Hey,
first,thanks again for the reviews!
So, I was asked whether I could write about drama between Stephanie and April.
I already thought about it, but the problem is that in the show April treats Stephanie like there was no "Stackson" (Urgh, how I hate this word, and it's not even a relationship,though -.-). I guess I carry on like this for a few chapters but towards the 13th or 14th chapter it's going to change.
So thank you for the idea! :)

Chapter III:Sloan's Advice

"But there's something inside that I need to release
Which way is right, which way is wrong
How do I say that I need to move on
You know we're headed separate ways"

"Do you want to tell him? Or should I? Or should I leave you alone for a moment?", Jackson asked unconfident before the two entered Matthew's room.

"You go with me, you tell him and I'll play the worried girlfriend, what about that?", April asked not a bit insecure.

Jackson was surprised how April turned from the crying, almost-lost-her-boyfriend girl into that hot, confident and perky woman. He couldn't help himself, he just started to smile mischievously.

"Hey, how are you?", asked April immediately when they entered the room.

"Shouldn't I lay here in bandages to protect my new skin?", Matthew answered with a smile.

"Yeah, as far as that goes, I haven't operated you yet, we had complications...you coded. The reason for this complications was your allergic to the anesthetic, you had a bad allergic shock which caused a cardiac arrest", Jackson went on and waited for Matthew's reaction.

"I...I-I-I coded? So I can't undergo surgery?", Matthew asked and locked in shock to April.

"Don't you worry, I operate you, but this time you get a local anesthetic. I wanted to inform you before we begin something without your permission. Hope that's okay for ya.", Jackson said with a smile.

"I'm fine with it, thanks. So when do I'll get the surgery?", asked Matthew.

"Tomorrow morning, so we can be sure all the anesthetic is out of your body.", completed Jackson.

"Is it okay, when I talk for a moment to Matt?", April asked Jackson and he nodded.

"So I see you tomorrow morning in the OR, Matthew.", Jackson ended the conversation and left the room.

"Thanks for saving my life, April," Matthew said to April with a smile that showed all his love to her.

April bit on her bottom lip and admitted: "Actually brought Jackson you back to life... I stood there in shock..."

Matthew looked at her with a unbelievable sad glimpse. "You just stood there? And I thought you would do that for me..."

"What? I saw my boyfriend coding, sorry if I didn't jump on his torso immediately and brought him back to life! I was paralyzed!", April defended furious.

"If you haven't got those fast reflexes, how can you be a surgeon?", Matthew argued upset.

"I never expected something like this from you, Matthew.", April whispered disappointed and left the room.

Jackson walked into the attendings lounge, finding Karev having lunch. He was still a little pissed that he interrupted them, but it was in Karev's nature to see in every close friendly relationship a sexual one. But he wasn't so wrong...

" Tell me, what's going on between you and Kepner?" Alex inquired with a mischievously smile.

" Something that's none of your business, Alex." Jackson responded while he made a coffee.

" I know that you have feelings for her. Go and tell her!" Alex advised and Jackson sat down.

"Sometimes I hope you'd be more like Sloan. He always had the best advices..." Jackson considered out loud.

And then suddenly the insight struck him by lightning. Sloan had given him the advice. Jackson remembered the last words of his mentor:

,,I want you to promise me something... If you love someone, you'll tell them. Even if you're scared that it's not the right thing, even if you're scared that it will cause problems, even if you're scared that it'll burn your life to the ground. You say it and you say it out loud."

The plastic attending got up fast on his feet and argued to himself:

"I'm such a dork. God, I can't believe it, I...urgh!"

"Finally you see it, dude!" Alex laughed and looked at Jackson.

"But I can't...now. I have to..." Jackson murmured to himself.

"Man, can you please talk louder, I'd like to understand ya!" Alex said annoyed.

Jackson should've told April so much earlier, he shouldn't have told her only the he has feelings for her. But he couldn't just walk to April and admit that he's in love with her, she was currently in a relationship, it would be crazy if he'd do. But what if April and Matthew would be happy forever, when should he tell her? But he was also her best friend, he should be happy for her, and do everything to support their relationship. Jackson was totally in a jam...

"Whatever, Alex... Don't you have the shift tonight in the ER?"

"Yeah, why you're asking?"

"Actually, I just want to ask you whether we could swap our shifts," Jackson asked and sat down again.

"Oh! Sure, Robbins will be there, so yeah...we can change." Alex replied and ate a part of his sandwich

"Thanks, man!" Jackson smiled, it was good that they changed, April had her shift tonight too, so maybe he could spend some time with her...

"Wait a hot second, isn't Kepner tonight in the pit too?" His friend asked with raised eyebrows.

"Possible..." Jackson smiled mischievously and left the room...

I second-guess my Matthew and April break-up, but I would like to read what you think about it, though. :)
Because I have this crappy english exam about argumentativ writing next week I can't post the next chapter until wednesday, I'm sorry :(
