Chapter 246
"A relationship problem? I'm not very good at this." Josie answered honestly.
"I thought you'd be a popular girl." Keith looked at her and said, "You're smart and kind, and you have a precious sense of humor."
His eyes were as gentle as water, and the blue eyes reflected the shattered and crystal-clear glimmer of glass under the light of the bar.
And it's hard for Keith to imagine that Josie is not good at this. After all, she not only has the above advantages, but also is extremely beautiful, and her appearance alone is enough to charm any man with normal sexual orientation.
Thinking of this, the little secret between the two made him feel a little hidden joy, especially since Cameron and others knew nothing about it—he obviously selectively forgot House and others who knew the truth.
Cameron, interested, puts down his glass, "Same. So tell your story, honey."
family issues?
Childhood trauma?
Or something else caused it?
The two doctors couldn't help but look softer at Josie.
"Please, don't look at me like that." Josie chuckled, shook her head before saying, "I haven't been in a relationship yet—oh! I told you not to look at me like that—well, I haven't really talked about it yet." I've been in a relationship. I'm usually very busy, I have my own career, which is very important to me, and I don't think it's necessary to spend a lot of time and thought on being in a relationship."
The two doctors once again showed that unspeakable love and compassion, which made Josie, who was immersed in the role state, a little bit delicate.
But she continued: "Love is not a necessity, and neither is a man. I am happy that I am living such an unfettered life, and I don't want to give it up because of anyone or anything."
"But, even if you don't need to be in love, what about love?" Cameron's tone was a little cautious, "Humans always need intimacy, not necessarily related to sex, but a sense of security, such as touching, watching, accompany."
Josie thought for a while, supported her chin with one hand and said, "No, I don't need it, I can bring enough sense of security for myself."
When she said this, she raised her chin slightly, her eyelashes drooped slowly, and her small smoky blue eyes flashed a sharp and bright color, as if they were perfectly cut gemstones, shining brightly but cold and tough .
But at this time, the light above their heads cast a light halo on the top of her furry head. That dark golden curly hair was as soft as a fluffy cloud, which made her look light and charming, making the eyes in her eyes The light weakens the aggressiveness, leaving only the delicate and beautiful parts.
Keith, who was almost eight or nine years older than her, laughed it off as a young girl's rebellion: "Little girl, when you really learn to love and be loved, you won't say such things again."
The "little girl" in his mouth smiled lightly.
She leaned one elbow on the bar and crossed her right leg over her left. The aura of her whole person suddenly changed significantly, and she felt a little more dangerous and charming for no reason.
This is really strange.
Obviously she didn't dress up exaggeratedly and sexy, or wear heavy makeup, but when those clear eyes looked over, there was really that wonderful atmosphere that made people blush and heartbeat.
The temperament of the girl next door is gone, this is the big Hollywood star.
Keith thought so.
And Josie deliberately lowered her voice a little, and asked slowly: "It sounds like you have a lot of experience, don't you, doctor?"
She seemed to always like to call Keith "doctor", but now she pronounced the word more ambiguously, and that slightly hoarse voice seemed to scratch her ears lightly.
Keith felt his ear tip was red and hot, and knew very well that it was the effect of a sudden large amount of phenylethylamine, but he looked away as if running away, his brain was hesitating, he didn't know how to answer this question problem.
But the girl in front of him didn't seem to notice his strangeness, and continued to ask: "Doctor, you look so blushing."
Keith touched his face and forehead subconsciously, not daring to look at her, and only said vaguely: "Maybe the smell of alcohol is on the face, it's nothing."
Cameron on the side seemed to have seen some clues. He raised his lips and watched the show silently while drinking, and glanced at the two of them from time to time.
Josie fiddled with Shawl's long dark blonde hair, and gave Cameron a look.
Cameron then changed the subject contentedly: "Speaking of which, I heard that the patient in bed No. [-] brings you breakfast every day?"
Keith, who didn't care about this at first, couldn't help but prick up his ears to listen, and at the same time, he didn't forget to observe the expression on Josie's face from the corner of his eye.
Josie smiled lightly, propped one cheek with the palm of her hand, her eyes drooped slightly, "There is such a thing, but it was wiped out by our lovely nurses."
Keith breathed a sigh of relief.
Who knew that Cameron asked again: "Has he tried to ask you out?"
This time, Josie smiled and said nothing, but tapped the bar table with her fingers, signaling the bartender to refill the drinks for the two of them.
The amber liquid was poured into the glass smoothly, but the owner of one of the glasses lost the leisurely feeling of drinking a little wine, and instead picked up the glass and forgot to enjoy it.
Cameron, on the other hand, drank happily, and did not forget to play his magic assist: "Oh, it's a pity, bed No. [-] is super sexy."
"My current state is not suitable for dating." Josie shook her head, "I'm afraid I'll 'scare' a lot of people away."
