A/N: Wow, guys! Thanks for the overwhelming response to the first chapter! I loved reading all your reviews and I have been trying to respond to all of them, obviously, I can't respond to the guest reviews, so to anyone who left me a guest review thank you so much. For those of you who have left me a review and haven't received a reply, it's not because I hate you or I don't appreciate you taking the time out to review, I simply haven't had the time but I promise I will get around to it. Anyway enough from m, here is chapter 2 of Love on the Line, enjoy and let me know what you think of it!
Emily didn't want the darkness to take over, she would much rather watch her best friend give that annoying doctor what'S her face a run for her money, but before she knew it her eyes became way too heavy to the point where it actually hurt to keep them open, then it all went dark…
"Fields, Cavanaugh. That ID you waiting on just came through. The guy you are looking for is Adam Wrays and get this CPD have a warrant out for his arrest." Officer Murphy said while approaching me and Detective Cavanaugh who were simply enjoying our afternoon coffee break.
"For what?" I asked while taking a small sip of my scalding hot coffee.
"Possession of a class A drug with intent to supply to minors." Office Murphy said while smirking at us.
"That has to be our guy! Do you have a last known address?" Cavanaugh asked while smiling brightly at me. We've been trying to catch this guy for months, after we got reports on young people overdosing on a bad strain of drugs that was going around Rosewood High.
"I've already inputted the directions in your GPS and the S.W.A.T team are on standby," Murphy said while smirking at us.
"Thanks, Murph!" I shouted before we ditched the coffee and ran towards the parking garage.
"Em? Guys, she's waking up!" Emily blinked a few times before really taking in her surroundings. The room was pure white, the only color came from the almost blinding blue curtains. The bed wasn't at all comfortable, nothing like her bed at home, the sheets almost felt hard as she moved her left arm against them.
"Em can you hear me?" Hanna appeared over her, making Emily tear her eyes away from the blue curtains to look up at her.
"What happened?" She asked weakly, her throat was dry, too dry making her cough her lungs out.
"Here drink this," Spencer said while moving a straw over to her mouth. Greedily Emily sucked up every single drop of the water in the cup.
"Thanks...Toby?" Emily asked with tears forming in her eyes.
"He's okay Em, they sent him home to rest." Spencer smiled brightly at her. "You saved him Em, all he has is a broken arm," Spencer said with tears in her eyes.
"How long have I been out?" She asked while running her hand through her messy bed hair.
"A day, I didn't think you were going to wake up Em…" Hanna said while taking Emily's good hand in hers.
"I'm okay Han…" Emily said while smiling.
"I'll be the judge of that …" Dr. DiLaurentis said bluntly from the doorway.
"You I remember...unfortunately," Emily said whispering the last part.
"Do you mind giving Ms. Fields and I a moment to carry out the post-operation examination?" Dr. DiLaurentis stared at the three woman that sat on Emily's bed.
"We will just wait outside...come on Hanna," Spencer spoke quickly knowing that Hanna would end up starting something if Spencer hadn't of stepped in.
After everyone left the whole atmosphere changed dramatically, Emily could say without a doubt that she disliked this woman that she has only met once.
"How are you feeling today ? Any tenderness? Swelling?" Dr. DiLaurentis asked while reading over Emily's chart.
"Not a problem doc...can my friends come back in now?" Emily asked sounding like a child in a huff.
"Ms. Fields-"
"Emily…" She interrupted the doctor.
"Excuse me?" Alison asked in shock.
"My name is Emily, I'd prefer you to call me by my name," Emily said sternly.
"That is completely inappropriate Ms. Fields," Alison said without taking her eyes off the chart. "Before you rudely interrupted me I was about to explain to you that I was going to check your wounds for any infection. Is that okay?" Dr. DiLaurentis asked while finally putting the chart down.
"Do what you gotta do doc…" Emily said before a loud yawn escaped from her mouth. Alison quietly made her way over to Emily's right side, first, she lifted the bandage off of Emily's shoulder and quietly admired her own work, she was once told in her final year of residency that she should go into Plastic Surgery, but her mother would never have allowed that.
