Dr. Heartbreaker

It was her first day on the job. First of many days there at L.A. Hospital. She was able to work in the maternity ward section. Where life was born. Sometimes life was not born. Emily Summers still loved being able to see happy faces take home their little bundles of joy. Or see a baby get adopted into a loving family. That made her training all the more while. All but working for cocky, know it all Dr. Brinks. The baby doctor. The woman nurses joked saying he was a baby doctor. Because many of the nurses there had slept with him. Emily Summers was going to make sure that she was not one nurse that was going to be under his belt of many other woman. She was here to do her job. And that was it. Emily tried her best not to let him get under her skin. He would try to do that on a daily basis. He knew just how to push her buttons. Emily was checking over her charts. Dr. Cocky came walking by. Dr. Cocky was her secret nickname for him. Emily focused on her chart work. "Is that Mrs. North's chart? Did her blood work come back?" demands Dr. Cocky. She nods. She hands him the chart. He flips it open not waiting for her to. He reads it over. "Alright. Now we are getting somewhere" he mutters under his breath. He rubs his forehead as though he was stressed. He very well might be. He worked long hours. He was always on call. He was good at what he did. Even if he was cocky. A know it all. "Come with me to her room" ♥☆♥☆♥ She nods. She follows him down the hall. Trying to keep up at his pace. His white coat flapped in the breeze his legs made as they walked. He had a pair of glasses resting on top of his head. He had the chart tucked under his arm. They go inside of room 103 there in the wing. There was Mrs. Francis North with her husband Herbert. "Hello there Mrs. North. Mr. North. We have your blood work back" Dr. Brinks tells them. He flips open the chart. "Is the baby alright? The baby is to early to be here" worries Mrs. North. "We will be sure to do whatever it takes in our powers to make the baby get here healthy and safe" promises Emily. "It seems that Mrs. North has a case of preeclampsia her hands and feet are swelling. Her blood pressure is high. I want a blood transfusion done on her. See if that might help low anemia in her blood. We also got back your thyroid test. You are high up there on the charts. That is not good for the baby given your history" warns Dr. Brinks. Poor Mrs. North looks close to tears. "I lost two others due to my health, but we had little Bradly the other time. We thought we would try one more time. Then this...it was going well" sniffs Mrs. North. Emily places a hand on her shoulder. Then passes Mrs. North a box of tissues. "The baby may come early if we have to induce you. Other than that, the baby looks fine. It is you we are worried about Mrs. North" states Dr. Brinks. She nods. "Do whatever you need to do" says her husband. Mrs. North sniffles into her tissue blowing her nose. "You had one child. This one will be on the way" Emily promises. "After this I would like my tubes to be tied" mentions Mrs. North softly. "That can be arranged" offers Dr. Brinks. ♥☆♥☆♥ After Dr. Brinks talks things over with the couple they walk out of the room together. Dr. Brinks was standing in the hall. Emily waited on him to bark another order at her while she wait there for the chart back. He was making notes with his pen. She could not help but notice how handsome his face was when he was stern. Studious. Thoughtful. He always looked very serious. She did not think she ever saw the man smile much or laugh. He was all work and no play. That was for certain. "Dr. Brinks, do you want me to get her blood transfusion ready?" asks Emily softly. He nods. "Yes, Miss. Summers. Do that. Change her thyroid dose as well" orders Dr. Brinks. He hands her the chart back. "There in the chart I made of note of the dose" She nods. "Yes sir" she replies. "DR. BRINKS!! Mrs. Fagon is going into labor!" calls our nurse Nell Horton from down the hall. "She is at eight centimeters'" she calls out. "Baby is on the way" Dr. Brinks answers. He jogs down the hall way. Emily sighs. At least she was free from Dr. Cocky for a little while. Doing her work. "How are things? Your first day here?" asks her new friend Barb Wilters. "I like it. Everyone seems nice" Emily replies. "Everyone? Are you sure everyone?" jokes Barb. "Well almost everyone" laughs Emily. "You met Dr. Brinks?" asks Barb. "Yes, he has made me do work all day long. You know he never welcomed me to the team" she grumbles. "He does sometimes. If he remembers to. When we have staff, meetings" says Barb. "He is a hard man. But a good.... oh, never mind" giggles Barb as she blushes. "You to?" groans Emily. "Me to. Well I was after Tiffany. Sarah before Tiffany. They were new" says Barb. "What does he do break in the new girls?" jokes Emily. "Kind of" laughs Barb. She smirks as she pulls her light blond hair tighter on top of her head. "He won't get me in his bed" promises Emily. "Never say never. I thought he would not get me. But girl he still has. He is done with me. To bad he is not the marrying kind" mentions Barb wistfully. "He would make a fine catch" "Looks like everyone around here has the case of Dr. Cocky flu virus" jokes Emily. Barb bursts out laughing. "Dr. Cocky orders you both to get back to work. False alarm on the baby. She was not ready yet. Barb keep an eye on Mrs. Fagon" demands Dr. Brinks from behind them. Emily feels her face grow a shade of red. He heard her... "Yes sir" says Barb as she takes off down the hall. "Welcome to the team Emily Summers. We can always use a new nurse" mutters Dr. Brinks. "Now get back to work" he orders. She nods. "Yes sir" she replies before rushing off. ♥☆♥☆♥☆♥☆♥☆♥☆♥♥☆