"That can only show that the other party is not your true love." Cameron said, "And it is very stupid and superficial."
Keith didn't dare to look at Josie, and just said, "Yes."
Cameron interjected: "Look at our Dr. Keith, he has a pair of eyes that are good at discovering truth, goodness and beauty, and a heart of gold."
Keith, who was about to drink, almost choked.
Obviously he doesn't think he is as good as Cameron said, and he also knows that his colleague has noticed something strange and is actively creating opportunities for him and Sissy...
But the problem is, it's hard for him to say what started his feelings for the girl in front of him.
Is it purely for sex?
Or was she attracted by the kindness she showed before then?
"You're right." Josie looked at Keith, the color of his pupils was a kind of grayish blue, not as strong as her own.
Keith felt like he was going to be set ablaze again.
Because he noticed that Josie's eyes fell between his brows and eyes, and the hollow in the middle of the bridge of his nose.
And her soft voice, admiring eyes, and the loose and wanton smile from the corners of her eyes and brows all made all this a bit ambiguous.
This is, a big star with irresistible charm?
Or is this the real Josie Horton, not Elizabeth Masterson?
Keith felt like he couldn't think normally.
Cameron on the side resolutely found an excuse to slip away, and rejected any offer to send her home.
Just kidding, the two of them are on fire, and she still stays here as a light bulb?Say goodbye to you now.
How this night came to be like this, no one may be able to fully explain.
Keith only remembered that he asked an inappropriate question on the way back to the apartment with Josie.
"May I ask you a question?" he said. "Of course, if you feel offended, you don't have to answer."
"Ask." Josie counted the stone bricks on the curb as she walked.
Keith silently organized his words before he asked, "Why... did you make yourself like this? I mean, it's not just about makeup and disguise, but about the 'Elizabeth Masterson' This identity."
Josie smiled slightly and said, "Please, I'm an actor—the kind who won an Oscar."
Keith quietly observed her profile, and couldn't help but slow down, "So, is all this a show?"
Josie stopped and asked, "What do you think?"
The smile in her eyes seemed to have faded, and it looked a slightly melancholy blue.
"Sorry——" Keith laughed at himself, but his eyes were bright, "I really asked a stupid question."
The streetlight on the side reflected the expression on his face very clearly, and Josie didn't doubt Keith's answer, because he was the kind of person who could turn a patient into a butterfly into a lollipop and give a cancer girl a kiss.
Although he is not a good person in the strict sense in terms of emotional life.
Josie looked on coldly, the doctor's moral bottom line was not high in a certain sense, not only because of the incident at the sadistic party, but because he was obviously not hard-hearted enough, and he was easily emotional.
But what does that matter?
After all, his hair is very beautiful, and his face is also very beautiful. Such a beauty who conforms to her aesthetics must have some innocuous privileges with her.
However, at this moment, Josie was still playing tricks, deliberately saying: "No, when you asked this question, you already believed in your heart that all this was just a show."
As she spoke, she wanted to cry and gave Keith a look of strength, then turned her head and walked away.
"Wait, Sissy!" Keith quickly chased after her, "It's not like that, I always knew you had no malice towards anyone, this was just a white lie..."
"That's also a lie." Josie kept walking.
"No, that's different...be careful with the glass!" Keith hurriedly opened the glass door under the apartment for Josie, and kept chattering with her, "You didn't hurt anyone, and your starting point is that you don't want to Other people bring extra trouble—don't they?"
"No." Josie stepped into the elevator first, crossing her arms.
In fact, she couldn't help laughing a little, so the answer was kept short.
It's really because, this doctor is kind of...too cute.
How could he be so nervous and serious?
Didn't he realize that she was joking with him?
Keith's handsome and delicate face blushed a little because of anxiety and uneasiness, and his beautiful temples were also a little wet with sweat.
He followed Josie into the elevator, habitually pressed the floor of the two of them, hesitated for a few seconds before saying, "Um, I'm sorry."
Josie suppressed the corners of her mouth that were about to rise, and saw Keith's pitiful appearance from the reflection in the elevator. Oh, the little doctor really looks like a big dog with a drooping head.
And his head must have been soft to the touch.
Josie cleared her throat and asked blankly, "Aside from apologizing, can you say anything else?"
The large golden retriever heard the sound and looked over—just a cautious look—and raised his eyes in a concealed manner, staring at the beating floor signal.
"I... I don't know how to tell you." Keith took a deep breath, "I really don't mean anything else by asking that question. I'm just a little curious, and your curiosity... well, from just now , I've always wanted to kiss you."
As soon as the words were finished, the doctor lowered his eyes quietly, observing the expression of the girl beside him with the corner of his eyes.
Oh man, what the hell did I just say?
Will she think I'm frivolous?
Did I offend her again?
