Sun rays leaked in through the parted curtain in Drew's living room. Her body curled up, nestled against the back of the couch. A red fluffy blanket dripped over her with her fingers peaking out. She looked quiet peaceful in her sleep, her face soft and a warm smile pulling at her lips. A yawn leaped from her mouth, her body stretching to relieve the tiredness. It was about three in the afternoon, her eyes opened wearily as she held in her phone in her hand. "Damn.." The word rolled off her lips, her sock covered feet touching the floor as she went to get up.
It had been a mid-day shift at the library, her nap had lasted a little over two hours. Drew quietly moved through the empty house, making her way from the laundry room to the bathroom. The shower head rinsed her body with warm water as her hands weaved the shampoo through her hair. It was as if she was getting ready for work, but that wasn't the case. Drew always felt better taken a shower after a long nap.
She hummed quietly to herself as she quietly dried herself off. It wasn't long before she had on a pair of shorts and a t-shirt. Drew found her way to the kitchen grabbing an apple and heading toward the front door. The air was cool against her wet hair, the laziness getting the better of her. Dark eyes scanned the street around her as her teeth took a bite out of the apple. She had no plans for the day, work was over, and she wasn't in the mood for much, but knew she had to go pick up a few things for the house.
Tossing the apple away, Drew climbed into her car, putting it in reverse. Her hand messed with the radio as she started down the street, making a turn to get onto the main street. Usually, she was a very watchful driver. Her eyes always on the road, but they missed the left turn light turn yellow and the teenager who stomped on the gas as soon as his light turned green. His truck bent the passenger side of her car around the grill. His front air bags blew up like marshmallows while she looked like she was buried in them. They weren't the only cars, a few on each side had tried to weave around only making it worse.
Drew's head rested against the steering wheel, her arms hanging to the floor with cuts and scratched from the broken glass. Her head a large gash with blood dripping down her face. She groaned in pain, unable to move. Every once and awhile a patch of what looked like rug burn started to burn. Police sirens and an ambulance could be heard off in the distant.
