Zayne: Love and Deepspace Fanfiction

Chapter 1: Zayne

"Doctor.."

I turned to see the nurse looking at me with a smile. I maintained my blank expression.

"What is it?" I asked as she started walking towards me with some charts on her hand. "Yvonne."

"Patient charts, Doctor Zayne." She gently laid the charts down my table and looked at me expectantly.

"Do you still need anything?" I took the charts and scanned it one by one. She still hasn't gone out of my office.

"You wanna grab lunch with me, Doctor Zayne?" Her soft voice reached my ears.

"I have a lot to do," I gave her a quick look. "But do go on with other nurses. Or Greyson." I suggested.

My phone then rang. I answered the call without looking at the caller ID.

"This is Zayne."

"Hey Zayne!" A cheerful voice greeted me. For sure, it's her and I smiled. "I just finished a mission, wanna grab lunch, my Doctor?" Elize's sweet voice resounded in my ear.

"Sure. Where are you?" I signed one chart and stood up.

I looked at Yvonne and gave her a dismissive look. I didn't notice her stop getting out of my office. She hurriedly went out while I was getting off of my doctor's coat.

"On my way to you-- Oh hi, Nurse Yvonne!" I heard her greet the nurse.

She smiled and sounded cheerful, ended the call and walked slowly towards me. I carefully observed her. Passing glances on her body. Her cheeks, neck...

My eyes stared on her neck and focused on that small red stain...

Shaking my head, I moved my gaze around her body.

It's not a stain.

I inwardly smiled. Then I continued looking at her.

"No injuries, Doctor." She grinned.

I slowly touched her neck, where the mark I left her last night sits. Last night was like the many nights that passed whenever we were together.

Never less special.

I continued checking her body. That one mark on her chest is a bit exposed... I furrowed my brows.

Maybe I got too carried away last night? But looking at her not caring if anyone sees this... Does she care if I am with her, or not?

"You never covered this." I stated while gently touching the red part with my fingers.

"Should I?" She smiled at me. Always smiling. "I mean, this is like low-key declaration that you are mine, right Zayne?" She pondered, a small pout on her lips. I tried to hide a smile and failed a bit. "Even if nobody knows."

"Your colleagues may have seen it. It might make them... Uncomfortable." I held her arms and checked for bruises.

So far so good.

"Why would they be uncomfortable?" She asked me, a small smirk plastered on her lips. She broke free from my hold, took my coat and hung it on my swivel chair.

"Cafeteria food here in Akso is good. Let's go?" She pulled my hand.

I nodded. Pulling her back, I gave her a light kiss on her lips. "Good job on avoiding injuries by the way." I whispered huskily on her ear.

She hummed. "Then..." she patted my shoulders softly. "I do deserve a reward." Then looked at me in the eyes. "Right?" Her voice turned a pitch higher, child-like. I chuckled.
