Love me like you (Code Black fan fiction)

Chapter Two

Since Melissa told Leanne about her engagement to Greg, Leanne tried to push her feelings as side and just get on with her life so, she went back to the only thing she knew would how to do well and that was being a doctor but, on this particular day off Leanne went about her usual routine in the morning eating break fast, doing house work and her daily chores when the post arrived. Leanne walked down her drive and over to her mail box.
Leanne opened her mail box and picked them up before closing the box and walked back up the drive to her front door glancing through the mail and that is when she saw it.
She stared at the letter in her hands for a Few seconds knowing full well what the contents were inside. Leanne snapped out of her trance and went inside where she opened the letter and there it was framed with extremely neat and fancy writing.

St All Saints Church
Leanne felt a pang of sadness seeing her name and "Guest" next to it instead of a husband. Leanne sighed placing the invite on the table in the hall before she left for work that day.
Leanne arrived at work but her head really wasn't in it today as her mind would often drift off into thoughts of people attending her wedding and how beautiful the ceremony would be.
Soon enough Leanne arrived home dumping her bangs on the floor by the front door and walking into the living room where she sat down with a heavy sigh.
An hour later Leanne felt her stomach rumble in hunger, Leanne got up and made herself a bowl of pasta not really caring how many calories were in the pasta and sauce after all she was alone the invite told her that so, why should she care because she had no one to please other than herself.
Once the pasta was cooked and ready to serve she carried it to the living room where she snuggled down to watch tv.kicking a magazine on to the floor so she could put her feet up, Leanne flicked through channel after channel but it was if they were trying to pint out her loneliness because everything was romantic with happy endings wether it be a movie or a tv show. Turning off the tv Leanne bent down to finally pick up this magazine she had kicked to the floor.
Leanne went to pick it up but she stopped dead in her tracks when she saw what page it had landed on.
THE NEW WAY TO DATE - HIRE YOUR DATE was written in large black letters across the page which seemed to jump out at Leanne who just shut the page in anger " I am Dr Leanne Rorish, renowned attending at Angel memorial who does not hire her dates" she said to herself folding her arms a cross her chest.
Picking. Up the phone Leanne began to ring her male friends who normally attend parties or work events with her as her plus one. After slamming the phone down for the 6th time after being rejected Leanne was at a loss on what to do she couldn't show up with no man on her arm surely, everyone will be expecting her to parade around with a yummy man on her arm I mean after all she is Dr Rorish  who is never usually short on male company.
Leanne  couldn't bare the thought of showing up at the wedding empty handed with no male candy on her arm " it couldn't hurt, who has to know" Leanne  said to herself, so she picked up the magazine and began looking through the applicants.
Leanne had circled a few men who fitted her criteria that's when it hit her she could ask Jesse to go with her after all he is her best friend and partner in crime and what could be better than spending it with your best friend at your family wedding.
~The next day~
Leanne changed into her scrubs and headed to the staff room where she poured herself a large pot of coffee and took a large sip of the coffee and left the staff room.
" good morning daddy" Jesse said cheerfully.
" morning mama" Leanne walked over to the nurses station to see what patients they had.
" RTC coming in ETA 5 minutes" Dr Gutherie called out.
Leanne, Jesse, Christa and Angus where the first at the entrance already gowned, gloved and ready to go.
Neal and Malaya rushed over as soon as the ambulances filled into the spot.
"Christa, Jesse with me, Angus and Malaya with Dr Hudson" Leanne barked and they all went to their assigned patients.
" what have we got?" Leanne asked as they wheeled the patient through the double doors and into centre stage.
"Jane doe, found at scene her GCS 7, BP 140/ 60,100ml of saline administered at scene along with 10 ml of morphine. She has multiple lacerations, contusions, a nice clean fracture to the tibia and Fibular" Leanne nodded.
" hello can you hear me I'm Dr Rorish" she didn't get a reply
"Can we get ortho down here now please I'm not getting pulse in this leg" Leanne said looking over the girls fracture in the tib/fib immobiliser.
" she's flatlining, crash cart now" Christa rushed over to the crash cart and brought it over.
" okay charging at 180, stand clear" they shocked her but there was no response.
" okay charge at 360" they charged again and this time there was an out put.
" we don't give up that easily young lady" Jesse said to the unconscious Jane doe" Leanne wiped her brow with the back of her hand.
Orthopaedic surgeon came down to asses the girls fracture and then took her up stairs for emergency surgery on her fracture.
" nice save daddy" jesse said placing his hand on Leanne's shoulder.
" thanks mama right back at you" Leanne smirked.
" jesse, I actually have something I need to ask you" Leanne subconsciously licked her lips and Jesse nodded for her to continue
" my sister Melissa is getting married and well I received the invite this morning and well I was wondering if you would come with me as my plus one ?" Jesse thought about it " what date?" Leanne frowned " oh I've forgotten....July the Fifth" Jesse sighed " I can't Leanne I'm out of town for the weekend sorry I would if I could" Leanne patted him on the shoulder " I know you would" Leanne looked defeated.
" I know someone who wouldn't mind" Leanne frowned " oh it's not another one of those weird guys you set me up with is it?" Jesse laughed " would mama do that? No it's easy. Sometimes you can't see what is right in front of you"
" don't go mad on me now mama" Leanne shook him slightly.
" no seriously" Leanne looked round hospital glancing at her colleagues until her eyes landed on Mario and Angus.
" Mario and Angus?" Leanne frowned and Jesse laughed " no try again" Leanne scanned the room again until her eyes met the dark friendly eyes of Neal Hudson.
" mamas work is now done" Jesse winked at Leanne before he walked off.
