Jacob swept out and Gilly and I followed.

“Good job, Dr. Scott,” he said as we headed back to the lifts.

“I see what you mean about it feeling good,” I said without thinking.

He shot me a smile and then pressed the lift.

“What felt good?” Gilly said.

Shit, why couldn’t I just have kept my mouth shut? “Just being able to reassure patients that it’s nothing serious. You remember Wanda talked about it on our second day?”

“Did she? I don’t remember,” Gilly said.

“Dr. Peters, you need to take a breath before you launch into something,” Jacob said. “Rely on your training and go through things logically. No need to skip ahead or you’ll miss something.”

“Yeah, first day nerves, I guess,” she replied.

“You’ll do better next time,” Jacob said.

The lift doors opened and the three of us stepped into the empty lift. No need to worry about falling into Jacob Cove’s hard, hot body.

Damn.
