Road Doc

Chapter 12

Theresa fumbled with the key in her hotel room door and finally succeeded in opening it. She stumbled in, barely making it to the bed before collapsing. She had had far too much to drink and was fading in and out of consciousness. She fumbled to get undressed and crawled into bed, thankful for the following day off from the busy tour schedule.

She didn’t hear the door, which she hadn’t gotten fully closed, open, nor the light footsteps drawing nearer and nearer to her bed. She wasn’t aware of anything until she awoke to find a body laying on top of her.

When he tried to kiss her, she thrashed her head from side to side and began pushing him away. She managed to get out from under him and immediately flew from the bed and turned on the lights.

“AJ!!!” She yelled. “What in the hell are you doing?” She was in shock to find him in her room.

“Just thought we’d continue where my little tradition left off” he said. His speech was slurred and he was obviously very drunk.

“Get out. Get out of here right now.” Theresa demanded.

AJ stood and nearly fell to the floor. Theresa pulled the sheets from the bed and covered herself, as he struggled to find his balance.

“Look....”

“No, you look” Theresa interrupted him. “Get out of here. Get out of here before you do something stupid. Just get out of here, now.”

AJ stumbled towards her.

“NOW AJ” Theresa said sternly.

AJ stumbled to the door and turned back towards her. Before walking out the door he said “It’s going to happen. You know it, I know it. It will happen”
