My Favourite Flavour (Official Story)

Chapter 45

“You're bleeding!” He panicked while staring the pillows underneath her which were now damped in heavy blood when she slowly opened her eyes and got up holding both of her forearms. Marquis looked towards the blood that was leaving the wounds which were almost covered by the bandages over her forearm when he panicked all of a sudden and rushed to search the first aid kit whereas she just watched his every reaction, thinking as to why he was suddenly worried like that? When her eyes were glued towards his worriedly panicking and running figure in the whole room. He gently lifted her feeble body and later made her sit. “Come here. Get up.” She hissed frequently while feeling the pain as tears were on their way to come out but she prevented them. “Wait.”

He stood up and went towards the direction of the restroom and later came back with a small towel, damped in hot water. Marquis sat beside her and ignored the stained sheet when he opened the kit and searched for the medicine to apply on the wounds while her hands covered them. He dipped the cotton in the liquid medicine which he already excluded into a glass bowl present besides the table already, when he just touched the wound and she jumped while squinting her eyes and grabbed the sheets tightly.

“Mar-Marquis, I-I'll do it. Plea-” With her quivering lips that she tried talking to him but the pain was so dying for her to inhale.

“Yeah. I saw how you did that. Let me do it.” Marquis strictly told while interrupting her sentence. He gently rubbed the cotton over the wound on her one forearm when she kept her eyes squinted tightly and he saw her reaction as while feeling equal pain in his chest that he wiped off the blood and cleaned up the wound as dealing with wounds has always been his thing when he always got to deal with gunshots. Marquis squeezed the warm towel and was about to rub it over her arm but stopped in between when he tilted his head at her while holding out his hand as later that he admitted. “Here. Press it if you feel the pain.” He tried to help her out when after few minutes, both of her small hands wrapped his big one and he smiled softly when he slightly started to rub the wound. She squealed his fingers with whimpers and he doesn't minded at all when he allowed her to do that as Marquis gently rubbed the towel and later cleaned the wound. It hurt him. Really hurt him, when he observed how deep it went. The skin was all ruptured. Her skin. Her flower petal skin was destroyed because of his rough nails. His stare turned soft. She released his hand and he smiled towards her when he put the cotton bud which was dipped in the liquid medicine, upon her wound, resulting her to squint her eyes tightly with her lips pressed together as she grabbed on to the sheets. Marquis saw her gripping tight upon the sheets when later that he simply yet gently held her hand and conveyed sweetly yet politely when he placed her hand upon his own thigh. “I've told you earlier that, when I'm near? Don't grab the sheets.” He later pursued doing the process and had the gauze wrapped around her arm. He then made her turn as her another forearm (another wound) was in front of his eyes when he repeated the same process over it. Right after he took the initiative step and the medicine came in contact with the wound, she suddenly clutched onto his black ripped jeans, so tightly and Marquis didn't even bother as if he was ready for it already. He completed the process and started collecting the things as later that he sighed in disbelief with his head low. “You don't even know how to deal with wounds. Pathetic. I don't understand what kind of girl are you?”

She stared him with her eyes holding a feeling in them eventually when after dropping her head that she declared with almost in inaudible voice, to which that he raised his head. “The girl you never met before.”

“True.” He muttered. He put the box aside and held her shivering iced hand, staring in those beautiful pair of heavenly eyes that he never noticed. She smiled but sadly and that made him confused to hell when he sighed once again while dropping his shoulders along with his head but he still had those pretty little hands between his own as later while stroking his hair that he said something but got interrupted right after at the same time. “I'm sorry.”
