Losing a patient never got easier though I had been a nurse going on 2 years.
I worked on a medical surgical floor and I absolutely adored my job. I had worked incredibly hard to put myself through school and I was finally doing what I loved.
But of course there were good days and really horrible ones. And today, nothing had seemed to be going well.
I lost a patient, had 2 new admissions, and hadn't even started on charting for my shift.
"Hey Amy do you think you can cover me this weekend?" My favorite coworker Michelle exclaimed as soon as I left my patients room.
"Yeah sure it's not like I ever have any plans anyways" I sighed.
"Well that's because you never give anyone a chance duh" Michelle rolled her eyes towards me.
"Oh please just because I don't say yes to every guy I meet" I teased her.
"Well maybe you should try it, you never know!" She stuck her tongue out at me as she made her way to the nurses station.
As much as i hated to admit it, Michelle was right.
I had buried myself in school and then in work as soon as I graduated. Ever since my breakup with my long distance high school boyfriend, I didn't have time for relationships and nearly turned down every guy that even attempted to talk to me.
I pulled myself out of getting lost in my thoughts and made my way to the pantry. I needed some coffee as I felt my eyes become weary and I still had 2 hours left on my shift. I made a cup and made my way to the computer to get some documentation done.
The remainder of my shift flew by as I finished my assignment for the day. I couldn't wait to go home and unwind in a bubble bath with a tall glass of red wine.
I went to visit my last patient of the day with the oncoming nurse, Ashley, who was taking over for me.
"Max this is Ashley, she's going to be your nurse for tonight" I explained to him.
"Aw Amy you're leaving me already?" He pouted.
Max had been my patient for a few days now and had made an incredible recovery after a severe car accident. He was in the ICU for a week and was transferred to my floor after he was stabilized. He was a sweetheart and always was in good spirits despite his unfortunate bad luck and a broken leg.
"His pain level was 6 out of 10, I gave him- "
"Max buddy!" I looked up to voice that interrupted my report.
I was surprised to see a handsome familiar face, short curly brown hair and infamous face tattoos.

The one and only Post Malone was standing right in front of me.
"Oh shit I'm sorry I didnt mean to interrupt" he apologized.
"It's okay we were just finishing up" I stated slightly annoyed.
His bright blue eyes held my gaze as he made his way to Max's side.
I finished up with Ashley, said my goodbye to Max and turned to leave the room. I went to my locker, grabbed my jacket and keys and clocked out.
I took the elevator down and thought about the rockstar I had just encountered. I knew some of his songs and I had to admit he was pretty good. He was probably so used to fans coming up to him that I didnt even bother to acknowledge the fact that he was Post Malone.
Just as I made my way to my car I heard someone call after me.
"Hey you" I heard the same smooth voice as earlier.
I turned around to meet those blue eyes.
"Sorry didn't mean to scare you. I didn't get a chance to introduce myself. My name is Austin." he said.
"Look I can't tell you any information about your friend. It's against confidentiality" I rolled my eyes at him. "I know you're famous and everything but there's no exceptions."
"So you do know who I am." he smirked at me.
"Of course I do, you're kinda hard to miss with those face tattoos." I smirked back, slightly cursing myself for speaking to the famous stranger so boldly.
"I wasn't going to ask you about Max. I uh- I actually wanted to tell you that you're very beautiful." "But I also just realized you are a lot more feisty than you look." He chuckled.
I smiled at him. "Well I'll take both as a compliment, thank you." "My name is Amelia, but everyone calls me Amy."
"Amelia huh. I think I'll call you that." He stated.
I stared into his eyes suddenly feeling very nervous. He was even more handsome up close. I felt my heart speed up as he took one step closer.
"So are you going to give me your number or what Amelia?"
