The Broken Swan(A Twilight fanfic & Carlisle love story)

Chapter 6

It had been about a month since Kaitlyn had moved to Forks.

Kaitlyn was currently sitting at the hospital reception desk, working. It was still morning and still pretty slow.

"Morning Kaitlyn." Jocelyn greeted.

"Good morning, Jocelyn." Kaitlyn greeted back.

"Getting settled into Forks yet?" Jocelyn asked.

"Yeah." Kaitlyn replied. "I used to visit my uncle all the time when I was younger, so I've been here before plenty of times. And i previously lived in Seattle, so I'm used to the rain."

"Ahh ok." Jocelyn said. "Where did the cupcakes come from?"

"Oh. I made them." Kaitlyn answered. "I love to bake. Please, try one. There's cheesecake filling in the middle."

Jocelyn picked one up and took a bite.

"Oh my god. These are amazing." She said with a mouthful. "You're a great baker."

Kaitlyn chuckled. "Thank you." She said.

A little bit later, Kaitlyn had just gotten back from lunch. She was having a woman sign some paperwork before she left. The woman's young son was reaching for a cupcake.

"Evan." The woman scolded.

"But, I want a cupcake!" The boy whined.

"He can have one." Kaitlyn said.

"Go ahead." The woman said.

The boy happily took a cupcake and started eating it as they left.

"Good afternoon, Kaitlyn." Carlisle greeted, approaching the reception desk.

"Good afternoon, Dr. Cullen." Kaitlyn said.

"How are you today?" Carlisle asked.

"I'm doing well." Kaitlyn replied. "And yourself?"

"I'm well, also." Carlisle said. "I wanted to ask you something."

"What?" Kaitlyn asked.

Carlisle was about to speak, but then Kaitlyn noticed her uncle.

"Charlie?" She said. "What are you doing here? Are you okay?"

"I'm fine, Kaitlyn." Charlie said. "I'm here for work."

"Oh." Kaitlyn said, relieved. "Okay."

"Looks like your cupcakes are a hit." Charlie said.

"You made these?" Carlisle asked.

"I did." Kaitlyn answered.

"You should try one, Dr. Cullen." Jocelyn said. "They're amazing."

"I don't doubt they are." Carlisle said. "But, I'm good."

"I got to get back to the station." Charlie said. "I'll see you at home, Kaitlyn."

"Bye Charlie." Kaitlyn said. She turned back to Carlisle.

"You wanted to ask me something." She said.

"Yes." Carlisle started. He slightly glanced at Jocelyn.

"I have a patient to check on." Jocelyn said, taking the hint and walking away.

Carlisle turned back to Kaitlyn. "I was wondering if you would like to go out with me." He continued.

"I'm sorry?" Kaitlyn asked.

"Would you like to go out on a date with me Saturday night?" Carlisle asked.

Kaitlyn was speechless.

"Uh." She said. "Can I have some time to think about it?"

"Yeah, of course." Carlisle said. "I'll see you around."

Kaitlyn nodded.

Later that night, Kaitlyn was thinking about what Carlisle asked. After her last relationship, she wasn't sure if she was ready for another relationship yet. But, she thought she should at least give him a chance. He certainly had been very welcoming and friendly to her. Kaitlyn wasn't exactly sure what to do.
