Without A Heart

CH 03

It's gonna be already a week since the last time she saw her, and, she almost didn't recognize her without all the makeup, but, those blue eyes are hard to forget...

"Another magic trick that didn't go well?" The doctor Alex Danvers says while she approaches to her patient who's waiting for her. "Ahm... not really. I kind of messed it up on my lab..." Alex hums with the reply of the blonde. A CEO in a lab... it seems that this girl is as clumsy as possible in no matter what she does...

"Lab? You're a CEO, what the hell are you doing in a Lab?"

"I'm very smart, and, I'm helping the R&D team to develop new toys..." Alison sees how Alex frowns, not believing it. "Hey! I'm really smart! I might be blonde! But, I'm not that kind of blonde!" Alison points out with a serious voice.

Alex makes no comment about it, she just nods. The dear doctor didn't want to upset her again, but, it seems that no matter what, she always finds a way to start with the wrong foot with this girl...

"So, you were in a Lab. And...?"

"And, I kinda tried to change the blade of a cutter... and, well... I kinda failed in doing it..." Alex bursts out laughing, and, Alison just rolls her eyes...

"It's not funny" Alison pouts

"Well, imagine it's me who's doing it..." The doctor says and, when Alison puts Alex in the same situation than hers, the CEO bursts out laughing...

"See, it's funny..." Alex smirks, and, keeps treating Alison's cut. The blonde CEO doesn't seem to be fan of blood. Alex notices it, and, to distract Alison's mind, she asks her about what she was doing in the lab before the accident with the cutter. The trick worked just fine, because Alison completely forgot about what was happening in her hand when she starts talking about the new inventions she's creating in the lab.

Alison has a great imagination. Maybe that was caused by all the fairy tales, and, fiction books she read when she was younger. Whatever is the reason, it seems that she's creating toys, thinking as a kid. Thinking about what a kid would like to play with. And, Alex smiles at the excitement of the blonde. It's always nice to see people who love what they do at work...

"The cut is not too deep. You will need some stitches. But, you're gonna be okay..." Alison nods when she hears Alex's diagnostic. The blonde really wasn't expecting to end in the hospital while testing the new game of toys she was trying to create, but, she's here... injured, and, being treated by no one else than the same doctor with whom, she didn't have a good start...

Alex might be harsh with her words, speaking before thinking. But, she's very kind on her touch when she treats a patient. And, Alison is surprised by how well Alex closes her wound. The blonde doesn't feel pain at all. In questions of minutes, Alex closed the cut, and looking at the impeccable stitch, it's very possible that Alison will not get a scar after that...

"Okay, it's done. I'll prescribe you something if you feel pain. If you get a little of fever, or, anything else. Do not hesitate to come and, see me..." Alison nods when she hears the indications of the doctor, and, she really believes that she will not need the pain pills, or, come back again. But, she was wrong...

"What was this time?" Alex asks when she sees the girl who has become her most recurrent patient. The doctor is curious to know what is the reason for this visit. Last time, it was a light burn caused by a coffee machine. Really, who burns making coffee? A week before that, the blonde literally blew up her lab when the batteries of her new robotic toys got an electrical overload. No one got hurt besides Alison because she was working alone...

This girl seems to be a magnet for accidents. It's surprising that she has made it so far without having a real scar. And, looking at the injury of today, that record of zero scars will continue, but...
