"Tools don't let you down, people do. Tools don't let you down, people do." It was a mantra running through her head, a head which had been recently filled with thoughts about a certain hat - wielding wise-ass who was currently grinning at her over the two medical textbooks he was reading, almost as if he knew she was thinking about him; then again, knowing the shrink, he probably did.
Happy had been lying to herself when she appeared angry at Toby after their failed attempt at a date. She was so scared regarding the feelings she had for the Doc, and his medical blunder gave her the perfect excuse to turn him away. Being a foster kid had taught her that people only let you down: Parents, Social Workers, Foster carers, Teachers... Happy wanted so badly to add Toby to that list, but she couldn't. Toby had been there for her through anything and everything, thick and thin he'd stood beside her, defending her honour even when Walter, his best friend, had a different opinion.
Everything changed once they'd babysat together for Ralph after Walter's accident, the young genius had fallen asleep on the couch after an evening of pizza and computer games; leaving Toby free to seduce her, and God had he succeeded. Not that she planned on telling him of course. How could she when she knew that his ex fiancée still had a hold over him.
"She's moved to England you know" The Doc's smug voice echoed over to her workbench.
"I... Um... Don't really, know what you, kinda mean there... uh, numb-nuts" God she had it bad, stumbling and faltering over one stupid sentence. She glanced at Toby who was grinning at her, as if to say "Of course you weren't thinking about my ex - fiancée, I mean, I'm not a shrink who can read everything you do"
I mean, Happy didn't find that look sexy or anything, not at all, not in the slightest, which is exactly why she had another look. Her fascination with the Doc's smile meant she hadn't noticed the hammer sliding off the workbench above where she was crouched - working on her beloved motorbike. She was completely oblivious to the falling hammer, until it crushed her delicately outstretched fingers.
Not good, Happy thought, before letting loose a string of profanities. Being a shrink, the Doc knew the difference between pain and anger- and the racket coming from Happy's area was definitely pain. Toby rushed over, ill-equipped to deal with what awaited him. He was prepared to pin her down to examine the injured area and then make a judgement. He was not prepared to find strong, independent Happy, curled into a ball, proffering her injured hand towards him.
Toby knew instantly that she had three broken fingers, he also knew instantly that she was not going to like the next words he spoke.
"Gee Happs, you've smashed up your hand real good, I'll take you to the Hospital and a doctor will strap it up for you" Toby was waiting for anger and violence, maybe even a broken finger himself. Happy was full of surprises today, especially when she looked up at him, blinked twice and asked simply...
"You're a Doctor aren't you?"
