I was awakened in the late afternoon by voices in my room. When I opened my eyes I was greeted by the sight of Ms. Penny, frowning down at me. She was accompanied by a man in a white doctor's jacket and Mercy, was standing in the background, smiling at me.
The man, seeing I was awake, greeted me, "Welcome back to the world of the living, young man. I'm Dr. Evans. How are you feeling?"
"Pretty good except for all these tubes and wires attached to me, Doctor."
"Well, I don't see that it is necessary to keep them on you any longer. How are the legs doing?" he asked, pinching my toenails to test my circulation.
"Oh, they're just fine, Doctor, I'll be ready for football practice tomorrow," I joked.
"Well, I don't think that will be possible, but with practice you'll get alone just fine on crutches. How would you like to get out of here?" he asked.
I looked over at Mercy, and she was bouncing her head up and down like a Jack-in-the-box. "Oh, that would be great, Doctor. Thank you."
"I understand it was the night-nurse that hit you with her car."
"Yes, Doctor, but it was not her fault, I was walking down the middle of the road, daydreaming."
"Well, in any case her car insurance will take care of all of your bills and she volunteered to look after you. I was going to release you today, but if she is working here, who will take care of you?"
Mercy, jumped forward, "Doctor, the night nurse and I are sisters, we live together so there is no reason that I can't take care of him until my sister comes home in the morning." She smiled up at him with totally innocent eyes.
"Well, alright, if you're sure you can take care of him, young lady."
"Oh, yes, Doctor, I'll take good care of him, don't you worry about that." Mercy's eyes continued to show innocence.
The doctor said, "Well, okay then." Then turning to Ms. Penny, he said, "See that those wires are removed and have him ready for release by the end of this young lady's shift."
"Yes, Doctor, I'll see that it's done," she frowned down at Mercy, who looked very sheepishly back at her.
They all left my room, but a few minutes later Mercy was back, carrying a set of crutches. She was giggling when she stepped over to the bed.
"Oh, I'll take good care of you alright, don't you worry about that. Lots of tender loving care is what the doctor ordered, and that is what you are going to get."
I had to smile at her enthusiasm. One would think I was the one in the mid-twenties, and she was the eighteen-year old, instead of the other way around. What a little minx she was. This girl would fuck a rhinoceros horn if he would stand still long enough so she could mount it.
Once she removed all the electrodes from my body, I was free to get as excited as I liked, without them seeing that on the nurses' monitor. Plus, I could now move around without being tied up in tangles.
"Now, you will have to lay down on your back, so I can measure you for the crutches," she said.
I did as she said, and stretched myself out for her. She pushed the yoke of the crutch up under my arm pit and adjusted the hand piece to the length of my arm. After that she extended the leg piece until it was even with the heel of my leg cast. Mercy adjusted the other crutch the same way, and then lowered the bed, so that it was closer to the floor and so that I would not have to jump down.
I swung myself around and pulled myself up by the crutches. At first I was a little unsure and wobbly, but after only a couple of minutes I was moving around the room like a pro.
Mercy was delighted with my progress. It meant that I would not be helpless and immobile after all.
Now she said, "We just have to wait until they bring up the paperwork and you 'll be ready to go. Your clothes were pretty well destroyed in the accident, so I got this bath robe for you out of the hospital grab-bag. It looks like a pretty nice one, too. If you don't like it, just be grateful it's not pink," she grinned. "Anyway, once I have you home, there should not be much need for clothes anyway" Her eyes sparkled at her little joke.
"Well, I have some things to get done before I can go home, so you just sit here and relax."
I lay back and relaxed for a few minutes and a police officer walked in the door. "Hello" he said, "I'm Officer Jackson, I'm an accident investigator and I need to hear your version of what happened yesterday."
"The accident was all my own fault, Officer Jackson, I was walking down the middle of the road in a shaded area, and I must admit my mind was a thousand miles away, and the lady's car came down the road out of the sunny area into the shadow of the trees. It was stupid of me, if I had been at the side of the road instead of smack in the middle, the whole thing would have never happened."
"I see" said the policeman, "Well, I understand that the lady's auto insurance will pay all your medical bills, So I don't think we will hear anymore about it." He turned to leave, thanking me for my honesty, and was gone.

I sat down on the bed and waited, and as is usual in hospitals, the wait ended up taking hours. And I started to wonder if something had gone wrong. Afternoon turned into early evening. Still no word. Then my room door opened and Mercy walked in followed by Carol, the sister and night nurse.
"Well, I see that you are being released a little early. If I had of known that, I would have found some excuse to get the night off." She looked at me with a wicked smile and licked her lips very slowly so that I wouldn't miss the point. "I understand that you have been taking good care of my baby sister, Jimmy," Carol smiled a very seductive smile, as she ran her palm over the budge that appeared in the bed sheet over my crotch.
