I have a funny story that can potentially be a fic prompt for a hospital romcom.
Basically I’m close to the end of my Trauma rotation with the Orthopaedics. I ended up being paired with this guy, attending the 4th year not officially in my uni/hospital but only for a 1 year stay. Anyway we had a lot of shifts together and I think I was being oblivious but it is possible he is crushing over me.
Let me tell you what happened so you get why I think so.
At the beginning of the week, I planned my shifts in order to have one 12 shift on Thursday and stay at home on Friday. He wasn’t feeling it lmao and started begging me to be here on Friday to.
On Thursday, he got this pen. I tested it and I liked it. It was soft and blue, so I asked if I could have it. He said no. But later he begged me again “please, you can’t leave me alone with him [the senior doctor in the ER], you know why [we dont like how he works].
I was like “why would I spend the friday afternoon, possibly night, with you in this ambulatory? You don’t even give me a pen!”
And he said “you can have it…”
*i take the pen and put it in my white coat pocket*
“…If you come here on Friday” and he takes the pen back from my pocket! I gasped, affronted.
I said “FINE.” But only because it was more of a pride thing. I’ll get the fucking pen.
So on Friday, I enter the room and greet him, asked how the morning went. He was typing on the keyboard and didn’t even mind me but then he calls me.
“Angie”
“Mh”, mind you I was on my phone, scrolling Louis pic and his new hair.
And he throws the pen at me.
After that we got an emergency, we managed it fine. He was dealing with a huge wound on the leg with bone exposure and all, I was trying to stabilise the patient with a bit of morphine, a vein access and then I put on my sterile gloves to give the wound some stitches and we did it just fine. The other guys (not really nurses but sort of) put on the antibiotics we prescribed and then removed it when it was finished and forgot to close the access so the patient was bleeding and staining the sheets.
They got mad at me (????) because I didn’t close the access. I felt mortified because I didn’t realise and thought I really forgot. He saw I was upset and as the guys where blaming me, he kinda took it easy saying ��cmon she did all the rest by herself, easy on her, she’s great” (i even brought in 5L of water for the wound).
I was furious. F U R I O U S.
He read the room and let it go. Then he approached me again when we were alone. I was like “listen, I didn’t do that. They forgot it open, not me.”
He said “I know, are you still mad” YEAH?????? “Cmon I’ll let you fix the dislocation then”
:))))))
