It's been around three weeks since the last Union meeting, and Wolf can't be anymore glad that it was over. Although, unfortunately for him, something had come up that resulted for their next meeting to be held in advance, which means the monthly meet up is coming sooner than he would've liked. Just thinking about staying in a room with Jake Ji and the others pisses him off.

As he was deep in thought, he had failed to notice a person coming towards his way, making them bump into each other.

Wolf looked at the person in front of him with a deep frown on his face. But when he finally saw the person, his frown slightly faltered.

(E/c) eyes looked into his gray ones in shock, “Oh, it's you again!”

The purple haired teen stared blankly at the person before nodding absentmindedly, “Yeah.” He muttered.

[name] smiled at him, “How's your fists?”

“It's healed.” Wolf said, lazily raising one of his arms and showing it to them, "there's no scars. I guess your little first aid helped."

“That's good to hear!” They grinned, scanning his now wound-free hand with sparkling eyes. Wolf silently watched as the oddly sociable teen checked for any scars.

“Hmm.. you're right, there are no scars.”

“I guess you did a pretty good job patching it up, doc.” Wolf said absentmindedly, freezing once he realised what he said before internally cringing at himself.

did I really just say that? What the fuck–

[name] chuckled, shaking their head with a grin on their face, “You think so? Thanks!” They said cheerfully.

A few seconds passed in complete silence and Wolf was beginning to get pissed with how awkward he was feeling. In an attempt to clear the atmosphere, he blurted out the first thing that he came up with without second thoughts, “Yeah, it would be great to have you patch me up whenever I get into fights.”

“Huh?” They blinked in surprise and confusion.

Shit.

Uhh... Maybe he should say something to make it less awkward...? Yeah, that's it!

“I mean, you said you'll be taking the medical field so wouldn't it be great to have some experience?” Wolf added, his eyebrows knitting together as he tried not to sound awkward. [name] just stared at him with an expression he can't quite describe.

Fuck, why did he say that? Just how awkward can this conversation get? Why does he keep adding things that make this even weirder?! Wolf doesn't know what the hell he was saying at this point.

They probably think that he's trying to hit on them–

“That actually sounds like a good idea.”

And there it goes... wait what?

“Huh?” It was his turn to be perplexed. Did he hear that right? They agreed to his dumb idea just like that?

“Well, I mean, you're kinda right. I was actually planning on working part-time in a vet to get an idea of what I'm going to deal with in the future. Patching you up doesn't sound that bad.” [name] said casually, shrugging their shoulders in a nonchalant manner.

“You sure?” Wolf asked, raising an eyebrow in shock at how calm they seemed. He was not expecting them to not be weirded out. Their reaction was totally different from what he had expected.

“Uh-huh. It would be beneficial for both of us, don't you think? You get a cutman while I get a test subject.”

“Test subject?–”

“Anyway! It's actually going to help me so I don't see why not. We can also stop our transactions whenever you'd like.” The teen said, reaching out a hand towards Wolf with a smile on their face,

“So, what do you say?”
