.
