These two are my rocks.

“Hey douchey.” She smiles as she holds my hand.

“I heard that I’m okay. How okay is okay?” I ask trying to sit up slowly.

Dane moves the pillows to support me and adjusts the bed I’m lying on.

“Okay, as in you don’t have to live with us again.” Dane smirks.

“Thank God for that.” I smirk.

“Once the nurse makes her way back, she’ll probably give you your walking papers now that you are awake.” Sterling says, she is grasping my hand pretty tightly.

I squeeze her hand back.

“So, what happened? Did they say?” I ask.

“Well, you were in an accident. The car that hit you wasn’t paying attention to your lane and was going pretty fast and came into your space and propelled you pretty much into the side of the wall. The officer said you weren’t responsive verbally to her questions and then you passed out on her. Now, here you are.”

“And there you are.” I smile.

“How do you feel?” Dane asks.

“Groggy, I have a headache and I feel like I need a neck massage, but other than that. I’m alright.”

The nurse, I presume the female voice that I heard speaking to Sterling, she’s young, looks younger than we are, and approaches my side. She looks familiar.

“And how are you doing Max?” She asks.

She looks oddly familiar. She curls her blonde highlight behind her ear and smiles. I know this girl.

“I’m good. I think. I have no missing body parts, and everything is able to… wiggle.” I smile.

She gasps and then giggles at my not so obvious, but kind of obvious innuendo.

Kailey. Dick sucking in the alley Kailey!

“I’ll be right back with your discharge papers.” She smiles and turns.

“Thanks Kailey.” I call after her and noticing she almost tripped once I said her name and acknowledged that I remembered her.

Sterling and Dane give me a questioning look.

“We had a wonderful evening together.” I explain and they both understand and don’t ask for any further information.

Kailey comes back and seems not as sure of herself as she did before I said her name.

“Here is your paperwork, if you need any stronger pain killers, other than aspirin, just say the word.”

“No need. I can manage pain.” I say.

Kailey nods. “Very well. It was, um… nice to see you again Max.”

“You as well. Thanks for taking good care of me… again.” I wink.

Sterling and Dane helped me up from the bed and I laugh. “You’re such a dog.” Dane laughs.
