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.
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwSSKEWZ7KA
"He promised me cocaine!" Cherry said, and Quaker sighed.

A few hours later, Cherry found out that she had chlamydia.
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmrdUeunt2C
"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"
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIyvPR7oXjY
"Sully and Ringo had sex with her, too..." Strawberry pointed out.
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvcgfcaK9U7
"Not unprotected" Cherry tried to hold back the tears.
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAjIRlFKzku
"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"
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCe6wAOYpCW
Cherry sighed, as they headed back up to Sully's room.
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvKrVkRfoKU
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.
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJAofOANEvp
"I- I have chlamydia" Cherry whispered. "I got it from Muffins. You might wanna, you know, get tested. They gave me antibiotics"
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyD9edHsJps
"Oh, wow" Stitch said. "Tha- Thanks for letting me know. Does Muffins know?"
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC87E5lxMob
"Not yet," Cherry said. "Where is he?"
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYhsVjWmY6m
"He ran to the store to get cigs" Stitch said. "I can tell him when he comes back up if you'd like"
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSwNsmUOUtm
"Thanks, Stitch" Cherry said.
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoObuHSoRt5
They half hugged, awkwardly, and walked back to the lounge.
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxN0NT8yy74
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"
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡndHVDRe0XF
"Oh my god, that's wonderful!" Cherry jumped up and hugged the nurse.
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJrR4xKOjMI
"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"
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb79vcq7DUV
"Um, sure" the nurse looked at him side eyed.
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD3qLDDrbWM
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPVRWwVsyCz
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"
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4buLSSbuHd
"You're the best" Stitch smiled, passing her 5 dollars.
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgyo5CNYJ1y
The nurse looked at him strangely and walked away.
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡduTlQmoJTc
Stitch headed back to the lounge to see that Muffins had returned.
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0WToJQrke6
"Muffins, can I talk to you?" Stitch asked. "In private?"
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV5aSAmIBVy
"Uh, sure" Muffins followed him into the hallway.
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBmiCk1nHPv
"Cherry and I have chlamydia" Stitch whispered.
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6HbpeVXqvq
"Okay..." Muffins was confused.
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwvMsb5YTmq
"Cherry must have gotten it from you" Stitch said. "The two of us need to get tested. Now"
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrSaGHM3bet
"From your first sentence, it sounds like you already knew that you have it" Muffins said.
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1r267zuqqB
"I mean I'm pretty sure I do" Stitch replied, looking scared.
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYUSsAhVuuA
"Shit" Muffins looked worried and started pacing around, holding his head between his hands. "Shit shit SHIT!"
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKWyQAyBuqL
"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"
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGsFhucYJWL
"I don't know, I'm just so stressed" Muffins said. "I need to stop doing coke"
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg3HwPsXfx9
"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"
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO2D8cBV7vH
"Fine" Muffins sighed, as he followed Stitch the other way to get tested.
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOX79doARrC

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.
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxxJ0kXDNNV
Then she heard a weak voice speak her name.
"Cherry..."
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfSkefy0l3k
She turned around.
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDWcWZv0KX5
"Sully!" she exclaimed. "Do you know where you are?"
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeh4ht7975A
"No..." Sully gave her a blank stare from his bruised up black eyes.
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNh7E8HVsvP
A nurse walked in. "Sully, you had an accident" she said gently.
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrwMAdw2U21
"Those mexicans..." Sully said weakly. "Cynthia's cousins... they hit me... beat me..."
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbQqs4cP50U
"What?" Cherry asked. "Are you sure?"
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRGarsespXC
Sully tried to nod his head, but it hurt too much. He just groaned. "Their names were Lenny and Eddie" he struggled to say.
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvP6kgqmkll
"I'm calling the cops" Cherry said. "Excuse me"
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqq4kTAHKqx
She stepped into the hallway, and returned about five minutes later.
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlTTftG6cZK
"Sully, do you know their last names?" she asked, covering the mouthpiece.
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxgD4kOPfZb
"No" he said quietly. "It's not the same as Cynthia though"
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbmtxp4vLdu
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"
