“I’m here,” I promised.

Even though I was missing four meetings, as well as practice at the circus.

To say that I was busy would be an understatement, but I wouldn’t be leaving Ande alone.

Not after witnessing her nerves firsthand.

“All righty, then,” he said. “Well, let me sign the leg that we’re fixing. When that’s done, I’ll get the anesthesiologist in here to get that nerve block in.”

Everything happened fast after that.

Nurses and doctors were in and out, getting Garnett up and ready to go.

Meanwhile, Ande was huddled so far under my shoulder that she was practically trying to disappear into my body.

Everyone left, and soon we were alone again, waiting for a transport.

“I have to pee,” Garnett said.

Then her legs were swinging over the bed.

“Oh, God! Mom!” Ande cried, shielding my eyes. “What the hell?”

“What?” Garnett cried.

It was too late, though.

I’d already seen.

And I would have to remember for the rest of my life not to think about seeing what I’d seen.

Not saying that it was a bad thing to look at, but I couldn’t particularly say that seeing my girl’s mom’s vagina was something that I’d ever wanted to see.

I quickly looked down and buried my face into Ande’s hair, my shoulders shaking as I tried to suppress my laughter.

My God.

“You totally cooch shotted us!” she cried out.

“I did not, and you know it,” she snapped as she caught up her IV bag and started to walk out.

Which is when I saw her ass.

“Mom!” Ande cried out. “You can’t just walk, you have a nerve block!”

Then she was up and running, gathering up Garnett’s hospital gown seconds later.

I pinched the bridge of my nose as they both disappeared.

This was going to be awesome when she came down from anesthesia. I just knew it.

Two hours later, we were in the waiting room, and Ande was practically dying beside me.

“I hate hospitals,” she grumbled.

“You’re in them all the time as a flight nurse,” I pointed out.
