"I will be right back. Wait here" Five said before blinking away.

He came back a minute later with a bowl that was filled with water and a rag that was hanging on the edge of the bowl.

"You know that they have showers, right?" you asked "It's for your nose" he said before he sat down next to you and you turned your head so you were looking at him.

He dipped the rag in the water before he started wiping the dried blood underneath your nose.

"Sorry" he said "It's okay" you said "No it's not, it's my fault" he said before he looked down.

"I should have being able to protect you, I should..." he said but then you grabbed his hand "It's not your fault, okay. We came out alive. I'm okay, Jamie is okay, we're okay" you said and the two of you looked at each other "And is also not the first time we got our asses kicked" you said and you both chuckled as he continued wiping the blood off.

When he was done, you grabbed the rag before you lifted it closer to his cut where a line of dried blood was underneath it.

But he grabbed your wrist "You don't need to" he said "Yeah I do. It got to be cleaned so your brain isn't going to fall out of that cut" you said "It's not that bad. It's just a little gash" he said "I'll be the judge of that and I'm saying it is. So I still need to clean it to make sure it don't get infected" you said "It's fine, Love" he said "Keep saying is fine and I will punch you" you said "You know your threats don't work on me Darling, they never had" he said "Never say never, Loverboy. 'Cause as I remember, they had work" you said "It was only because you actually did it" he said "Well, I had still threated you and then did it after" you said "Well the cut is fine" he said "If you don't let me clean it, there will be no cuddling and make out session for a month and you will sleep on the floor" you said and his eyes widened.

You and Five loved cuddling and you did it every day, so take it away would hurt. It actually worse than getting punch by you.

"Alright" he said with a nod before he let go of your wrist and you started cleaning his cut.

When you threatened with those kind of things, he always yield.

"See, told you my threat would work" you said "That's because taking away those things is worse than you punching me" he said and you chuckled.

While you were cleaning his cut, he was looking at you as pieces of his dark brown hair that fell over the right side of his forehead, right above his eye and was hitting his nose.

"You know, I think you need a haircut" you said before you put the rag by the bowl again "Will you do it?" he asked "Of course" you said and you then got up before quickly finding a scissor in one of the draws while Five sat down on a chair.