"Like what you see?" Emily asked with a crooked eyebrow.
"I...umm. Excuse me Ms. Fields, I was simply just checking-" Alison could feel her cheeks start to warm up.
"My wounds for infections, I know. That doesn't explain why you're are blushing...and staring." Emily Interrupted once again.
"I have no idea what you are talking about Ms. Fields and to suggest something like that would be completely inappropriate. I think we are done for the day, I will back in tomorrow to check on your wounds." Alison said quickly, before walking back to her charts on the bed table.
"You forgot my leg…" Emily said while smiling at the clearly flustered doctor.
"I'll have a nurse look at it. Goodbye, Ms. Fields." And with that, Dr. Alison DiLaurentis had exited the room much to Emily's delight. The less time she has to spend with that woman the better, she has the bedside manner of an ape!
"Is the ice queen gone?" Hanna asked as she skipped back into the room obviously already knowing the answer.
"What did she say?" Spencer asked while her and Aria followed behind Hanna normally.
"She's having a nurse finish my examination," Emily smirked at her friends who knew oh too well that Emily had made it her mission to drive the poor doctor out of the room.
Alison was furious. She despised seeming unprofessional and what happened in there whatever it was, was nothing but unprofessional. Sure she has had patients talk to her like she was nothing before, she has had them ignore her and tell her that because she's a woman she can't be a good doctor, or that because she just so happens to have blonde hair she is too stupid to be a doctor, but never in her ten years as a doctor she has never had a patient flirt with her, if you can even call that flirting...wait was that flirting? It's been so long that Alison didn't know if this was flirting. Alison didn't have time to think about that woman and if she was or wasn't flirting with her, so instead she pushed her feelings aside to focus on what really mattered, her job.
"Can you please do a post-operation examination on Ms. Fields," Alison asked the first nurse she ran into on her way out of Emily's room.
"Isn't that usually carried out by the attending on the case?" Alison stared at the young male nurse. She hasn't seen him before; he must be new the poor thing she thought to herself.
"As the attending on the case, I'm telling you to carry out the post-operation examination on Ms. Fields. Now." Alison fake smiled at the man, who now looked absolutely terrified.
"Doctor DiLaurentis, this is Mike it's his first day of training. What is it that you would like done?" Betty, an older nurse who used to work side by side with her mother asked. Betty was the only person in this whole hospital that Alison had any real respect for, mainly because Alison had seen first-hand what happens to someone when they don't respect the great Betty Peters.
"I need someone to carry a post-operation examination on Ms. Fields…please, Nurse Peters." Alison said while sending Mike a death stare that could kill.
"Mike, can you look over Ms. Fields chart for a second so that I can speak to Doctor DiLaurentis in private?" Betty asked rhetorically. Mike smiled at the older woman and took the chart off of Alison, before leaving the two women alone.
"What's wrong Ali?" Betty asked while pulling Alison aside for more privacy.
"Nothing is wrong, I'm just really busy today that's all," Alison said while avoiding eye contact with the older woman.
"Don't give me that bullshit Alison! I've known you since you were a baby and I know when something is bothering you…is it him again?" She asked in a hushed voice. Alison hadn't even thought of him since yesterday, she didn't have time to think of her failed marriage and the current divorce she was going through.
"This has nothing to do with Elliot! I'm stuff having a little trouble with a patient that's all. Can you please just do this for me?" Alison pleaded with her.
"Okay, I'll drop it…for now. I'll come and find you once I'm finished with Ms. Fields." Betty said, sounding completely professional, which is exactly what Alison needed at that moment in time.
"Thank you nurse Peters, have a good day." Without waiting for Betty to respond she took off in the other direction, in search of her other patients and some space. Between Ms. Fields and her flirting/non-flirting and her divorce from her cheating ex, all she wanted was to focus on her work and even that didn't happen today.
