Victoria was excited when she had gotten the news that she was being hired Dr. Drakes new nurse. It was an amazing feat that she had gotten the job since she was fresh out of nursing school. That is not to say that she didnt do well in her classes, in fact, she was the top student in her graduating class and a top student in the schools history. She was the first student in their history to score perfectly on the final exam for her license. Victoria achieved this by spending most of her time studying. Her teachers and the employers she worked with during her schooling described her as quiet and shy, but intelligent, punctual, and attentive. They would boast about how all her work far surpassed their expectations for such a young girl. She was not considered a prodigy by any means, but she was quite advanced compared to others her age. Victoria was very modest about all these things, not ever mentioning her accomplishments unless someone questioned her, and she would even then be very quiet about it. She stood a meager 5 feet, her slim and petit figure fitting her height perfectly. Her best physical assets being her legs, which she usually covered with skirts that would reach her knees, and her slender neck, which sometimes was accentuated by small chain necklace that her mother had given to her when she was younger. Victoria always came into work with a smile, her heels clicked a greeting as she visited Dr. Drakes lab first thing, to see if he needed anything from her before starting her day. Her first and primary job was to assist Dr. Drake with any jobs that he currently, and Victoria was always eager to volunteer if he needed extra help after hours. However, when she wasnt needed, she would perform odd jobs around the clinic. However, when Victoria was working with Dr. Drake, she was always asking questions, not to be nosy, but simply because she was so enthralled with his research and had a passion for learning. She didnt know much about his more current projects, which he seemed to be working on his own, but Victoria wasnt one to pry. As she began to work closer and closer with Dr. Drake, Victoria began to develop stronger feelings than simple admiration and awe towards the brilliant scientists that was her boss. She soon found herself daydreaming at times that she and the Doctor would work on their own private experiments behind the closed doors of his lab. As of late, he had been hinting to her that he had a rather interesting experiment, and Victoria wondered if he was being serious, or if he was being coy. It didnt matter either way to her, both ways she would have the opportunity to spend more time at his side. That morning, Victoria entered his lap, knocking on the door. Dr. Drake? She called out as her heels clicked on the white linoleum floor of his lab. Are you here? She called out again, walking over to a desk that he normally sat at when he wasnt busy experimenting. Victoria leaned against the edge of the desk and waited for the Doctor to appear. Her main reason for being here today was to inform him of her interest in his new experiment. If he would allow, Victoria wanted to participate as a possible test subject, if he needed. Inside, she was excited to see what Dr. Drake was up to now, and couldnt wait to hear about his new experiment. On the outside, she remained calm, collected, and professional as usual. The only signs pointing to her excitement was the soft blush on her cheeks and a sparkle in her eyes.
