"Ow!" Wesley muttered under his breath. He was working in engineering and a pipe fell on his back. The pipe had been heated to about 175 degrees, making it burn through his red uniform and onto his back.

"Better get that checked out, Wes." Geordi said, glancing up from his work to see Wesley wincing as he walked.

"I'm fine. Permission to go back to my quarters and rest?" He asked, eyeing Geordi.

"Permission granted. Rest up Wes, that was a pretty hard hit and the pipe was hot." Geordi answered as Wes started to sulk away. Every step burned and felt like someone was taking hit knives and jabbing them into his back.

Painfully, he walked into his quarters to see you sitting in the bed reading. You look up, but don't see him in pain. Sluggishly, he walked over to the bed and collapsed.

"Hey Wes. What's up?" You say, glancing over. You notice his back and cringe. "What happened!"

"A pipe fell on my back. It was very hot." He muttered, gritting his teeth.

"I have burn cream if you want me to put it on?" You ask, trying to look at his face. It was hard, Wes was laying on his stomach, his face smashed into the bed.

"Sure." He answered, pulling off his shirt.

Wow. You though. He must really be in pain, he's letting me help him.

You went to the bathroom and returned with the cream. Wes was still laying in the bed.

You put some of the cream on his back, noting how hot his back was. He flinched and tensed up every time you touched him. When you finished, you washed your hands and laid next to him on the bed.

"How you feeling?" You ask, trying to see his face.

"I'm in pain" he muttered.

"I know, I'm sorry." You say, moving his face to kiss him. He skinned flushed of any color. He was completely pale.

"Can you stay with me for a while?" He asked.

"Of course." You whisper.
