It was late when I was done with the butterfly and Ethan still hasn't made an appearance yet.

It's starting to get late maybe I should leave a note thanking him then head home.

Just as I was about to get up to find a quill and paper the door swung open to reveal Ethan looking like he was in a bad fight and lost.

"Uhh, welcome home," I said nervously. "Do you want any help?"

"Yeah," his voice sounded raspy and scratchy. "That would be nice."

ETHAN POV

I had to be at work a little longer than I would have liked since William gave me 5,000 more tasks to do before I left. When I walked in I was happy to see my love still here.

God, I bet she was so lonely.

She helped me to my bathroom and also helped me take my armor off but had a hard time since it was a little heavy.

"Here let me get that since it's kinda heavy," I said while taking it from her

"Here let me get that since it's kinda heavy," I said while taking it from her. "I don't want you to hurt yourself."

"It's not 'kinda' heavy, IT IS HEAVY!" she yelled at me while I put it up on its stand.

I wish I wasn't wearing anything under my armor! Her face would have been so cute.

"Can you manage the rest since I have to get home?" she asked as she pointed to the door.

I couldn't believe she wanted to leave me, I had to think of something.

"No," I said in a deadpan voice. "I hurt my shoulders and can't lift them."

"Oh, do you want me to stay a little longer?" she asked in a worried voice.

"Yeah," I said with a smile. "Sit on the toilet."

"Why?" she asked while I turned the water on and let the tub fill up with water.

"I'm going to need your help taking my clothes off and bathing me," I said while turning off the water once it was at a decent amount. "You were the one who asked if I needed help, were you not?"
