Senior Year-Rucas

Torture Chamber.

Chapter 43

"Alright Riley. How are you feeling?" The brunette was sitting on the doctor's table as he pulled out the scans they took on her knee.

"I'm feeling fine. Thanks." Cory smiled. "I guess, what's more important is how's my knee?"

"Still loose. But, you do have another week of wearing that brace full time. Next Monday we start a little physical therapy." She rolled her eyes, Riley always hated physical therapy. It wasn't therapy, it was a form of legal torture. "I will set your first appointment with them." The doctor started to tighten her brace. "Morning or afternoon?"

"Morning please. I have work in the evenings. What time in the morning could we do it?"

"Well," He applied a little pressure to the brace and it made her wince. "the office opens at 8. It will last for an hour." The cheerleader looked towards her father.

"Dad, i'm going to be a little late to first period." She completely forgot about Thanksgiving break. The doctor laughed and stood up to fill out some paperwork. "How long do I have to endure the torture for?"

"Just a week. After that they'll give you some at home excercises to do, and you will do them. Isn't that right?" She shook her head. "Do you need a medication refill?"

"No, thank you. I'll just take tylenol."

Cory, didin't like that idea. "Riles, are you sure? Once you start therapy you'll be extremely sore. I'm sure you can recall from your ACL." The doctor interrupted.

"How about I write you out a prescription. It will expire next month, but if you need it. Take it in." Riley agreed with reluctance.

"Thank you for your help." The brunette pulled out her phone when it vibrated.

This whole not seeing you in first period thing, isn't working out well for me. How's the doctors?
-This isn't a doctors appointment, it's hell with fluorescent lighting.
Lol. What happened?
-They want me to go to physical therapy next week a.k.a. torture chamber.
I'm sorry babe. But, what did they say about your knee?
-Still loose.
That's bad? Right?
-Yeah, but I still have another week of wearing this brace and he tightened it. Which made it even harder to walk.
Someone's tense this morning.
-Not tense, just very, very aware of what's going on. I went through therapy with my ACL and it blew.
Lol i'll see you in a bit sweetheart. Love you.

"Hello gorgeous!" Riley limped towards him and knew he was lying. Her hair was in a ponytail, she was wearing sweats and a t-shirt and was hating life.

"Shut up." He automatically started laughing.

"Oh, hello cranky! You're a ray of sunshine! Have you taken any medicine today? Want some advil?"

"Yes i'm cranky. And, no I don't want advil. I have a freaking iron leg Lucas!" He rolled his eyes and pulled the advil he kept for her out of his bag, then passed her his water bottle.

"Take it, please. Before I strangle you." Her brown eyes rolled as she swallowed the medicine. "Now, don't make me crush it up and hide it in your food like a dog." The brown eyed girl took that offensively.

"YOU! OFF MY PLANET!" The brunette tried to limp away quickly but was caught up to with ease by her boyfriend.

"Why are you so upset today? Was it the doctor? Does going there for a check up put you in a bad mood?"
