                "I should whoop both your asses!" My blood boils with anger.
                 So Renee DID in fact have a bike accident and she DID in fact end up in a ditch. But that's not why Lucy called me. No, Lucy called me because Renee has to have five shots in her swelling arm, which is 99% broken, but she is too concerned with the damn shot at get an x-ray. This pisses me off so badly. And to top it all off, it's thundering and lightening bad outside! I hate thundering and lightening so much.
                  "The doctor tried to give her some medication to calm her down but she refused to take any of it." Lucy says,  "She keeps complaining that her arm hurts—"
                  I whip my head over at Renee's whose being stubborn right now. "BECAUSE YOU NEED MEDS RENEE!!!!!"
                 Renee rolls her eyes at me, annoyed. "I'm terrified of needles! That's why I won't get a tattoo."
                 "I should bitch slap the both of you!" I exclaim, "Brenton is gonna make you take that medication when and if he gets here. Did you get a hold of him yet?"
                  "No, he's working." Lucy says with her arms moving frantically around, "And Renee is over here! Being a stubborn butt!"
                  "—Ass." Both Renee and I correct Lucy.
                   "I'm gonna get a snack, okay? I can't handle her anymore!" Lucy leans into me, "She wouldn't take the pills and she didn't even wanna see the liquid."
                   I roll my eyes at her. Renee is being such a baby right now! It's just 5 needles! 3 for pain relief and the other two is to draw blood. My hands are balled up into tight fist, I turn and look at the tray with Lucy's purse on it. The mini med cup with purple liquid catches my eye, but then, something else catches my eye.
                 My mouth goes agap at the sight of a sparkly liquor flask. I grab it from Lucy's purse and stare at it in shock. Lucy has NEVER been known to drink or smoke anything. I thought she was living a healthy lifestyle? I sure was wrong. Then I get a terrible, awful idea. An evil smile spreads across my lips, I loosen the flask and tighten it up again.
               I turn to Renee whose crying in pain. "Well, if you won't take the doc's meds, take mine."
                I hold out the mini cup with purple liquid in it. Renee gives me a confused look.
                "What IS it?" Renee whines.
                 "Straight vodka with grape Jolly Rancher." I answer quickly, "Booze always calms me down."
                   Renee gives me a look. "The hell? You drink?"
                     "Ah, yeah? Duh. Evan drinks, why can't I?" I can barely take two sips of Evan's whiskey and I am dancing naked on top of Evan's living room coffee table giving him a terrible lap dance. "It's part of dating an older man, Renee. Catch up."
                    "I knew you got drunk and was late to work, but it sounds to me like you got a drinking problem." Renee moves her arm and she flinches, "Oh, my arm hurts so damn bad!"
                   Right then and there,  I hold the mini cup to Renee's lips and she takes it all down. She coughs and shakes her head at the taste. I smirk, she just took the Doc's meds. Hopefully she'll be out soon and Brenton will come so I can go screw Evan some more. I don't wanna be here when Renee wakes up and realized what I did.
                Curiously, I rummaged through Lucy's purse to find some more interesting shit. I found the sparkly flask and, get this, a whole book about sex positions! Now, I cringe during sex scenes in movies. I do. I don't wanna see other people going at it, but my ass still sat there and read through every page as Renee was knocked out by the drugs. I can't believe some of the things people do to get off. It's revolting! But, surprisingly, some of it looks kind of fun.
            Footsteps bring me back from the book of sin. When I look up Lucy stands there wide eyes and mouth gapped open with Brenton. His eyes are focused on Renee. Lucy rushes over to me and snatches the book from my hands and shoved it back into her purse. She blushes red with embarrassment.
                I stand and put a hand on Brenton's shoulder. "I had to drug her stubborn ass. I find humor in it."
               With that, I walk out of the emergency room. Lucy calls after me. She grabs me by the bicep and whips me around.
               "Brooke! You went through my stuff!" I nod to her, "Why?"
                "I was bored. PLUS, I told Renee that the pretty little flask was mine and I made her take her meds. All is well."
              "No it's not!" Lucy says embarrassed.
              I give Lucy a look. "You like booze and want to be wild in bed when Mr. Right comes. There's no shame in that."
            "I'm a virgin!" She hisses at me.
            "Then your husband should be proud." I walk out of the hospital with nothing holding me back.
