August 20, 200719 yr Author Luke noded his tight face lessening a little as his foot began to numb as the pain killers took effect. "Are you alright?"
August 20, 200719 yr Author Luke reached out his hand towards the immobilizer. "You sure don't look fine. What'd they say?"
August 20, 200719 yr Bo shrugged with the one shoulder he could."Uh...I got a hairline fracture and the muscles in my shoulder are inflammed..."
August 20, 200719 yr Author Luke swallowed withdrawing his hand as if he had been burnt. "A ..a fracture? I...I factured your sh-shoulder?!"
August 20, 200719 yr Bo sighed and shook his head."Luke it's a hairline fracture, it ain't that bad. It don't even hurt...and it was an accident so don't you go blaiming yourself or i'm gonna give ya a smack like the doctor got..."
August 20, 200719 yr Bo shrugged again, sitting back in the chair."Little bit...he didn't get what I was telling him so I knocked some sense into him instead..."
August 20, 200719 yr Author "You still ain't told me why ya hit him..." said Luke looking at Bo. "What on earth did he do to make ya so mad?
August 20, 200719 yr Bo shook his head, not really wanting to divulge what the doctor had been saying about Luke, knowing it would only make Luke doubt himself more and Bo didn't want that to happen...Jaime was counting on Luke and she couldn't afford to see him having a breakdown because of something the doctor said."It doesn't matter...point is he won't say it again..."
August 20, 200719 yr Author Luke wasn't stupid. He had a pretty good idea what had happened, but he said nothing. "Will...will you let Jesse know...where I'm at...and what's going on?"
August 20, 200719 yr Bo shook his head."Don't need to...saw the pretty doctor comin' outta your room and she was headed to the waiting room...he'll probably be in here in a minute..."
August 20, 200719 yr Author Luke nodded slightly just as Jesse came bursting into the room. "How're my boys?""Fine Uncle Jesse..."Jesse looked between them and looked at Bo. "What'd the doc say bout you?"
August 20, 200719 yr Bo sighed and said in a simple sounding tone of voice."Just said I got a hairline fracture an' my muscle in my shoulder's inflammed is all.."
August 20, 200719 yr Author "A fracture?! That's all?!" Jesse sighed shaking his head. "You boys'll be the death of me."Luke frowned. "I'm sorry."
August 20, 200719 yr Bo rolled his eyes a little and shook his head."Uncle Jesse come on its not like Luke's killed me. So he squeezed my shoulder a little hard, big deal. Don't worry about it, i'll be right as rain before you know it and stop apologisin' for an accident Luke..."
August 20, 200719 yr Author "Now I ain't said it wasn't...an accident's an accident. Meantime...I'm gonna go call Daisy and see if she got Jaime to school and sort out the bill." Shaking his had, he walked out the door."Hate it when he gets like that..." sighed Luke.
August 20, 200719 yr Author "I s'pose he's jut worried...but it sure don't make ya feel no better..." said Luke with a scowl.
August 20, 200719 yr Bo chuckled a little."Ah well...your already turnin' out like he is so I guess its good for you to take notes on how to act Uncle Jesse like..."
August 20, 200719 yr Author "Great," said Luke sarcastically. He wasn't all sure that that was a good thing or not.
