Chapter 129

Jesse took her into the bathroom and she held onto the counter until he left. She maneuvered herself so that she could push the shorts and underwear down and slowly turn so she could sit down. This was harder than it looked with just the counter for support. When she finished, she found it was too hard to get up by pulling onto the counter. She called out for Mark, embarrassed by what was happening. She'd be glad to get rid of this stupid cast.

Mark didn't say a word. He put his arms around her waist and pulled her up. She pulled her clothes up and he maneuvered her to the sink. He turned her in his arms so she could wash her hands. She couldn't look at him. It was just too embarrassing.

"You don't have to be embarrassed. I'm here for you no matter what you need," Jesse whispered into her ear.
