Chapter 19
Sunday September 10th
Mallory's POV

"My patient got his hand stuck in a meat grinder" Beau threw his lunch tray down on the table with an exhausted sigh, slumping down in the chair next to Isabella.

"Ew" Isabella grimaced.

"That's so cool" Camilla's eyes widened in awe. The two of them reacted at the same time, very different from one another.

"Dr. Tan is replacing his thumb with one of his toes. Isn't that crazy?" Beau continued on.

"That's even worse" Isabella pretended to gag.

"Imagine having a toe on your hand" Mason chimed in, holding up his hand in demonstration. "That's got to be weird"

"How come something cool happens when you're on ortho? All I got was some loser kids who fell off their skateboards and broke their arms" Camilla rolled her eyes.

"Maybe it's because I don't wish for bad things to happen to people and you do" Beau countered back.

"When have I ever done that?" Camilla asked like we were accusing her of something she's never done before.

"You were excited when a premature quintuplet had her organs outside of her body" Isabella answered.

"Just yesterday you asked me if someone could get mauled by a lion or something because you were bored" Mason listed.

"You practically squealed when that one patient of ours was confirmed to have a rare brain tumor" Beau stared at her appalled.

"I never said any of that" Camilla denied.

"Oh and now she's a liar" Mason nodded his head.

"You're just making things up"

"Ah yes because saying someone should get mauled by a lion is a totally normal thing for me to lie about" Mason argued.

"Well you are Mason" Camilla huffed, still in denial.

"And you-"

All of our attention was brought off their little squander, because Isabella was suddenly banging her fork into the plastic wrap of her meal in an attempt to poke holes in it. It was only comical because she had a mad look on her face, which is rare for someone as cheerful as she is, and the way that she was fighting with it was pretty aggressive.

"What the hell is her problem-" Mason stared at her.

"I swear I got paired with the weirdest group of people here" Camilla rolled her eyes and rested her chin on her palm.

"Give me the damn thing" Mason snatched it out of her hands, careful to avoid the fork that she was jamming through the air, and slammed his fork down into the plastic with ease. "There, mad woman"

"Oh thanks" Isabella flashed a smile at him and took her food back, seemingly returning to normal. She started to eat her food like she didn't just become a whole different person for 30 seconds, but she only commented on it once we were all just staring at her in confusion. "I needed to let some aggression out. Dr. Styles is driving me crazy today"

"Ugh barf" Camilla scoffed. "I don't understand how that guy still has a job here"

"Again, you literally asked for someone to be attacked by a wild animal" Mason reminded.

"Enough with the lion!" Camilla shushed him. "Don't you understand how to keep a secret?"

"Oh I sure do" Mason shrugged cockily throwing a glance my way, that luckily I think I was the only one who caught it. I just shook my head at him subtly in response.
