[ OPEN STARTER ]
Lizzie had been sure that the coast was clear. She’d been at the hospital on call all night and she missed her kids and husband desperately but she also really missed sleep, so in the two hours she had between surgeries, she opted to use the time to get a well deserved nap in, settling into one of the on-call room beds and waiting for sleep to take over when she heard the door open and a beam of light from the well lit hospital hallways made her open her eyes. “no.. no no no, there are like.. 4 other Dr. Shepherds in this hospital can you please be looking for them and not me right now?” she asked, not even sure who had interrupted her nap but resisting being called for anything anyway.
