Belle arrived at the hospital, a few days after her first day of work, and quickly changed into her scrubs, she walked out of the changing room holding a cup holder with four coffees, giving it to her fellow group interns while leaving one for her resident, "We're together a hundred hours a week, you want to live together too?" Belle said sarcastically when after Izzie's persistence for her to put up flyers if she wanted roommates.
"No. Ooh, you're bringing bribes now?" Cristina stated, not seeing the cup of coffee in in O'Malley and Stevens hands, "I need a place to live. My mom irons my scrubs. I have to get out of there." George told Belle who looked at him in thought while replying to Cristina "It's not a bribe, I brought coffee for everyone, just grab one." Cristina looked slightly shooked but grabbed one cup as George continued "I can put down last, first and deposit." followed by Izzie "I can cook. And I'm an obsessive cleaner."
Although the sound of living with people she was actually quite comfortable with pleased Belle, it was a risk, a risk she didn't want to take. Bailey came out of the office she was in and the second her interns got near her she ordered "George, you're running the code team, Meredith, take the trauma patients, Cristina, deliver the weekend labs to the patients, Izzie, you're on sutures."
She quickly walked away towards the stairs when Belle called out "Dr Bailey. Would you like a Mocha latte?" quickly following the resident that was her boss, "I promise it's not a bribe, I just know for a fact that working with a coffee fresh on the palate is better than with no coffee." Bailey slowly takes the latte and watches as Belle walks away, her brows furrowing, she expected Belle to bribe her like many interns have in the past, but it seemed that Belle didn't want to be picked over other unless it was because she deserved it.
The interns and resident watched as the redhead grabbed the files and walked towards the elevator, her smile falling when she noticed that Dr. Shepherd was also standing there "Seattle has ferry boats. I didn't know that. I've been living here six weeks, I didn't know there were ferry boats." He commented making Belle shake her head and reply "You do know that Seattle is surrounded by water on three sides." to which Derek chuckled "Hence the ferry boats." before stating "Now I have to like it here. I wasn't planning on liking it here. I'm from New York. Genetically engineered to dislike everywhere, except Manhattan. I have a thing for ferry boats."
They enter the elevator that had arrived and emptied meanwhile and Belle commented "I'm not going out with you nor am I dating you." a moment of silence followed but Derek broke it by asking "Did I ask you to go out with me? Do you want to go out with me?" a smirk evident on his face, "Look, if the roles weren't what they are I'd love to go out with you. But my baggage, emotional and physical is too much to handle, even for a doctor." Belle confessed as Derek turned around.
"I can handle any kind of baggage..." He trailed off, looking at Belle's lips, and as he stepped forward, Belle suddenly acted like a high school girl, she dropped the files she was holding and cupped Derek's jaw, pulling him to her as she connected their lips, Derek's hands flew to her hips as he pulled her flush against him, unfortunately, seeing as Belle seemed to have slightly more self-control than Derek she pulled herself back and grabbed the files she'd dropped as the elevator doors dinged as opened, walking out as if nothing had happened.
Belle dropped the files off at the trauma desk unit before rushing to the room that she was paged in, pulling her long dark ginger hair into a messy bun at the back of her head just as a nurse inquired "You the surgeon?" Belle nodded allowing the woman to finish "We've got a rape victim. You better get in there." Belle did as she was told and froze as she saw how beat up the victim was, allowing a nurse inside the room to fill her in "21-year-old female found down at the park, status: post-trauma, she came in with a GCS of 6, BP 80 over 60, head trauma, unequal breath sounds, right pupil is dilated, and she's ready for x-ray. You ready to roll?"
"Yes! Call it in to clear CT, let them know I'm coming, load up the portable monitor, call respiratory for a ventilator, I'll get x-rays while I'm down there." the red read ordered before leaving with the nurses. She quickly scrubbed in and followed the rape victim to the O.R., watching as Derek and Burke operated on the young woman. Her mind instantly reeling back to when she was that age and she was raped by her daughter's father, sure she didn't look that roughed up afterward but she did also put up a fight.
After doing all the tests and running her prints through the medical database to see if the patient had any medical conditions, Belle found herself in a surgery room with Dr. Shepherd and Dr. Burke along with many nurses and doctors, Shepherd operating the brain and Burke trying to find the object that caused a rupture.
"She's going to spend a hell of a lot of time in recovery and rehab." Derek said as he continued to repair the damage the victim had suffered, "If she survives." his colleague countered making the light-skinned brunette man chuckle slightly. Belle was feeling nauseous, the more time she spent with the victim, the more her repressed memories returned, flashing through her eyes over and over and over again but seeing as she was an intern, she couldn't just run out of the room, find a quiet place and try to calm down herself, she had to be strong for the woman, Alison as Belle came to find out after running the prints.
Of course, being completely oblivious to the situation like everyone else, Dr. Shepherd said "What is she, like, 5'2", a hundred pounds, she's still breathing after what this guy did to her? If they catch the guy, they should castrate him." only for his partner to reply "See how shit her hands are? She tried to fight back." which in turn made Derek chuckle "Tried to? Rape kit came back negative. She kicked his ass." This relieved Belle slightly that the woman wasn't actually raped but she was still very uncomfortable.
"So, we have a warrior among us, huh?" Burke laughs while everyone chuckles and comments lowly before the resident says "I think I may have found the cause of our rupture." Everyone leans in to look at what it is as Burke pulls out a piece of flesh out of the woman, but he frowns upon not understanding what it is making him ask "What is this? Does anyone know what this is?" But Belle knew, or rather she understood faster than the others making her gasp "Oh my god. She bit it off." which made the attending inquire utterly confused "Bit off what?"
Any other person would have stuttered the reply but Belle being Belle and trying not to run out of the O.R. replied confidently "His penis. She bit off his penis." every man in the room shudders, almost as if they felt it was theirs as Burke all but threw the equipment and the male genitalia into an awaiting tray.
