CHAPTER 7

Cassidy offered her friends and Guardians the use of her shower and clean robes to wear after they had cleaned up; the robes appeared from nowhere for each of them, so that part was easy.

She waited until the last one had exited the shower and settled in the living area, before trying to clean up herself. Cassidy spent time in the office, ordering food and supplies for tomorrow, pizza for tonight.

The doorbell chimed just as the last of her friends finished in the shower. Cassidy announced she was going to get in the shower, then join her friends for pizza. They had all been quiet and subdued. She was beginning to worry because none of her friends seemed to be dealing with anything, she decided to clean up before she started that discussion.

She had just entered the bathroom when there was a light knock on the door; she opened it and was surprised to see Justice standing there in a robe. He apologized for interrupting, but he wanted to look at her wounds that needed cleaning before she showered.

She was surprised that Justice had to remind her she was hurt. She didn’t feel any of the pain she should be, and was even more surprised when she looked down and saw she was a bloody mess.

Cassidy opened the door wider to allow him into the bathroom with her. He had a first aid kit in his hand and very gently had her sit down. “I will treat the shoulder first,” he said.

Cassidy winced as he pulled her shirt off her shoulder. The blood had dried and her shirt was stuck. He took his time freeing the shirt from the wound. Finally, he said, “You have several pieces of glass in your skin; I can call a doctor or try to get them myself. Which would you prefer?”

“Go ahead,” she said, “I don’t have the energy to call or wait.” Cassidy felt him tug on the pieces of glass, and she realized they were bigger than she had thought. “Wow, I didn’t even feel those in there, now it’s starting to hurt.” She grimaced as he took a large piece out of her shoulder blade.

Justice had just finished her shoulder when Kallen appeared in the doorway. “Pizza is here. Shit, Cassi what the hell did you do?” He came into the bathroom.

All of her friends were squishing in, each exclaiming their dismay when they saw her wounds.

Celli started crying again. “Cassi, you have to take better care of yourself. What if something happens to you too?” Cami's eyes filled up and nodded her head with Celli.

Justice spoke up to the crowd, “Guys, I’m taking care of her. Her shoulder is cleaned up; I have gotten all the glass out. We have to see to her leg, which may need stitches, so can I get some room? Kallen can you stay and help?” he asked; the rest of her friends left and Kallen closed the door.

“Sorry, I shouldn’t have said that so loud, but I was surprised; usually Cassi is a wimp.
