Incidental Injuries ( John B Routledge x Reader )

I made my way from my house to the chateau two blocks over with my cooler filled to the brim with snacks and drinks, a smile on my face and a bit of pep in my step, happy that I was going to hang out with my friends, that are my real family at this point, and to hang out with my boyfriend of 2 and half years John B. The sky was blue, the sun was shining, it was a beautiful day, if only I knew what a turn this day was going to take. I finally made it to the dock behind the chateau my smile widening upon seeing everyone helping to get the boat ready for a day of fun. "Hello wonderful people, I'm here now you guys can stop mourning my absence!" I called out jokingly. I watched as JB shot up from bending over looking at the motor with Pope. "Y/N BABY! Finally!" He cheered running up to me and lifting me and spinning us around. "Hi." I smiled at him giving him a kiss. "Hello beautiful." He smiled back setting me back on my feet. We both walked back to the boat climbing in. "Hey Pope, Hey JJ." I said waving at them as I climbed aboard. "Sup!" JJ shot back slightly tipping his hat and taking the cooler from me and setting it in the boat. "HI Y/n." Pope waved back. "Kie my bestie!" I giggled wrapping her in a hug as she hugged me back. "Y/n finally I'm not alone with these idiots anymore." She joked. "I am so sorry." I teased back. "Rude." Jb put a hand to his chest pretending to be offended. "You know you love us." JJ hollered. "Well maybe, Pope right Kie." I snorted. "Yes Pope gets a pass." Kie chuckled. "Unbelievable, truly, I'm wounded." JJ scoffed dramatically. "What about me?" JB asks, "JJ I understand but what did I do?" He fake pouts. "Absolutely nothing handsome, you're amazing." I smiled and kissed him. "EW gak ugh Enough, c'mon let's get this boat day started before I have to bleach my eyes out." JJ snickered. I playfully stuck out my tongue at him and held up my middle finger. Pope drove us out to our usual spot in the marsh, and from there, we swam, danced, fished, told stories, laughed, and made more memories. Once we were all tired, near sun burnt, had caught a fair amount of fish, and the sun was starting to set JJ was the first to exclaim he was tired and hungry and that he thought it was high time we headed back. The others and I agreed, John B going to the steering column of the HMS pogue and JJ going to the outboard motor. You see the way it worked was a sort of synchronized effort made possible by some slight Jerry rigging, one person had to turn the key on the steering column and the other had to pull the ripcord on the outboard at roughly the same time. I sat down at the back of the boat in a spot where I thought I was out of the way next to JJ his back to me Kie on my other side as she and I chatted about a beach clean up idea we were throwing about. When suddenly JJ gave a rather harsh yank of the ripcord, elbowing me right in the eye. "OOWAHGH SHHIITT! FUCK!" I yelled shooting out of my seat to get out of the way and losing my balance causing me to fall overboard backwards my head smacking against the side of the boat where I could feel the side of my forehead being sliced by something sticking off the boat. "Y/N BABY!?!!" Jb panicked leaping in after me and helping me back into the boat and pulling himself in behind me. Kie was quick to guide me to sit down holding a towel to my head to staunch the flow of blood. "Jesus y/n are you alright?" Pope asked handing me a water bottle as JB sat on my other side trying to look at my forehead as Kie batted him away. "I will be eventually." I supposed. "Y/n shit I am so so sorry." JJ said apologizing profusely. "JJ it's okay, I'm fine, or at least I will be, I'm not mad it was an accident could've been any one of us, honestly I probably shouldn't have been sitting there anyways." I reassured him. "JB stop, from what I saw y/n needs stitches but until then we need to keep the towel in place." Kie reprimanded Jb as he tried to lift the towel. "Ok ok, uh babe hospital?" Jb asked rubbing my back. "I'd rather not, JJ is your cousin Ricky available to lend a hand perhaps?" I asked the blonde. "Totally, let's go who's driving?" He asked nodding his head. "Can you get us back without taking anyone else out Jj?" JB asked. "Yep, absolutely." He answered. "Ok then let's get back to the chateau and then we can take the Twinkie." Jb instructed still comforting me, he took over holding the towel to my head from Kie as I leaned against him. JJ quickly got us to the chateau he and Kie quickly securing the boat, Pope running the coolers inside the chateau and Jb scooping me up and sprinting me to the Twinkie. Once everyone else piled in and buckled up Jb drove us to Ricky's. JJ tore open the Twinkie door practically falling out and stumbling up to the front door, "Yo Ricky it's JJ, one of my friends is hurt, it was kind of my fault, she needs stitches please." He banged on the door. JB scooped me up yet again carrying me up to the door standing with me beside JJ, Pope and Kie standing behind us. Ricky yanked open the door ushering us inside instructing John B to set me on the couch as he dragged a chair up beside me and a large duffle I assumed was his med kit. "So Somebody want to tell me what happened here or?" Ricky asked as he pulled on gloves and started assessing my gash and rapidly