Part 2
Thirteen was surprised to find flowers on the door of her car as she was leaving the hospital to get back to her apartment. She looked at them and detected a small card attached to them.
Hey Thirteen,
Thank you for being there when I needed someone!
I hope you like the flowers!
Allison
A wide smile appeared on Thirteen’s face when she read the note. She removed the rope from the door and got into her car, placing the flowers carefully on the seat next to her.

The next day, Thirteen had her day off. She decided to go biking in the park near her apartment. She was listening to music while she was biking around the big lake. Then she saw a certain blonde sitting on the grass next to the water. Thirteen brought her bike to stop next to the blonde and seated herself on the grass.
“Hey there,” she tried to start a conversation.
“Oh Thirteen! You? Here?” Cameron asked in surprise looking directly into Thirteen’s eyes.
“Yeah. I... I wanted to thank you for the beautiful flowers,” the brunette started and blushed slightly. She shook her head to hide her blush but definitely couldn’t fool Cameron who was now grinning at her.
“So uhm,” Cameron tried to ignore the awkward but still cute situation, “do you want to grab something to eat. With me? I’m just asking, you don’t have to!”
“Cameron, slow down! I’d love to!” Thirteen answered, finally able to hide her blush as good as possible, even if she knew that the other doctor had seen her. She instead gave Cameron one of her widest smiles.

Cameron made it Thirteen’s choice to pick the food, so they went back to Thirteen’s apartment and ordered some Chinese food.
“You better now?” Thirteen hesitantly asked to break the silence. She didn’t want to upset Cameron again or to make her feel bad. She just wanted to make sure she was okay.
Cameron suddenly fell completely silent. “Yeah,” she answered, her voice low. Cameron looked down at the floor, avoiding eye contact.
Thirteen reacted within a few seconds and lay one of her hands softly on the blonde’s shoulder. “Look, I’m sorry. I didn’t mea-,” she was cut off by Cameron’s lips meeting hers in a soft kiss.
The brunette was confused and surprised that the other woman started to kiss her, because she always thought of her as the straightest of all people she knew. When they ended the kiss, they were looking into each others eyes in silence.
“But... wha...?” Thirteen stuttered. The blonde was the first one to break the eye contact and looked at the floor again.
“You know... I broke up with Chase because I was in love with someone else,” she said as tears started to fall down her cheeks. She then looked at the brunette. “Because... because I’m in love with you. I don’t know how this happened or why it happened. And I’m confused. But... but I just know!”
Cameron had definitely caught Thirteen off-guard. Now the blonde was worried that she had shocked the brunette and that she was never going to talk to her again.
“I’m sorry, I shouldn’t have...” she started to apologize to the younger doctor but was interrupted by Thirteen’s lips on her own. She was slightly surprised when the brunette slowly deepened the kiss, although she really loved it.
When their lips finally parted, Thirteen whispered a soft “I love you” before leaning in to kiss Cameron again.
