Jack Dawkins One Shots

Kitten

hii. I have an idea for a story. what if Jack started teaching and y/n is a student and y/n falls in love and then they have a secret love and it's like a teacher's pet kind of story? I love your stories❤️❤️

I came out of a patient's room and began to head to the prep room to do some organizing when I noticed something. I was often perkier to the sighs around me, perhaps the years of criminality and street life teach you to be far more aware of your surroundings. As I exited the room and walked down the hallway, I noticed someone poke their head around the corner and begin to follow me. I didn't get a good look at them and assumed they were going in the same direction for a while. Still, they seemed to walk like they were following without much purpose other than to follow, so I did a couple of turns on the hospital corridors even doubling back on myself and yes this lady was still following me. If she needed something she surely would have called out by now so after a good ten minutes of this I turned around and caused her to freeze up only a few inches behind me. 

"What do you want?" I asked as I rested my hands on my hips finally getting a decent look at her,

She was young certainly, her Y/H/C hair up in a tight milkmaid braid with a red ribbon plaited into the braid and then a bow at the back of her head, she had a sweet face and a pair of spectacles on her nose, a red cotton dress with some cream lace around her hems and her elbow length sleeves, a long structured skirt with a bustle at her back almost as big as her that seemed to move with her almost like a tail, a leather-bound book in her hand clutched to her chest. 

She jumped as she saw me suddenly turn and she didn't say a word rather awkward she got caught. 

"Well?"

"Doctor Dawkins?"

"Yes,"

"Fantastic, I want you to teach me."

"What are you talking about?"

"I want you to teach me, to train me, to be a doctor." 

"You are out of your mind," I told her continuing on my way but she followed, 

"I assure you I am mentally fit, although I can have a letter confirming as such by next week if required." She explained as she followed me, 

"it's not, nothing is required. I'm not a bloody teacher." I told her as I headed into the prep room, 

"But Doctor Dawkins, I need to learn no hospital job will even look at me without the proper training, and at least a month on the ward work." 

I sighed as I leaned on the table, "Fine, go to the nurse's office in the entryway and talk to Hetty, she'll get you a uniform and get you some work." I told her,

"with all due respect doctor Dawkins that's nurse work, I need Doctor training."

"And why would you need that?"

"Becuase I want to be a doctor," she smiled,

"Women cannot be doctors," I told her as I got on with my work even if she was still chasing me around,

"I have read all medical law textbooks no such law exists."

"Well, it's an unwritten law then."

"And thus not legally binding." 

"Look, these are not my rules, there are society's rules."

"Society is fickle," she shrugged, 

"But there are rules.

"Doctor Dawkins," She said, "Until last year coal mines did not need inspectors, Ten years ago children as young as five were allowed to be chimney sweeps, sixteen years ago apprentices could be of any age, thirty one years ago children under nine where permitted to work." She explained, "With all due respect Doctor Dawkins, the world is ever changing and I'm sure at some point we will too look back at the concept of a woman not being allowed to train as a doctor just as preposterous as a nine-year-old chimney sweet apprentice."