darkening black eye. Well we were out on the boat and she was sitting behind JJ as he was pulling the ripcord to start the boat so we could go back and JJ accidentally elbowed her in the face to which she jumped up from where she was sitting to I assume get out of the way and lost her balance falling overboard and slicing her head on the boat." Pope explained. "Ah so a series of unfortunate events then huh?" Ricky nodded pulling out some items from his kit arranging them. "So first I'm going to use a local anesthetic to numb the area then I'll clean, stitch and bandage you, sound good y/n?" Ricky explained. "Mmhm." I gulped grabbing John B's hand I don't like needles and he knows that. "It's alright baby, I gotcha, I'm right here, you can squeeze my hand the whole time, then we'll have whatever you want for dinner and there's ice cream in the freezer at the chateau. You got this sweet girl just look at me, eyes on me the whole time." John B soothed rubbing the back of my hand with his thumb and using his other hand to caress my cheek. "Hey man since you've got your hand on her cheek already, you mind gently holding her chin still?" Ricky asked as I felt him wipe an alcohol pad above the cut where he was going to give me the anesthetic. "Sure, I can do that, eyes on me y/n, eyes on me baby." Jb gently coached as he could see Ricky bringing the local anesthetic shot to my head. I closed my eyes and stuffed my face partly into JB's chest, as Ricky had my head turned with the cut side up, and he was leaning over me from the head of the couch coming at me from above. I whimpered a little as I felt the shot go in. "Hey pretty girl, you're doing great." Jb soothed. "You've got this y/n the hard part is over." Kie comforted as I felt a pat on my knee and I brought my face out from Jb's chest. "Thanks." I whispered keeping my gaze on JB and into his eyes trying to distract myself with my boyfriends handsomeness and wondering how I got so lucky. "Just a few more here then I'll bandage it up you're being a great patient." Ricky spoke as he finished up the stitches. "Does that mean I get a lollipop afterwards?" I joked to lighten the mood. Everybody chuckled. In the end I got 7 stitches and then Ricky put an antibiotic cream then a gauze pad, then secured it to my forehead with tape. "Alright girly, you're done, just keep it clean, try not to get it wet, I'mma send some extra bandages, cream, and tape with your lover boy here remember to change it every other day got it?" He asked handing a stack of sealed bandages, a roll of tape and about 4 packets of antibiotic cream to JB who put them in his pocket. "Got it Ricky and thank you." I said. "You also should probably ice that shiner." He reminded. "Will do, can we go home now?" I asked. JB smiled warmly at me calling the chateau home. "Of course babe any dinner requests?" Jb asked as he helped me up and out the door to the Twinkie the others following. "Um anybody else up for pizza, my treat?" I asked. Cheers went up in agreement. So JB drove us back to the chateau as Kie ordered pizza for delivery. Jb helped me inside, bringing us into his room to change and clean up a bit before we joined everyone back in the living room, him sitting on the couch then gently pulling me down and guiding me so I was resting my head in his lap. "Here ya go y/n an ice pack for your head, and again I'm really really sorry." JJ apologized again handing me an ice pack wrapped in a towel. "JJ stop apologizing I'm fine, we're all fine, it was an accident bubs it's all good." I smiled before sitting up slightly to peck a light friendly kiss to his cheek to show him I wasn't mad. "OK good. You and JB just stay there I'll bring you your pizza." JJ smiled. "Ok." I agreed laying my head back down on JB's lap. "Thanks for jumping in after me, my hero." I thanked Jb nuzzling into his hand as he stroked my hair. "you're welcome, you'd have done the same for me sweet girl, I'm proud of you, you handled the stitches like a pro, you did so good." He soothed smiling warmly at me. "Thanks, though I don't think I would've been able to do that if you weren't there holding me, reassuring and coaching me. It helped immensely." I admitted blushing slightly. "Awh baby, I'll always be here for you, just like how you'll always be here for me." He kissed me. "For as long as you'll have me." I smiled up at him. "Well I know I'll never get tired of you so you're stuck with me." He playfully stuck his tongue out at me. "There's no one else I'd rather be with." I answered. Finally the pizza arrived and we all dug in until we were all full, Pope then suggested a movie night to which we all agreed to, picking a movie and getting comfortable. I only lasted a quarter of the way through the movie before I was drifting off in John B's arms the exhaustion from today's events washing over me. " I love you my sweet girl, sleep tight." Jb whispered so only I could hear. " I love you too handsome, hope you sleep well too, just wake me when the movie is over so I can get in bed." I whispered back. "I'll just carry you, and I always sleep well when you're here and in my arms." Jb whispered back. "I sleep better in your arms too." I admitted finally letting sleep overcome me feeling safe here with my real family, with John B knowing we'll protect each other and won't ever let anything happen to each other.
