Sarah gives her wife the once over in her bathing suit and licks her lips, before typing away on her phone.
New Message
Sarah: Hey there gorgeous; can I buy you a drink?
Abby looks at her phone, chuckles and nods. "You can pay for them, but, I guess I'm on the hook to order them, right?"
Sarah shrugs and passes Abby over her personal credit card to buy them drinks. Abby kisses her cheek and then makes her way over to the bar area to place their order. Returning a few minutes later with two drinks in hand and taking the seat beside her wife.
Sarah: Where is everyone today?
"It's a recovery day, so once we've done our team recovery the remainder of the day is ours to do with how we choose. I'm suprised that they aren't a few girls poolside with us. They could be chilling in the A/C though rather than sunshine like us."
Sarah: Do you want to go back inside?
"No. I want my wife to rub some lotion on me, so, I don't burn."
Sarah gives Abby a thumbs up and Abby chuckles. Digging in her bag Abby pulls out the lotion and passes it over to Sarah to apply.
"Would you like me to put some lotion of your shoulder and back?"
Sarah looks at her and nods, before turning her back towards her and allowing her wife to apply the tropically scented lotion to her.
"Thank you." Sarah's voice is scratchy and rough sounding as she speaks for the first time in the last few days."
"Are you planning on talking now?"
"Just with you. Babe, I think I'm going to need to go and see a doctor about my throat, it's not healing like I'd hoped by not talking, in fact it feels worse when I swallow and my neck hurts."
Abby stands up and packs her stuff, "Lets go. We can check in with one of the team Docs and see what she says."
"I want to spend the day with you."
"And you will be, after. Grab your stuff superstar and I'm going to message her and see if she's still at the hotel."
Sarah follows her wife inside, ticked off that she's now ruined their day together with what she assumes is just a case of laryngitis, that'll clear up on its on soon enough.
As they head back to the hotel room and get changed, Abby arranged for the doctor to come to Sarah's room, so it's less noticeable.
"Not necessary, Abs."
"Sit your stubborn ass down and shut up!"
Sarah bursts out laughing, not expecting that type of response from her wife, but doing as she's told.
Sarah: How long?
"Should be here anytime. Be nice, she doesn't have to do this."
Sarah: I'm always nice!
Abby chuckles and shakes her head, "Not always."
Hearing a knock at the door Abby answers it and lets one of the United States Women's National Teams doctors in to take a look at Sarah.
Sarah sits on the end of the bed and lets the doctor do her thing, asking questions as she does. She has a feeling it's not going to be good news when she winces at the feeling a hands and fingers feeling around her neck and throat area.
The doctor takes a step back and looks at her. "Have you ever had or been treated for a swollen voice box or vocal cord nodules?"
Sarah shakes her head. "Not laryngitis?"
