A Dangerous Cure (scp-049 fic)

Chap7

I wonder whats under that mask......Shit I wonder if he will let me touch it.

"Helloo? Earth to T."

I shook my head snapping back to reality. "Oh sorry spaced out for minute."

Paults chuckled."Yeah I-I see that. A-are you ready?"

I nodded allowing the guard to put on my restraints. I tried my best to keep a straight face and not show that I was actually excited to see him. I had questions for him that were left unanswered from our first meeting. I was lead back to the same interview room as last time. I looked at Paults who gave a slight smile I could tell this was bothering him again. The guards undid my restraints and I walked into the empty room. I raised an eyebrow where was he did they come and get me first this time. I took my seat my back facing the glass not maybe 10mins passed when I heard the locks on the door being turned and it opened. I turned slightly to see the guards escorting him with the neck restraint. I could tell by the way he slightly swayed something was wrong. He sat down his head tilted downward as they removed the collar and shackles. Once he was restraint free the guards made a B line for the door locking it behind them. I stared at him a bit nervous As I cleared my throat. "Hey....are you ok?"
No answer great what was I supposed to do now. I watched him carefully as I slowly got out of my chair making my way to his side. He was still swaying and I would feel pretty bad If I let him...or whatever they were to fall flat on their ass. The closer I got to him my flight or fight instinct kicked in as if my body just knew he was danger. I crouched down beside him placing a hand gently on his shoulder to steady him. I didn't say anything I simply stayed there starring at him taking in his features. I could now tell that mask could be removed and I could see the pale skin that hid behind it. I shallowed hard how tempting it was to try and remove his mask to see what was on the other side. My thoughts went wild at all the possibilities that were hidden from sight.

"My, my you are a brave one aren't you."

My jaw fell slack in shock as my body jolted. I could feel myself losing my balance as my free hand quickly grabbed the table. My embarrassment was pretty obvious and I had to rectify this situation."I'msorryyouwereswayingandIdidntWantyoutofall."

Smooth real smooth.

The Doctor starred at me as if he was looking for something then I realized what he was looking at, the bruise. "Ok well as long as you're fine now I'm gonna go sit back down." I went to stand back up when a gloved hand gently caught my chin. He continued to stare at the bruise before bringing his attention back to me.

"My lady, I appreciate the concern for my well being but I assure you I am fine."

I nodded standing up his hand returning to his lap. At the moment I wasn't sure if my legs would work properly. I walked back to my chair getting my nerves back into check. I smiled to myself Poor Paults is probably having cats right now. We sat across from each other in silence for a moment or so before he spoke.

"Tell me my lady what savage did this."

I shrugged,"Just a D class thug. He messed with me while I was eating and I popped off to him. So he slammed my my head into the table."

"That is no way to treat a lady."

"Thats what happens when you're surrounded by convicts. I'm ok though just my battle bruise. So changing the subject how have you been since our last meeting?"

For a moment the room was silent again except for the soft buzz from the lights above. It was starting to make me nervous but hell I was trying to push this awkward conversation forward especially if they wanted us to continue these things. Thats when he chuckled tilting his head to the side.
