The Doctor
Waking Up
I woke up to the annoying ring tone of my phone. I panicked when I saw Coach Q's name flashing on my Blackberry. It was probably because I was laying naked next to his Captain and as the team doctor that wasn't professional at all.
"Hi Coach" I said groggily.
"Did I wake you up Mel?" He asked.
John yawned with a loud voice, I immediately jumped on top of him and closed his mouth. His eyes widened with shock. But then there was a playful light in his eyes. I felt his smirk under my hand.
"No coach, I was just watching TV." I replied.
"Mel I want to have a meeting with the medical staff at 10 am before the training" He told me.
I promised to call everyone for the meeting, and put my phone away. John pull me closer to him.
"We have still time honey." He told me.
I didn't resist him and came for the fourth time.
"This was the last time Johnny." I told him.
Of course I know I've said it 3 times before, but this time I'm not going to let my hormones take control of me.
"Yeah I know Mel, it was a just hook up because of the loss. You help me clear my mind." He replied.
I felt myself become angry. How could he say that?
"Well I'm not your hooker Jonathan. I'm not a puck bunny or anything like that!"
He came closer and kissed my forehead. I ignored all of the butterflies dancing in my stomach.
"And I help you clear your mind."
He was right. He was a great distraction and therapy. However it doesn't mean I could just hook up with one of the players I work with. And falling for him was the last thing I wanted to happen.
I pushed him away and left without saying anything. I needed to focus on my job.

"Coach, Sharp can play next week and Hossa is getting better. You don't have to worry." I told Coach Q.
"Thanks Mel, I know I could trust you with injuries. And I would love to admit we had only two serious injuries so far, your methods really worked. I know the media hasn't reacted well about a female doctor in the team but they're slowly understanding how great you are." He told me.
I smiled widely. It was an amazing feeling to hear all of those words from my boss. I wasn't concerned about the media but a couple of good words instead of polls about who I'm sleeping with would have been great.
"That's my job." I said simply before ending the meeting.

Hey everyone. Really sorry that I'm taking so long. I had to go on an unexpected business trip, but I'm back now, and I'll have the editing done, and we'll update the story really soon. Thanks so much for your patience.
