I sneak up behind her so she doesn’t see me coming and as soon as I get right behind her I place my right hand over her mouth and my left arm around her body pinning her arms at her sides.  Now mind you I thought I was being smart about this but I did forget a very minor detail..but important one at that..Rachel has a black belt in Karate and has taken self defense classes….I found myself doubled over then on the floor in a matter of seconds after an elbow to the ribs and being flipped over her right shoulder.  I think I’m dead

“Fuck Bette!”  She scolded as she realized who she just broke in half “Jesus!…Why would you do that!”

She kneels down beside me as I wince in pain holding my side.  Yep that’s gonna leave a bruise

“I’m….uh…begin..owwww..beginning. to ask…Owww..myself tha..that…quest…question” I managed to say between ragged breaths as I lay there staring at Rachel’s face then see Donna’s appear beside her

“Uhmm…What are you doing on the floor Bette?” Donna asked so nonchalantly with no concern whatsoever in her voice like it’s the most normal thing in the world for me to be lying on their kitchen floor wincing in pain

“The bitch snuck up on me and grabbed me and I elbowed her in the ribs and flipped her over my shoulder”

“What for?” Donna asks as I finally catch my breath and roll over to my side.  I push myself up and prop up on my left arm

“Because you two left the front door unlocked and anyone could walk in here and attack you”

“Seems like that didn’t work out in this case did it?” Donna replied laughing

“That’s not the point D….But it’s good to know that at least one of you can defend yourselves if needed…But please just lock the damn door when you aren’t going in and out of it”

“What do you mean one of us?” Donna asks insulted.  “Rachel has taught me everything she knows”

I look between the two and scoffed as I finally sit up straight holding my side. “Yeah..I’m sure she has.  But whatever.  Keep the door locked”

Rachel sighs. “Ok.  You’re right….Let’s help her up D”
