Before seattle: Georgia Russell.

chapter 3

Sofia; you called mommy "Dr perky pants" that's funny.

Russell; I did. She hated it when she found out.

Sofia; then what happened?

Russell; well...

Georgia had been working at Hopkins for 6 months and every single day she was partnered up with Arizona. It was as if the resident didn't trust them on their own because they were female, he was always talking down to them but having a laugh with all the men. One day Georgia decided to go for a drink at the bar around the corner.

Russell; hey, could I get a gin and lemonade and a shot of tequila, please.

Bartender; you got ID?

Russell rolling her eyes; sure... Here.

Bartender; sorry, I've got to ask. You just look so young.

Russell; no problem. Thanks.

Bartender; you new around here?

Russell; kinda, I've lived here 6 months, I work as an intern down at the hospital.

Bartender; 6 months and you've not once come in here with the other interns. They all come down here for a drink after a long shift.

Russell; nope. I'm not really a fan of socialising in big groups.

Bartender; ah, I get it. For the next time you come by, I'm Tony.

Russell; Georgia, it's very nice to meet you.

Georgia knocked back her tequila and stayed sitting at the bar just minding her own business. Enjoying the quiet, until...

Robbins; wow, never thought I'd see you here.

Georgia rolled her eyes before turning to face Arizona.

Russell; Dr Robbins. I just fancied a drink before I walked home.

Robbins; you know you can call me Arizona.

Georgia realised she didn't actually remember her first name, she had only ever known her as Dr Robbins.

Russell raising her eyebrow; Arizona... Like the state?

Robbins; no... Well yes, I suppose but I'm not named after the state. I was named after the USS Arizona.

Russell confused; oh, okay.

Robbins; it was a battleship that was bombed at pearl harbour.

Russell; okay.

Robbins; you have no clue, do you?

Russell; nope. Sorry.

Robbins; during world war 2? Japanese bombed pearl harbour. Does that help.

Russell shook her head. No... Possibly ever so slightly rings a bell, don't forget I'm British, we only vaguely cover it at school.

Robbins; never mind. So what things are you into?

Russell; (thinking- being on my own) umm... Not much really. Spend most of my time studying.

Robbins; seriously? How about you tell me something about you then I can tell you something about me.

Russell; (thinking- oh please no.) I don't know I only came for one drink and that's nearly gone.

Robbins; oh come on Georgie it'll be fun.

Russell; okay, you want to know something about me... I hate being called Georgie.
