Carlisle | imaginetwilight

You really, really hated hospitals.

It wasn't a hatred you always harbored, it had only started recently. Like, when you realized the biggest crush of your life was a doctor and you were horribly accident prone.

Carlisle and you became quick friends, but it was impossible for you to not have feelings for him. The man was so sweet, educated, and you felt safe with him. It also didn't hurt that he was drop dead gorgeous.

Up until now you had managed to stay out of hospitals to save yourself from embarrassment, but of course you just had to trip over your cat and fall on your wrist. You didn't tell Carlisle and you really hoped he wasn't working today.

"Y/N? Are you okay?" The panicked voice of your best friend and crush hit you and you were suddenly cursing your cat for lounging around everywhere.

You turned to Carlisle with an awkward smile. "Heyyyyyyyyyy buddy. I'm just here... in pain." You admitted and held up your swollen hand for him to see.

He shook his head and gently took it in his cool hands, which made you hiss. The movement hurt, but the temperature felt really good.

He spoke up after a few moments of inspection. "I'm sorry, but this will be uncomfortable for a few weeks. It's just a sprain thankfully, but you will need a brace." He frowned and met your eyes. "Why didn't you tell me about this? I could've come over and helped you. It must've been a pain to drive with your dominant hand like this."

You bit your lip and looked down, embarrassed and not wanting to tell him the real reason. You knew he was upset because you two were friends, but you honestly didn't know if Carlisle felt anything more. His son, Jasper, seemed to think he did. But what did Jasper know? Unless you heard Carlisle say that he felt the same way, you would not make a move.

"I just didn't want you to think I'm a helpless klutz." You shrugged. It was the partial truth, which was better than a lie.

He didn't look convinced, but thankfully he didn't' push. "Very well. Let's get you wrapped up then, shall we?" A smile from him made your heart race.

"Sounds good Doctor Cullen." You teased with a new sense of lightness. He didn't seem to think any less of you now that he knew you had two left feet.

"Good, we'll have to work on your balance as well. We can't have you falling anymore... unless it's for me of course." He gave you a wink that made your face heat up.

Maybe Jasper knew what he was saying after all.
