RECAP
"First," he said, "we're going to take a few X-Rays of your legs, since that seems where the most damage is. Then we're going to tak some of your ribs, your arms, and maybe your head, depending on your conditions stated by Dr. Love." He paused for a moment, looking at my scared face. "Oh, I'm sorry. I forgot to introduce myself." He stood tall. "My name is Dr. Snape. And before you say anything, yes, it's like the Snape in Harry Potter."
I laughed. "Honestly, I couldn't care if your name was from Harry Potter. As long as you're nice, I'm fine."

END OF RECAP
I watched Finnick pace back and forth in front of me. Why was he pacing? X-Rays aren't very serious proceedures. They're very basic and do not cause any pain. And why would he be pacing? He's the one who caused her to be in this situation. I, on the other hand, should be pacing. I'm the one who had the dragon balls to marry me. (a/n: Sassy Gay Shinigami reference. See side video.)
"Why the hell are you pacing? May I remind you that you're the reason why she's in the hospital? If you didn't get pissed at her for rolling her eyes three times then we wouldn't be in this situation!" I yelled. God, he makes me so angry.
"And your point is?" He looked at me with his stupid blue eyes, like I was the one who put her in here.
"My point is, you shouldn't be worried about her because, if you didn't beg Mrs. Lynn to get us into this arranged marriage, we wouldn't be here. And me and Zuri would live happily ever after, knowing we made the right decision in life." I sat back and crossed my arms. "Besides, X-Rays aren't things that you should get worked up about. I mean, seriously. What kind of pain can X-Rays cause?" That's when we heard Zuri screaming.
"Ow! Ow! Ow! Ow!"
I bursted through the door. I looked down at her, worried that the X-Rays did cause her pain. I was relieved when I saw her, lying there, unharmed. "What happened?" I giggled.
"The pain medicine wore off, and I didn't know. I went to sit up but I got a sharp pain in my back." She looked up at the technician. "Dr. Snape, I think you need to take a X-Ray of my back, too."
Dr. Snape walked out from the small little room. "Ok," he said. "But I'm going to need help flipping you over. And i'm sorry if it causes you pain." Good. He apologized in advance.
"Ok. Can we have Austin help? I trust him more than anyone else." I smiled. I never heard her say that.
"Fine." Dr. Snape walked over to me. "We need to be very careful with her. She has some pretty bad trauma in her legs. I want you to go grab Dr. Love" Zuri made romantic type music when he said Dr. Love's name. "-Thank you Zuri- so he can properly secure her legs so there isn't anymore trauma. Ok?" I nodded and rushed out of the room.
"What was it?" Finnick questioned as soon as I got out. He looked concern, but I had no time to talk to him.
"Later," I said quickly. I ran down to the nurse's station. "Can you page Dr. Love to the X-Ray room? Dr. Snape needs him." They looked at me like I was crazy but they paged him. I tried to keep from laughing when I heard over the speakers;
"Paging Dr. Love to the X-Ray. Paging Dr. Love to the X-Ray room. Paging Dr. Love."
I ran back to the X-Ray room, but got stopped by Finick.
"What the hell happened?" I groaned and quickly explained how Zuri didn't know the pain medicine wore off and blah, blah, blah, threat, threat, threat. I walked into the room where Dr. Snape showed me how to stabilize the head and neck. we waited for Dr. Love to come, which he eventually did, saying as he walked into the room, "How did Finnick survive the beheading in Mockingjay?" (a/n: Hunger Games reference.)
We laughed for a moment then got to flipping Zuri over. It was that hard. I was asked to go outside for a moment, where I resumed lauging.
"What did he say?" Finnick asked. I couldn't tell him because I was laughing too hard.
**Zuri's prespective**
I got a total of 14 X-Rays. It hurt just to be in one position for 2 minutes while they're taking X-Rays Dr. Snape walked out and told Austin and Finnick that they could roll me back to the room while waiting for the X-Rays' results. Dr. Snape handed me more pain medicine and a cup of water before calling in the boys to get me in to the wheelchair. While Finnick and Dr. Snape put me in my wheelchair, Austin held onto Sniffles, making sure she wasn't going to get hurt. He handed me her back once I was settled in the chair.
"If only Bonnie could see me now," I muttered. (a/n: My friend Madison was jealous of me because I got to ride in a wheelchair when I had sugery on my foot. She's always wanted to ride one, and that's the reference.)
We rolled down the hallway as I was hoping Finnick and Austin forgot what we were talking about before. Unfortunatly, they remembered.
"So, Zuri," Finnick stated, "What's the secret that you've kept from us for a long time?"
