Kerry glanced out the bathroom door at the sleeping figure of her newest lover. She was
distinctly aware that she was Elizabeth's first female lover, which was why she couldn't
help but wonder if this was just curiosity on the surgeon's part. That nagging little
voice in the back of her mind was persistent, arguing that Elizabeth couldn't possibly be
in love with her.
Her hand tightened on the bottle of Hydromorphone. She'd slept through to almost 5 A.M.,
too tired to stay awake even with the harsh pain in her leg. The events of the night
before were still fresh in her mind. If Elizabeth hadn't interfered when she had, Kerry
would've relapsed.
She opened the bottle and dumped the contents into the toilet. She couldn't afford to keep
them any longer, not while she was tempted to use them. She flushed the bowl, watching
with mixed emotions as the pills spun around in the whirlpool of water before
disappearing.
"Why did you do that?"
Kerry glanced up at Elizabeth with mild irritation. She had been sure the surgeon was
still asleep. Which meant the surgeon was either pretending or she was an incredibly light
sleeper. Either option was unpleasant in her mind of thought.
"They were about to expire." Kerry brushed past Elizabeth, hoping that the
surgeon would have enough sense to not question her further.
"Really? I could have sworn they were good for another month."
"You must have read it wrong..." Elizabeth would never buy that, but Kerry was
taking the chance that the small bit of doubt that remark planted was enough to detour the
line of questions.
Elizabeth hesitated in the bathroom door, unable to fully lose the suspicious glint in her
eyes. Kerry noticed it and made a mental note to be more careful around her in the future.
The surgeon was too sharp for her own good, or at least for Kerry's good.
The petite redhead turned on her most reassuring smile and stepped up to the surgeon until
their bodies just barely touched. The heat radiating between them doubled under the sudden
increase of sexual tension.
Kerry allowed herself to feel pleasure at the shallow breaths that came from the surgeon
with half-lidded eyes. She brushed her hands lightly up Elizabeth's arms as they pulled
her closer to the surgeon. Running them over the soft rose-scented skin and over the
shoulders.
Her left hand cupped the back of Elizabeth's neck, guiding Elizabeth into a probing kiss.
Their lips shyly touched at first, no longer about lust. Kerry deepened the kiss, their
tongues dancing slowly together.
Elizabeth backed Kerry up against the bed, her right hand unbuttoning the annoying
nightshirt that was in her way. She was definitely going to have to break Kerry of that
habit. She finally came to the last button and threw the shirt to the floor.
The kiss came to an end as Kerry lay down on the bed, patiently watching Elizabeth take
off the light robe that she'd borrowed. The surgeon stood in front of her new lover,
looking over the imperfect body that lay stretched out in front of her.
She could tell that Kerry wanted to cover her body. The confidence that filled those
light-colored eyes everyday in the ER was now replaced with fear and doubt. Elizabeth
wondered how Kerry had gotten so scarred, and not just physically.
Pushing away those thoughts, she climbed onto the bed. Their lips met immediately in a
quick kiss before she let her lips start the long trip down Kerry's body. Each scar and
imperfection fascinated her, holding her attention. Kerry's body tensed up every time she
touched a new scar, gradually relaxing under her caresses.
She slid lower to her final destination and concentrated on her one true goal. The quiet
cries of her partner driving her on, she finally lost herself in her quest.
The figure stood silently outside the cracked bedroom door, listening to the joyful noises
of Kerry. Each moan made the anger become harsher. She stared into the dresser mirror,
watching callously as Kerry came and pulled Elizabeth up into a kiss, rolling the surgeon
onto her back.
So THAT was the woman that Kerry had cheated on her with. This was an interesting twist,
and one they would both sorely regret. If Corday wanted to play then they would play, but
the rules had just changed drastically.
She quickly slipped down the stairs and out of the house; she had a lot to plan.
Jasmine Tain briskly swayed down the surgical hall, the anger radiating off her in waves
that sent everyone scattering. Weaver was deadly when she was in a good mood and when she
was in a bad mood...? And if Jasmine was Kerry's lover that meant she had to have enough
gusto to not only handle Kerry's moods but probably give as good as she got.
The Asian came to a halt outside theater six while Romano strutted out. Falling into step
with him, she added more sway to her hips and bounce to her chest, making his breathing
speed up noticeably.
"Dr. Tain, how nice to see you..." His eyes darted down to her ample chest that
was made even more pronounced by the skin-tight blouse she was wearing. Licking his lips,
he noted the stiff nipples straining against the thin white material. 'She couldn't
possibly be wearing a bra.'
"Could I talk to you for a minute?" She slid her hand lightly down his back and
lowered her husky voice. "In private..."
Romano was no fool. He was well aware of how much women hated of him and his attitude. For
a woman to flirt with him, much less show any interest in him at all, was rare. Unless the
women in question needed something from him. "Of course." He deftly walked into
his office and leaned against the front of his desk.
Jasmine smiled sweetly at him, shutting and locking the door behind her. "I heard
that Corday's been giving you some trouble."
Romano kept his face neutral while she crossed the short distance between them. He now
knew exactly what she wanted from him and he was going to milk this for all it was worth.
"And you just happen to be wanting her position?"
Jasmine pressed up against him letting her left hand travel along his upper thigh.
"Let's face it, Robby, she's not right for the position. Not ruthless enough."
"Like you?" Robert asked with a smug smile.
"Like me." She wrapped her arm around his neck and kissed him, her hand finding
the black leather belt he was wearing.
