FOURTH SHOT

Lee ––

I met with Joel. I don't know if you've met him, since he's hardly been here longer than I have, but he's my better half. We went out into the woods and waited it out so he could put me down, but I didn't turn. And when Joel wasn't watching me, I went down to the damn clinic, where the world's most terrified doctor hacked off the wound.

So now that my shoulder has roughly the same texture as raw hamburger, and it doesn't seem to be spreading, I can finally let you know that your advice was complete bullshit... but I appreciate it all the same.

We should get drinks. Proper ones, this time.

Hey, kid.

You've been here much longer than I have. Let me drill you for information and I'll make it worth your while. What do you say?

I- sure, I don't mind helping you out. Y- you don't have to owe me or anything. We're supposed to look out for each other, right?

[ He's a little late getting to this, but there's a humorless chuckle in his voice when he finally does. He could go for a drink. Right now, though - ]

Told you.

[ Alright. He's thirty-eight, but he's spent a lot of his time with kids lately, okay? Sue him. ]
