TITLE: How to cover a fat lip?
CHARACTERS: Jess Grissom and Nick Stokes
RATING: PG13
SUMMARY: For the first time in a month she got a call about her father. So what did she get when she stepped in one of his ‘fights’ to stop him from getting hurt?
OPEN/CLOSED: Closed
STATUS: incomplete
Jess felt like the walking dead as she entered work. She kept her head low and was hanging out for caffeine to try and stay awake. The previous night was another late one; no she wasn’t the party type; she worked double shift and as she was settling at home for the night she received a call from Joe the bar. She knew what it was about the moment he said his name. Her father had been drinking away at the bar for hours and he was picking fights with fellow drinkers who no doubt would make her father second best. She managed to get to locker room without anyone seeing her and opened her locker taking out a small mirror; analysing how her lip had changed in the last few hours, she cringed; worse than she thought.
She hesitated but then lifted her hand to touch her now fat lip; but her lip quickly rejected the gentle finger and she sighed. No matter what she tried; how much make up, she wouldn’t be able to cover it. Those labs could wait for her for a few moments longer as she tried to think up of an excuse for the fat lip; the only the was that she was a terrible liar; nobody would believe her. And... She also needed to wake up.