Robert moved away from her lips, eyeing her breasts greedily. "And just why should I
give you her position?"
"Let me show you my credentials..." Jasmine slowly unbuttoned her shirt and let
it fall to the floor. Kissing him again, she let the smugness of conquest take over.
"Who's Nicole?"
Kerry's head snapped around to stare into the expressive eyes of her lover. "Where'd
you hear about her?" Jasmine was the only one who knew about Nicole.
"You spoke her name last night."
"What exactly did I say?" The old memories recent events had dredged up
frightened her. Frightened her because she kept most of them so close to her heart and the
rest completely buried. The idea of having given some of those secrets away in her sleep
made her feel vulnerable.
"You asked her not to leave you."
"Is that all?"
Elizabeth tightened her arms around Kerry's body. "You said that you loved her."
Kerry frowned slightly at the jealously that showed clearly on Elizabeth's face for a
second. She still didn't trust her, but then again she didn't trust anybody. Trusting
people only brought pain and hurt. Something she wasn't willing to do. "She was my
first female lover."
"I see...Is she a doctor?"
Kerry closed her eyes in an attempt to keep her emotions locked away. "She wanted to
be."
"What happened?"
"She died during our last year of med school." Kerry rolled onto her side, no
longer wanting to see Elizabeth. It had taken her almost three years to let anyone else
touch her, and at times being with a lover was a painful reminder of what she'd lost.
Elizabeth spooned tightly against Kerry with immediate guilt and relief. She had been
worried about Nicole being competition and she wasn't even alive. Yet somehow she doubted
that this was the whole story. There was still the questions about Kerry's scars and her
weird behavior with the pills.
"I'm sorry." And she was, through her guilt over being jealous.
Jasmine finished pulling on her pants with satisfaction. That was the good thing about
having a man as a superior, their brains were al ways located in one place. The smirk on
the short man's face was proof of that. The grin on her face widened, sometimes life was
just to easy.
"Do you mind if I tell her the news?" Jasmine could just taste the shocked anger
that the British slut would have.
"And just what news are you talking about?"
She paused, not liking the sudden glint in his eyes. "About my being the new
assistant chief of surgery."
"I never said you got the position." Romano plopped down into his office chair
and slammed his feet onto his desk. "If you're willing to go so far to get Lizzie's
job then what would be stopping you from going after my job. At least Lizzie's
predictable."
Jasmine narrowed her eyes at the building anger. She eyed him wondering what he'd do if he
ever found out about his precious Lizzie and...
"Of course you're right. I just thought that with her new relationship you'd be
concerned about keeping her in her present position." She deftly started to leave.
"What new relationship?"
She smiled to herself. "With Weaver." She turned to him with a slow grin at the
numerous emotions that flashed across his face.
"Weaver? But..." He stopped talking, not sure what to say. The idea of his
Lizzie with another women wasn't something he could picture. He just couldn't imagine her
naked body lying twisted with Kerry's equally naked body. Wreathing and screaming out,
covered with sweat and... "I think I'm going to have a little talk with her."
Jasmine smirked darkly. 'Let's see Miss Meddler get out of this one.'
Elizabeth walked lazily down the surgical hall, unable to keep the grin off her face for
more than a minute. For once she didn't mind having to see Tain, as bad as the woman was
she was no longer a problem.
"There you are 'Lizzie'..."
Elizabeth smiled sweetly at the dripping sarcasm of the newest surgeon. The young Asian
had a dangerous look on her face that made her wonder what she was up to. "I see
you've been hanging around Robert, and enjoying it I'm sure."
"Hmm, yes, well speaking of Robert...He wants to see you in his office.
Immediately."
"Does he? Well I guess I'd better see what he wants then." Elizabeth walked off
at the same leisurely pace. She wasn't about to give Jasmine the satisfaction of seeing
her look anything but calm.
Truthfully, she was slightly agitated. Robert had come very close to suspending her the
day before. She had managed to get off with merely losing her days off for the next month,
but he was more than capable of changing his mind on a moment's notice.
She paused briefly outside his office, then briskly walked in. The air had a musky odor
that was suspiciously familiar. A blue surgical coat was barely visible, lying carelessly
underneath the desk. Robert grinned in a way that reminded her of a wolf having just
caught a rabbit.
"Dr. Tain said you wanted to see me."
"That's right. You see, I heard a rumor earlier and I was hoping you could clear it
up for me."
"What rumor?" Elizabeth asked quietly.
"That you and Weaver are an item." Robert reached under the desk and picked up
his surgical coat. His eyes drilled into her as he stood up and suavely pulled it on.
"That's right."
Robert walked around the desk with mild surprise. "Well that explains why you so
worried about her yesterday...." His expression turned
serious with a mixture of hurt. "Lizzie, if you had told me this to begin with we
could have avoided yesterday's little confrontation." He straightened up and closed
off his emotions. "Under the circumstances, I'm going to assume that your concern for
Kerry effected your judgment and let you off the hook, but the next time this happens,
I'll suspend you."
Elizabeth watched him walk to the office door with shock. She'd seen his harsh side so
much that she'd forgotten that he was even capable of being kind. She felt a sudden
gratitude towards him for at least trying to understand.
"Oh by the way Lizzie, if you two ever need a doctor, I make house calls." He
sauntered off, whistling softly.
She shook her head, any gratitude she had felt now completely gone. It amazed her how he
could be such a jerk most of the time, even when he was being kind.
