❝ oh, you got the nazi, i got apollo! ❞
Cormac Doyle had never fit in with the 'normal' expectations of society, always the oddball and the last person to be chosen as a result of this. But then Seattle called him away from Dublin. The very place where everyone knew him for being the demented Doyle boy. Not having a driver's licence seemed to be a disadvantage — well it usually did to Cormac. In Dublin, when he was training for his medical degree, catching the bus to med school everyday was a living nightmare.
Everyone staring and judging him for every little action he took on the bus. Whether it was adjusting his headphones or reaching for a book in his bag ( majority of the time people thought it was pills or a knife ).
But, once he moved to the U.S for his job, this all seemed to stop. People stopped glaring holes into the back of his head and no one called him demented, ''excuse me. Is this seat taken?'' A brunette woman filled Cormac's vision gesturing to the bag next to him.
''Sorry, I'm so used to putting my bag next to me. You can take it.'' Cormac dropped the bag next to his feet as the woman placed herself in the empty seat next to him. The woman glanced up and down at him, ''are you Irish? You sound Irish.'' Cormac had just placed his headphones back on only to push them back down, ''Yes I'm Irish, originally from Dublin.'' The woman shifted her gaze back down to Cormac's bag where his hospital ID was sticking out of his bag.
''Seattle Grace, you must be another newbie. I'm Amelia Lockett, I think we've been assigned to the same resident, Apollo James.'' Amelia stuck her hand out for Cormac to shake.
''Cormac Doyle, lovely to meet you. I think there's only three of us. Smith and Thompson dropped out.'' Cormac offered the woman a smile.
''Well, that's a bit better. More of chance of getting through that way.'' Amelia joked as the bus came to a sudden halt.
''This must be us, you ready?'' Amelia stood up to let the man out.
''As ready as anyone can ever be.'' Cormac laughed.
''So Cormac, you lived in Dublin. Why'd you move over here, I'm sure there's plenty of jobs over there for you.'' Cormac couldn't understand why he wanted to spill his guts to this woman but she almost drew the information out of him, ''well this job required me to move so I did and I really need to get away from that place as soon as possible.''
