"Would you like something to eat, Mr. Adesso?" The woman said in a squeaky voice which Mateo guessed she meant was to be sexy. Well, it wasn't.
"I thought I was on a liquid diet." He said coldly. He was not going to give her any reaction.
"But I can sneak something in if you want me to." She continued with her annoying squeaks.
"I will pass." He said and turned his head quickly when he heard the door creak open.
"Dr. Johnson is here." One of his men, Wells, said as he let her in.
"Dr. Johnson." Mateo nodded in response to her greeting smile. She was followed by a man twice her size.
"This is my intern, Dr. Eric Fentell." She smiled, pointing at the guy.
"Um.. You are the doctor?" Adam asked out of nowhere. The man doesn't hesitate to flirt when he sees a decent woman. Emphasis on decent. That's why he didn't make a move on big-boobed brunette over there.
"Yes, I am an Orthopedic surgeon." She smiled, holding her hand out to the brunette nurse.
She looked at her confused and took her hand which made the doctor roll her eyes while the intern let out a laugh before coughing to cover it up.
"The test results, Bianca. I had asked for a CT scan?"
Bianca nodded looking quite embarrassed.
Mateo was enjoying it. He liked to see Dr. River Johnson assert her authority, though he had seen it only twice before.
"How old are you?" Adam butted in again.
"I don't answer personal questions while at work." Before he could ask her any more questions, she turned to her patient. "How are you doing today?"
"I can't feel my leg." He told her truthfully, almost annoyed about it.
"Like literally?" She asked as she removed the comforter from Mateo's injured leg and ran her fingers along the sole, tickling it.
"Felt that?"
He nodded.
She took her stethoscope out from inside her coat and used the metallic part to knock on different parts of his leg, up to his injury.
She looked up and he nodded every time he felt it.
"Then it's all good. I know it's irritating to stay in bed all day but it's for your own good." She said as she took the report from the nurse who was glaring at her.
What's her problem? And why am I in the care of such an unprofessional woman? Mateo thought, annoyed at Adam even more because Susan was a perfectly decent nurse and he had fucked it up. She would have been extremely cautious if she had stayed and would make all of them uncomfortable and that was the reason he scared her off.
River was looking through the papers when the brunette spoke,
"When was the last time you washed your hair, Dr. Johnson? It looks like poop covered pubic hair."
She had the attention of the entire room, repulsed and irritated by her sudden idiotic question. Except Dr. Johnson of course. She let her inner voice do the screaming and kept a poker face.
What does that even mean? Can we just punch her crooked nose into place please??? It pleaded.
River didn't even look up from the report as she spoke,
"I guess how you know what that looks like, is a question for another time."
The brunette was mortified as the entire room burst out laughing.
Dr. Johnson looked up and gave her a smile, handing the clipboard back.
"And I don't answer personal questions while on duty." Her face hardened. "Neither should you ask them."
"I am sorry Doctor." The woman mumbled before going back to her station.
"Everything looks good. I think we can remove the nurse in two days." She said, her smile never wavering. "And you can start taking solid food as well. "
"Oh?" Leonardo spoke up, gaining all the attention. "But Bianca here was offering to sneak anything he wanted in for him." He pointed at the nurse who looked like a deer caught in the headlights.
This was quite entertaining.
"Bianca, leave." Dr. Johnson's smile left her face.
"Doctor I-"
Dr. Johnson cocked her head at her and that woman shut up and finally left, for good.
"What did Susan do?" She asked, turning to Mateo.
"I didn't like her."
She nodded. "I will ask them to get you someone sensible."
"So you have senseless nurses working here?" He quirked an eyebrow, a smirk forming on his face.
"Mmm.. More like nurses who lose their sense in front of hot Italian patients." She shrugged, putting her stethoscope back in her coat pocket.
Mateo felt his smirk widen while Adam gaped at the obvious yet subtle flirtation in front of him. He felt the sparks and he was sure so did the rest in the room. "So you admit that I am hot?"
"I was never one to disagree with facts." She gave him a smirk of her own.
"Is flirting allowed while on duty, doc?" Adam asked, killing the mood.
"I didn't know stating facts was called flirting." She turned to him and winked.
Mateo let out a laugh while Leonardo shook his head with a wide grin on his face.
Things were going to get interesting in these two months Mateo was in the hospital.
"Anyway, you are doing good. I will see you tomorrow." She breathed out.
With that she and the intern boy walked out.
