Brittany and Artie
Who: Artie and Brittany
When: January 6, Friday afternoon
Where: The school pool
What: Having recovered from his two broken legs "the normal way," Artie has his casts off, and he wants to go for a swim after six weeks of not being able to get his legs wet. Brittany notices he's been wearing the same weird blue bracelet for the past two months and wonders why.
He'd never used the kind of crutches you tucked under your armpits before, and he could already tell he was going to have sore pits from all this. Still, they were certainly better than the forearm kind. They looked temporary. He didn't think he looked disabled, using these. And it definitely beat the wheelchair. And those itchy casts! Gone at last! It had been slightly terrifying when the doctor had cut them both off earlier that day. Artie could feel the blade of the saw getting closer and closer to his skin. The friction made it so hot. All he could think about was how, back when his healing powers worked, Puck had urged him to saw off a body part and see if it would grow back. With the powers mysteriously gone, Artie didn't even want to think about it. Thankfully, the doc did know what he was doing.
A few hours later, he was meeting Brittany at the school's indoor swimming pool. The synchronized swimming team didn't practice on Friday. (It was the only club in school that was geekier than both AV Club, Academic Decathlon, and Glee Club.) He hobbled out of the boys' room and into the pool area, looking for Brittany.
