Pain and the need to pee woke me up. I sat up and looked around groggily. Where was I?
“What do you need?”
I stared up at Sergeant Stone. “Bathroom.”
Stone held out his hand. “I’ll show you the way.”
“Okay.” I took his hand and blinked in confusion. All I was wearing was a baggy green tee shirt. “Where are my pants?”
“They were covered in blood.” He led me across a hallway and opened a door.
“Oh.” I frowned and pointed. “That’s a urinal.”
“Yes, it is.”
“Why are we in the men’s restrooms? I’m a girl.”
“That you are.” Grinning, Stone guided me over to a stall and opened the door. “In you go.”
“No peeking.” I shut the door.
“No, ma’am.”
I sat on the toilet and did my business. “Are you laughing at me?”
“No, ma’am.”
“Why are you ma’aming me?”
“Because you’re high on morphine and too damn cute.”
Was he being nice to me? No way. I pulled off some toilet paper and stared at it for a moment. “Well, stop it.”
“Are you done, soldier?”
I wiped myself. “Yes.” I stood, flushed the toilet and pulled up my panties. Wait a minute. These weren’t my panties.
“Open the door, Tess.”
I did as he asked. “These aren’t my panties.” I yanked up my tee shirt. “See?”
His grin got bigger. “We got you fresh underwear.”
“Why?”
“Because your clothes were covered in blood.”
“Oh.” I sat on the floor. “Tired.” I laid down.
“No, you don’t.” Stone scooped me up. “You need to take your pills.”
“Don’t wanna.” I laid my head against his shoulder. “Promise you won’t let him kill me.”
“I promise.” Stone sat me on a bed. “Open your mouth.”
“What if I have bad breath?”
“You don’t.”
“You sure about that?”
“I am. Now take your pills.”
I opened my mouth.
Stone dropped two pills on my tongue and handed me a bottle of water. “Swallow them and you can have some chocolate.”
“Okay.” I washed the pills down. “Where’s my chocolate?”
“In my backpack. I’ll get it.”
A wave of weariness rolled over me. The minute my head hit the pillow I fell asleep.
Howdy. My name is Gail Koger and once upon a time I was a 9-1-1 dispatcher. Too many years of wild requests, screwy questions, bizarre behavior and outrageous demands have left me with a permanent twitch and an uncontrollable craving for chocolate. I took up writing science fiction romance to keep from killing people. So far, it has worked.
