Simple Mistakes Part 1

It was very cold that night, the ER became very slow

when it snowed. Everybody in there right minds was

at home nice and warm. Everyone except the staff

of the ER.

Kerry Weaver began to wipe off the snow that had

fallen on her as she walked through the doors of the

ambulance bay.

"Where is everybody?"she asked Jerry who sat at the

desk eating a doughnut.

Jerry looked up at Kerry. He wiped the crumbs off of

his beard.

"Carter and Lucy are in the lounge, Romano is up in

the OR where he belongs, Maggie is sleeping in

exam room 3, Doug and Carol are off and Mark is also

sleeping in exam room 4,"he said.

"Thanks Jerry,"said Kerry she then walked over to

the lounge and found Carter and Lucy in a compromising

position on the couch.

"Carter!Lucy!"barked Kerry.

"Oh God! Dr. Weaver!"said Carter suprised,"Uhhh...this

isn't what it looks like."he was hurrying putting on

his shirt.

"Umm..Dr. Weaver,I..uh..really should be leaving now,

"said Lucy as the straightened her skirt and was

putting her blouse back on. She hurried and ran out

of the lounge.

"Carter what were you doing? No don't tell me I think

I already know! What were you thinking Carter?! Lucy

is a med-student!"

"I know, I guess I just wasn't thinking we were talking

then one thing led to another and, well I think you

know the rest."

"I expected more of you Carter, you really disappointed

me,"said Kerry as she walked out of the lounge.

She headed down the hall to find Lucy in the bathroom

washing her face.

"Dr. Weaver..umm..I'm really sorry about what happened

in there."

"So am I Lucy, I expected more out you and Carter I am

really disappointed in the two of you, I mean what

were you thinking?"

"I...I uh...-" Kerry cut her off

"No save it! I want you and Carter in the lounge

in twenty minutes, we are going to have to discuss

what's going to come out of this."

*20 minutes later*

Carter, Lucy and Kerry were all sitting around the

table, Kerry for obvious reasons sitting between the

two of them.

"You do know of course that we are going to have

to do something about this, it can't just be left

un-delt with."

They both nodded.

"Lucy, I think that you are going to be assigned

to another resident and if this happens again

you will be terminated. Now I am not going

to report this because it wont look good on

either of your records, which happen to be

clear, but just because they are clear now

it does not mean that they will stay that

way if you continue this. Any Questions?"

"No,"they said in unison.

"Well good-"

"Actually, who will I be assigned to?"asked

Lucy.

"Hmm...good question...well how about

Maggie Doyle...no she has a student already

well...I guess nobody right now you will just tag

along to different doctors from day to day until

your ER rotation is over...is that clear?"

"Crystal clear."said Lucy.

They all got up and left the lounge Lucy walked over

to the desk and was immediately bombarded

with questions from the nurse's and Jerry.

"So is it true?"

"Is what true?"asked Lucy

"That you and Carter were...ya know...in the lounge?"

"Umm..I got to go,"she said.

*A month later*

Lucy was coming down with something she thought

but then remembered that she was acting the same

way the Carol did when she was...was...

pregnate.*oh God no!* she thought.

She immediately got a pregnancy test, it

said that she WAS pregnant.

*Oh God what am i gonna do? *

She left the bathroom and went to find Carol.

She was with a patient,"Carol! Carol I need you

quick."she shouted.

Carol rushed over there,"What is it

Lucy, where is the patient?"

"there is no patient Carol, but I need some

help, I just did a pregnancy test and...

umm..it was positive!"cried Lucy

"Oh, Lucy, who is the lucky man?"she

said comforting her.

"I...think its Carter..."she said sadly.

"Oh,"said Carol,"do you love him?"

"No! I hate him, oh Carol what am I

going to do?"she asked her.

"You have to tell him, as much as you

don't want to you just have to tell

him..I had to and now you will"

"Okay,well IM gonna go find him

right now,"said Lucy

"If you need anyhelp or anything

you know my number,"she said

"Thanks Carol."

Carter was working on his charts when

Lucy found him, she hesitated and almost

turned around but he said "Hi Lucy"

"Uh hi Carter, I uh...have to tell you

something..."

"What is it?"he asked concerned.

"Im pregnant...."
