Messy exes

Miranda was walking down the hallway to her office. " Hey Chief." Amelia said as she called her over to the front desk.

"Hey Shepard." Miranda said walking over to her.

" I wanted you two to meet, he's a doctor in oncology filling in for Dr. William. " Amelia said as he Turned around to face her.

Miranda's eyes got wide as she stared at Eli. " He is going to be working with me on a case as I remove a cancerous tumor from his patient head. She has been battling cancer for years and I was glad I'm giving her the opportunity to live longer." Amelia spoke and it traveled in one ear and out the next. Miranda was just silent.

" We meet again. Dr. Bailey." Eli said with a smirk.

" It's Chief. Dr. Miranda Bailey, Chief of surgery. Eli " Miranda spoke.

"Oh, you guys know each other. " Amelia said looking back and forth between them.

"Oh, we know each other. Very well actually." Eli said enough to know what he was implying.

Amelia blushed and Miranda rolled her eyes.

" It was nice seeing you again. If you will excuse me. I'm going to my office. I have paperwork to do." Miranda said walking away.

She went into her office and worked on the hospital's budget and read through proposals. She heard a knock at the door. " Come in." Miranda said looking down at her computer.

Eli walked inside and shut the door. He walked over and stood in front of her desk. Miranda looked up at him. He had a full-grown beard that was neatly shaven. And he looked buffer than he was from Ten years ago. He was attractive but he wasn't Ben.

" Can I help you." Miranda asked.

" I just came to see your office. Wow you are Chief. Congratulations you deserve it. How long have you been Chief." Eli asked.

"Thank you and five years." Miranda said shutting her computer and putting her hands on top.

" Wow. You were brilliant and passionate all those years ago, so I'm not surprised, and you are married." Eli said peering down at her ring finger, seeing the 10 thousand dollar princess cut diamond ring followed by her silver band.

Miranda looked down at her ring and smiled. She loved her ring and she smiled thinking about her husband. She was so shocked and flattered that he had spent that much on a ring.

" Yeah I'm married. Almost twelve years. "Miranda said as she smiled. She turned the picture around on her desk and showed him their wedding picture.

"The jack- ass arrogant Anesthesiologist?" Eli questioned.

" Watch your self Llyod." Miranda snapped and raised her eyebrow.

" Sorry, I'm glad you're happy." He said but she could tell it was laced with sarcasm.

"Yeah very. But he's not an anesthesiologist anymore. He became a surgeon and now he is a firefighter/ field surgeon." Miranda said looking at him.

"Kids?" Eli questioned

"Well you already know about Tuck but 3 I mean 2." Miranda said as she thought about her miscarriage. " I have two boys. Tuck and Joey and a daughter in heaven." Miranda said as she breath in and out slowly. " But enough about me. You are a doctor." Miranda Stated.

"Oh yeah after we broke up. Or ended things... I wanted to get out and do something different." Eli said and Miranda couldn't help but laugh. Geesh every guy she left needed to go do something with their selves, dam she was special.
