Alice paced the waiting room nervously, occasionally flipping away stray blonde locks that had fallen in her eyes. Dana had went in with the doctors a little over 2 hours ago, and the wait was torturous. She sat down for what seemed like the millionth time in the past few hours, only to get up and pace, letting her shoes clap against the cold tile floor. Hospitals were not her favorite thing in the world. "Son of a bitch, what’s taking them so fucking long." The blonde remembered seeing Dana on the court floor, crying and looking so vulnerable.

A doctor entered, snapping Al from her wonderland. "For Ms. Furbinks." Alice looked at the French doctor with a look that could turn the sun to ice. "It’s Fairbanks, and how is she." The doctor smiled shyly at his mistake. "She’s stable. A broken ankle and some torn ligaments. You can see her if you like." Alice was by his side in a flash, following him down a long corridor full of nurse stations and sick patients. Doors lined the hallway, and Alice’s mind wandered to the family at home.

They stopped in front of a closed door, and the doctor motioned for Alice to enter. She closed the door behind her and took a breath before looking at Dana. The athlete smiled weakly and bit her lip. Alice was by her side and holding her hand kissing it in a second flat. "Oh, baby, you scared me so bad. How are you feeling? Does it hurt? Are you gonna be able to play tennis still? Wait! Can we still have sex?!" Dana broke out into a fit of uncontrollable giggles while the writer pouted like a 2 year old.

"Al, I’m fine. I feel ok, really I just wanna go home. Yes, it hurts, quite a bit. As for tennis, I’m not sure what’s going to happen, babe. And as for the sex, you think ANYTHING would be able to get me to keep my hands off you you’re wrong." A big cheesy grin broke out across Dana’s face as Alice leaned in and stopped a few inches from her face. "I love you, Dana."

Dana leaned in the rest of the way and kissed Alice passionately. "I love you too, baby. You know what me being hurt means don’t you?" Alice thought for a minute. "No?" Dana kissed her again. "You get to be my sexy nurse!" Alice’s eyes lit up like a child’s at christmas time. "That’s what I’m talking bout." She leaned in and kissed a few more times when Alice’s annoying cell phone blared off a goofy, chipper little tune. She reached into her pocket and answered it.

"Hello?" Bette’s voice was strained and frantic. "Oh my god, Al. Is Dana ok? What happened? We saw it on the news…" Alice took a deep breath. "She broke her ankle and tore a few ligaments, but shes ok." Alice heard Bette convey the message to everyone and the round of small cheers and "thank gods". Bette’s voice returned to the line. "Ok, well when are you gonna be home?" Alice turned to Dana and mouthed the question. "As soon as possible, most likely late tomorrow night." They said thier goodbyes, and Alice turned back to Dana. "I can’t wait to get out of here, I hate hospitals." Alice giggled at her girlfriend before leaning to kiss her.
