I Scream for Ice Cream – Chapter 2 – Where Am I?
Ash awoke and he instantly got the message that he wasn't at home. He was in some sort of unfamiliar and yet extremely cool bed, and the room it was in was also strange and he had never seen it before. What tacky wallpaper, he thought to himself. Wow, the bed had moveable thinger majiggers! The resting position he was in can be changed to a sitting position without having to sit? How cool is this! It's like a hospital bed! Oh my gosh…Am I, in a…HOSPITAL?! He thought aloud to himself. A nurse walked in wearing a very short, fringed black skirt. She had a tiny nametag on her barely there halter that said, 'Hey, my name is Tanya'. Ash started to look embarrassed as drool escaped from his astonished face.
"Hey handsome. You seemed to have passed out at Baskin Robbins. We rushed an ambulance right over and I sat with you as some girl in a Corvette followed us back to the hospital. She is in the waiting room right now demanding to see you, you are probably dying to see her. Oh and you probably got food poisoning. Are you feeling OK?" Tanya said to him, putting sympathy in her voice. She sauntered over to his bed and sat down in the armchair next to him.
Ash sat there, his heart beating so passionately and so fast. "No, I don't think I'm up to talking to her right now. So, uh, Tanya, are you dating anyone right now?" In his mind he made a really loud wolf whistle. She was gorgeous!
Tanya chuckled softly. "No, not currently, why, are you interested? Because I wouldn't mind…Why don't you come over to my place when they let you out of this terrible, drafty, place? Oh and isn't the wallpaper so ugly?"
Ash said, "I was thinking the same thing! I hate this wallpaper! Oh I'll be there! Say, when do I get released anyway?
"Well, the doc said you should be OK in a few hours actually!"
"Great, why don't I swing a ride home with you afterwords?"
"Sure," Tanya replied, nodding in agreement, "you can stay the night if you want to."
"OK, I'll be over soo---" came Ash's trailed off voice as he heard Misty's concerned voice walk up the stairs with her. "Tanya, pretend you just came in to wake me up!" Ash laid down as if he was in a dead sleep.
Tanya looked confused. "But why?"
Uh-oh, Misty was nearing the door, he could feel it in his nervous, shaking arms. Why did Tanya have to be so stubborn? "Just do it!" Ash sounded quite aggravated.
