I had just had an amazing day with Elliot and the next day I was excited to show off my new girlfriend. Only when I got there she wouldn't let me kiss her in front of anyone. I was okay with that … I guess. I understood that she didn't want everyone in the work place to know. Except when we had lunch with Carla and Turk, she got all pissed at me for telling them about us having sex. They were our friends, they don't judge us and if they do they tell it to our faces. That was when I figured out why she was mad. She was embarrassed. I didn't say anything, not in front of my friends.

After lunch though I pulled her aside to confront her about it. "Look" she said "I just don't want every one knowing we are doing it. Okay?" That cut deeper than I think she intended. "Not even our friends? Don't you see this going anywhere or am I just sex to you? You know what… I don't care. I don't want to be with someone who is embarrassed at having been with me." I walk away and she doesn't bother going after me. It only proved me right. I was walking away angrily and wasn't paying any attention as to where I was going and I ran right into Dr. Cox. "Wow there Rebecca, watch where you are going." He didn't say it in a angry way or rude way, I was just already mad and the girl name set me off more.

"Why are you so mean to me?" I snap. He looks taken aback "J.D. what has gotten into you?" I soften my voice a bit because he called me by my actual name and that has never happened [aside from my first day there] "I broke up with Elliot." He nods "Well that lasted a long time." I sigh at his sarcastic remark "She was embarrassed to be with me." That was when I saw his face change to something I had never seen before. "Embarrassed? By you…why?" It was sarcastic and he actually sounded like he cared. "Do you care?" I was skeptical because he was always the one that said he didn't actually care. "You deserve someone who isn't embarrassed to be with you. You deserve to be with someone who would be proud to call you theirs." He gives me a legit smile before patting me on the shoulder.

I watch him walk away before turning and going to one of my patient's rooms. I pass by the janitor on the way and he says "That doctor is totally into you. Idiot." I don't stop, but those words ring in my head the rest of the day. The more I think about it the more it makes sense. Was he the one he was referring to about being proud to call me theirs? I decided that at the end of my shift I would find out. The rest of the 6 hours left I kept running things through my mind that I should say. When I say him heading out the door I jogged after him. "Dr. Cox." I call. He stops and turns "Hey newbie." He says as he waits on me.

When I am in front of him no words seem to be right, so I just kiss him. As soon as my lips are on his I feel his hands pull me closer to his body. "About damn time" comes a voice from behind us. I break the kiss to see the janitor walking to his van. I turn to see Perry grinning "He's right." I open my mouth to protest, but Perry swings his arm over my shoulder and walks me to his car. "You usually get a ride from Carla and Turk right?" He asks as he unlocks his car I nod and he smiles "That is what I thought. Well tonight I'd like to be your ride." I can't help laughing causing him to nudge me "Hey, get your mind out of the gutter." I get in his car and he starts it and heads home. He was definitely my ride that night [in more ways than one].
