When Cherry, Strawberry, and Quaker reached the testing area, Cherry was beyond nervous.
"I really hope I don't have anything" she said.

"Cherry, why did you blow him?" Quaker asked.
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnSNGRyi2GH
"He promised me cocaine!" Cherry said, and Quaker sighed.

373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbcjqPWl2jG
A few hours later, Cherry found out that she had chlamydia.
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlaEvWxOs7j
"You HAD to have gotten it from Muffins" Quaker said. "He had sex with Lemonade, and we all know how much of a skank she is"
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN5omovBQP8
"Sully and Ringo had sex with her, too..." Strawberry pointed out.
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFGIIKOozY6
"Not unprotected" Cherry tried to hold back the tears.
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdRoG8USIbl
"Well, you've gotta let Muffins know" Quaker said. "And Sully. And Ringo. And Stitch. And all of them need to get tested and possibly treated as well"
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmhf3TE9He6
Cherry sighed, as they headed back up to Sully's room.
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9U9e6WydSJ
When they got up to the lounge room, Cherry asked to speak with Stitch privately, so they went into Sully's room.
"What's wrong, Cher?" Stitch asked.
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJoRMVvbT4t
"I- I have chlamydia" Cherry whispered. "I got it from Muffins. You might wanna, you know, get tested. They gave me antibiotics"
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgF884jRKvQ
"Oh, wow" Stitch said. "Tha- Thanks for letting me know. Does Muffins know?"
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE4XjOlU5Hc
"Not yet," Cherry said. "Where is he?"
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrxPlJOayUc
"He ran to the store to get cigs" Stitch said. "I can tell him when he comes back up if you'd like"
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkLt954TfyF
"Thanks, Stitch" Cherry said.
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbH3aWqC8zF
They half hugged, awkwardly, and walked back to the lounge.
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHY8GbxZB51
Awhile later, one of Sully's nurses came out into the lounge room.
"He just came out of surgery" she said. "He's going to be just fine"
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz8WrgdrMbj
"Oh my god, that's wonderful!" Cherry jumped up and hugged the nurse.
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrHNvkI9tkB
"I'll let you know when you can go see him" the nurse smiled, and walked back down the hall.
Stitch ran after the nurse.
"Can you rapid test him for STDs?" Stitch whispered to the nurse. "I know that's a thing. I've seen it in the movies"
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx7o608fxKI
"Um, sure" the nurse looked at him side eyed.
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡokDPnU4CB2
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0FyGZA1Smf
About 30 minutes later, the nurse came back out and motioned for Stitch to follow her.
"It's negative" she said. "He's getting antibiotics already anyways though if you're really worried. They're in his IV and they're pretty strong"
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR1wVk5hgJM
"You're the best" Stitch smiled, passing her 5 dollars.
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4dWordRTmY
The nurse looked at him strangely and walked away.
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEROJWyjbR5
Stitch headed back to the lounge to see that Muffins had returned.
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH4bq44AZmS
"Muffins, can I talk to you?" Stitch asked. "In private?"
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRAvQnJfmQm
"Uh, sure" Muffins followed him into the hallway.
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaOW6AptDPu
"Cherry and I have chlamydia" Stitch whispered.
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbABQoIbOdw
"Okay..." Muffins was confused.
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXyRBIpC3nF
"Cherry must have gotten it from you" Stitch said. "The two of us need to get tested. Now"
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZcuXpmOqxZ
"From your first sentence, it sounds like you already knew that you have it" Muffins said.
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxc7ZdzgVtX
"I mean I'm pretty sure I do" Stitch replied, looking scared.
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡejhwzEAjov
"Shit" Muffins looked worried and started pacing around, holding his head between his hands. "Shit shit SHIT!"
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDLBCzjmztc
"What, what's wrong?" Stitch asked. "It's treatable, bro, we'll be fine. A week of antibiotics will clear it right up. And luckily Sully doesn't have it. I asked the nurse in private to test him, since he slept with Lemonade, which is obviously where it originated, but at least he was smart enough to use a condom with her"
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBVINrTgZsx
"I don't know, I'm just so stressed" Muffins said. "I need to stop doing coke"
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ7AXKCto18
"Sully is being transferred back to L-Town tomorrow" Stitch said. "Let's go now and the results will be back in a few hours"
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe0vPX610zx
"Fine" Muffins sighed, as he followed Stitch the other way to get tested.

Meanwhile, Cherry was allowed to go into Sully's room and wait for him to wake up. She was super anxious, pacing around back and forth. She looked over at the empty bed, with the sheets still messy, and felt guilty.
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqhOXQ5rLU5
Then she heard a weak voice speak her name.
"Cherry..."
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcrUV0bKw6N
She turned around.
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMrQ9Iad1UX
"Sully!" she exclaimed. "Do you know where you are?"
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGGlsExJVk4
"No..." Sully gave her a blank stare from his bruised up black eyes.
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoWzl8i5jvc
A nurse walked in. "Sully, you had an accident" she said gently.
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFIudzfyEQW
"Those mexicans..." Sully said weakly. "Cynthia's cousins... they hit me... beat me..."
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRkHb8yLMYF
"What?" Cherry asked. "Are you sure?"
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2bg49L5YLM
Sully tried to nod his head, but it hurt too much. He just groaned. "Their names were Lenny and Eddie" he struggled to say.
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8TvrMhokGW
"I'm calling the cops" Cherry said. "Excuse me"
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrOYxyc8C5I
She stepped into the hallway, and returned about five minutes later.
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtJpbln8SIe
"Sully, do you know their last names?" she asked, covering the mouthpiece.
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG5Wn1LqOkZ
"No" he said quietly. "It's not the same as Cynthia though"
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmUySdepbbp
Cherry stepped back in the hallway for a few minutes, and when she came back, she said "They're going to be on the lookout"
