“I’m sorry I’m sorry I’m sorry I’m sorry…” I panted through sobs into her chest.

“ssshh baby it’s ok” she whispered crying.

We held onto each other until there was a knock at the door. We let go of each other as the nurse from before entered followed by an attractive man in his thirties.

He came up to me extending his hand.

“Hello Miss Kennard, I am DR. Owen” he smiled.

“Hi” I said, taking his hand.

“And you are…?” he extended his hand towards Bette.

“I’m Bette Porter” she answered taking his hand. “I am Tina’s…” she didn’t know how to finish the sentence so I did it for her.

“She’s my girlfriend” I said taking a hold of Bette’s hand.

“Ok” he smiled as he looked down into his folder.

“So Tina, you came in here with alcohol poisoning” “What we did was we pumped your stomach and I think we got all of it out”

“Do you feel dizzy?” he asked

“No” I shook my head.

“Ok that’s good…now I just need to look into your eyes with this he said taking out a small flashlight from his pocket.

He pointed it to my eyes.

“Everything looks good” he said smiling. “We also got your blood results back and they are normal”

“Sarah here will take your blood pressure to make sure it is also normal”

Then his face turned serious.

“Miss Kennard, when patients come in here with an overdose of either alcohol or drugs we are forced to contact the psychiatry department in this hospital” 

“They are sending a psychologist down here this afternoon and then you will be evaluated before we know whether to send you home or not” he said looking at me seriously.

“Ok” I said in a weak voice looking down at the floor.

“Ok, well it was nice to meet you Miss Kennard” he smiled as he got ready to leave.

DR. Owen left and Bette walked outside to call James as Sarah stayed to take my blood pressure.

“Your girlfriend is very beautiful… you make a great couple” she smiled at me.

“I’m not sure she’s my girlfriend anymore” I said in a low voice as I looked down “I fucked it up”
