He opened his eyes. His head throbbed. There was a man looking down at him with a clipboard in hand.
"He's coming to," the man said.
"Good, I was wondering when sleeping beauty was going to wake up," a woman's voice replied.
Chris raised his head, and then raised his upper body. He felt heavy and dizzy. Quickly, he put his hands at his sides and attempted to balance himself.
"Easy there, lay down," the man in the white coat said.
Chris followed his instructions. He felt a bit nauseous.
"I'll take it from here." The woman said, "I want to take a look at his head, he took quite a fall."
The man in white exited the room.
"Thirsty?" the woman asked. Chris nodded his head. She exited the room quickly.
Don't look at her ass, Chris thought, as he saw her leave.
She returned with a small cup. "You might be nauseous still, don't want you making a mess all over me," she handed him the cup with ice chips. "You'll get some water, juice, if you like, in a bit.
Chris sucked on the ice. He looked down at his feet. They were covered in pastel colored slippers. He did not have any pants on. His upper body lay under a hospital gown. A thin blanket was over his legs. Did he have on any underwear, he asked himself? He looked into the doctor's big brown eyes. She was not very tall, maybe a bit past his nose, he thought. Her hair was honey colored, and curled. There was a smile on her face. She was thin, with delicate features. The Doctor leaned in close to him. Don't stare at her breast, he thought.
There was an IV attached to Chris's arm. "That IV doesn't look very good," she said. He brought his arm over to her. He felt a sharp pain, winced, made a face and pulled his arm back. "The arm too? Well, we will take a look at that also." The doctor reached over him to fix the dangling IV.
She was very pretty. Her hands were warm, in contrast to the artificial coolness of the hospital room.
"Now, let's see, a bit of tape here, and here, and here. Now, how does that look?"
