Chapter 37: Ilyttmats

Anika

It's been a few days since the hospital and I can finally walk like a normal person again. Yay me *internal sigh*

The Dr. Crawford gave me ointment that I need to put on everyday... but that's kinda of hard if I can't reach half of the places. Hana usually did it but she was away today. So it was just me and Minho. I didn't mind that. We haven't had real alone time in a while.

"Hey, Minho?" I said softly, knocking on his door. I heard a loud thud before the door was ripped open. His hair was messy and he looked like he had just woken up. "I didn't wake you, did I?" I asked.

"What, no. Of course not," He said but I couldn't help but narrow my eyes as if he were lying. "Okay, maybe but that doesn't matter. How can I help you?"

"Uhm, do you think you could uh... help me with the ointment? I can't reach my back..." He didn't say anything for a while. "You don't have to." I almost yelled but he picked me up by my legs before carrying me to my bed.

"Of course. You don't even have to ask!" He chuckled and I handed him the ointment. "I'll make sure to kiss you better before I add the ointment," He exclaimed and kissed all over my face.

"I already feel better," I laughed.

"That's good. Now let me treat my lady," He said. I hesitated for a second and I knew he could tell. I guess I just wasn't used to people other than Hana and Dr. Crawford seeing the scars on my back. "It'll be alright. I promise," He whispered.

I nodded before sliding my shirt over my head. I nearly winced when the cold air blew against my back. And yes, I am wearing a sports bra. I'm not half naked. I will have to take it off if he wants to put the ointment all over the scars...

"You don't have to take it off if you're not comfortable," He whispered.

"No, no it's okay. The ointment needs to go on all of the scars," I said before unclasping the back. I moved the things that connect to each other but I still kept the sports bra on.

I feel the warmth of his hands even though they're not touching by back and I feel his breath hit my back as well.

"I need you to relax, okay?" He said and I took a deep breath in and out. I felt the softness of his lips press all along the scars before the coldness of the ointment.

I winced slightly and he pulled his hand back.

"Are you okay?" He asked.

"Mhm. It's just cold," I mumbled.

"Are you sure?" He asked again.

"Yeah, yeah I'm okay," I said again before I felt the coldness of the ointment mixed with the warmth of his hand on my back again.

About 3 minutes later Minho had finished rubbing the ointment on my back and now we were lying on his bed. I was lying on top of him because well I can't really lie on my back.

"How do you feel?" He asked.

"Better now that I'm with you," I murmured which was followed by a yawn.

"Tired?" He asked.

"A little."

"Sleep. I'll watch over you," He chuckled.

"You sure?" I asked.

"Yes, I'm sure."

"Alright. But you need sleep too," I murmured before starting to drift off to sleep.

"Sleep tight, love," He whispered. "I love you to the Moon and to Saturn."
