"I can't cook and my smoky apartment can attest to that. I killed a nuker meal and didn't have
anything else in the refrigerator. I've only been back a couple of days so the place is barren."
Shay rolled her eyes and groaned, Pez was just like a man. Completely helpless when it came to
domestic things. "You really need to be careful with your hypoglycemia; you could have gone
into a coma."
"It's usually not this bad, the last seven or eight months have been stressful. I burn more energy
when I'm stressed." She threw her trash in the bag, opened a can of Coke and drank half of it
before putting it on the small bedside table. She looked sideways at Shay and saw her start to
speak. "I can't tell you what I was doing except that it concerned the fatalities from 9/11. Guess I
should be heading home so I can get some sleep."
"You're not going anywhere until your blood sugar levels are up, so just flip on the TV and lay
there." She hit the buzzer and waited for the nurse to show up, when she did she asked her to
bring her a Glucometer. By the time the nurse arrived, she had finished her meal and Pez was
sound asleep.
"Do you want me to wake her and get her into a call-room?"
"No I'd rather have her where I can keep an eye on her, after her passing out I want to make sure
her sugar levels don't drop off."
"OK, I have some orange juice here and another shot in case you need them." The nurse put them
on the bedside table and stopped right outside the door. "Just to warn you, a Trooper Osborne has
been trying to get the medical staff to tell her where you are. Doc Griffin passed around that
you're on special assignment in Maryland for the next week and that's what Osborne's been told."
"Thanks I appreciate it." After checking Pez' sugar level and seeing that it was 82, she dropped
back into the pillows and lowered the back of the bed so that she and Pez were lying flat. She
slipped the curved pillow from under her leg and carefully turned onto her left side and watched
Pez sleep. Now with Jenny trying to find her by going through the hospital employees, she would
have to call a locksmith and arrange to have the locks changed when Jenny was at work. The
biggest problem was getting all of Jenny's clothes and stuff packed and out before she got home
from work. There was no way in Hell that she wanted to be anywhere near Jenny right now and
it would be dangerous to be caught moving her stuff. Afterward, she would pack a bag and stay
in a motel for a week or so and hope in that time Jenny would get the hint and leave her alone.
She had no idea why Jenny thought she owned her or had the right to abuse her. They had only
slept together once in the last year and had separate bedrooms. They had no relationship except
for a brutal commanding one. Pez and her Amazons had been kinder to her in the last few days
than Jenny had been in the last six months. And that's saying something since most of the
hospital employees hated her. As strange as the woman in her Superman PJ's was, she found
herself liking her more than she ever had Jenny. She just wished she knew why she had let Jenny
take over her life like she had. Maybe it was insecurity of being alone. Turning the light off and
moving her arm so that her shoulder didn't hurt as bad, she arranged her pillow and closed her
eyes. The sound of deep even breathing lulled her to sleep minutes later.

Besom walked down the hallway towards the doctor's lounge in the ER, he had been trying to
reach Pez all night and into the early morning hours. He had checked the locker room and all the
other hiding places she was usually in so the lounge was the last place. When he walked in, he
found Roy, Griffin and Betty getting their morning coffee but no Pez.
"Has anyone heard from Pez this morning?"
Betty rolled her eyes and snickered at him. "Doc B how can you possibly be the head of this
department and put your clothes on inside out and backwards?" She pointed to his scrub shirt
with the square part against his throat and his lab jacket inside out.
"I wondered why I couldn't find my pockets. Hell, it's been a long night and morning; I really
need to find Pez. I've been getting nasty phone calls from the State police and Sheriffs office
about her; disturbing the peace, reckless driving and the DWI she got last night in Martinsburg."
The three women shook their heads at him; Griffin pulled the chart off the table and handed it to
him. "She checked out her last patient at 1850 last night and I know she went right home because
we were behind her. Her Humvee is parked at the back of the lot and if they had given her a
DWI, she would be in jail and her Humvee would be in the impound lot."
"You said her Humvee is out there, then that means she's in the hospital, but where?" He rubbed
his baldhead and looked between the three of them. "I've checked all her hiding spots, where else
would she be?"
"Doc B did you check Doc Shay's room, that's where I found her the last time." Betty walked
over to the wall phone and called the nurses station on the floor where Shay's room was, after a
few seconds she hung up the phone a waved to Besom. "Come on and let me get you
straightened out on the way to Doc Shay's room."
@@@@@@@@@@@@
Betty helped him out of his lab coat and turned it right side out while he struggled with his scrub
shirt on their way to the elevator. Betty often wondered about him and the way he came dressed
to work. "I really have to get an alarm clock." He pulled his scrub shirt on the right way. "I got
up late and just grabbed clothes out of the laundry basket." He grinned at the older nurse. "My
wife is trying to teach me not to take my clothes off inside out, the way I put them in the wash is
the way I get them back."
"Well it's not working and your shoes don't match either." She pointed to his brown loafer and
tennis shoe. They walked out of the elevator and went down the hall towards Shay's room.
Besom stopped in the doorway and looked over his shoulder at Betty.
"I told her to keep an eye on Doc Shay but I didn't mean literally." He moved out of the way and
let Betty see around him. A bright smile came to her face when she saw that Pez was spooned
