Fiolee,This Could Work

Chapter 5 - The Wounded

Fiona Pov>

Fiona could feel herself drifting in and out of sleep. She could feel the cold bed even thought the heavy weight of the blankets surrounding her. Fiona felt a strange sort of comfort being in Marshall Lee's bed even thought she was never more vulnerable then she was right now. Fiona looked over to find Marshall asleep floating above the ground.

"What the hell? How does he do that?" Even thought she thought it was the coolest thing ever she was sure she would ever want to do it.

"Mar-Marshall." She managed to squeak out. Fiona realized thought hurt from the events of lat night.

Marshall crashed to the floor startled by Fiona. He looked over to her with in of his smirks and said,

"She lives." He was kidding, she hoped.

"Ya well i am not feeling the best but-" Fiona was cut off by Marshall putting a hand over her mouth gesturing for her not to speak.

Fiona nodded understanding.

"You need to relax I will explain everything soon."

He quickly went down to the kitchen and got her some strawberries an went back up stairs to his room. Marshall sat on his bed very close to Fiona gave her the strawberries. He started the story from the beginning.

~~

"Fi are you ok? I didn't want to make you upset are you ok?"

"Ya Marsh I think so..." Fiona said as she tailed off trying to recall the events from the past night.

"What- Why didn't you take me to the hospital?"

"Well," Marshall started off not sure of what to say, "I don't trust the doctors their they would have thought I had done that to you. I mean its easy to understand why they would think that thou..."

"But- but you wouldn't hurt me right?" Fiona asked him timidly slightly inching away from Marshal.
"Fi I would never want to hurt you. But I am a monster, sometimes I cant help it." Marshall said realizing that was not the right answer.

"No! Wait listen!" He added urgently as he could tell she was getting uncomfortable.

"That's not what I meant. All I am trying to say is that I am dangerous. Even thou I say that I would never hurt you."

"I dont know i mean you seemed to have gone all soft last night when I was hurt. How did u know what to do any way?"

"Well," Marshall started with a big smirk looking directly into her eyes. It was one of the smirks that could make her weak at the knees. Fiona loved and also hated it at the same time when he did that.

"When you have been around for as long as I have oh learn a few things. I am sure you will be fine don't worry" he added as he could feel her getting tense.

"But I don't want to move you to much. Especially the 1 1/2 mile walk to your house. So you are going to need to stay here for a few days. I already called Cake to let her know she said it was ok and that she would be way for the next week or two because I think her and Lord M are having kittens or something so she will be one for a while."

"Wait! What! CAKE IS HAVING KITTENS! DOES THAT MEAN SHE WON'T LIVE WITH ME ANYMORE WHAT THE GLOB!" Fiona was panicking now.

"Well when Cake and LM got together did you think she would stay with you forever? She will never be farther then the Candy Kingdom at the most it will be ok." Marshall told Fiona calmly.

"Well I don't know. Yes I guess cause I never really thought about it really." Fiona said. 

Marshall could tell she was drifting into a deep thought. He didn't realize it he was staring at her. Not because she was beautiful, he was but that's not why he was starring this time. He was starring because he loved the way her eyes flickered when she was thinking, and the rise and fall of her chest. and most of all how he could feel the warmth of her skin and the sound of her heart. That's what he missed from being human. A heart beat. Out of any that Marshall heard he like Fiona's the best. He was snapped out of this thought when he heard Fiona's voice.

"Marshall can you take me to the mirror I want to see it."

"Yeah sure Fi but if you start to feel dizzy tell me."

Marshall unwrapped the now old and worn blankets from around her still shivering body. His slipped one arm under her neck pretending not to notice the cold back f her neck and the other under her legs careful not to touch the still open cut. He slowly floated from the be a few feet too the mirror and set Fiona down so carefully as if she would shatter if he wasn't careful.

Fiona's knee's went weak almost the moment she was standing. She caught her self and was now holding on to Marshall's arm for support. Before she lifted the back of her shirt to see it Fiona looked at Marshall and timidly asked,

"How bad is it?"

"Nothing you cant handle." He said with a smirk.

Fiona slowly lifted the corner of the much too big band shirt to reveal a mark she had never seen before. It was like nothing before. The wound itself appeared to be bleeding but it was dry, it surprisingly didn't hurt to badly at the touch considering it was half and inch deep of open flesh. It was bigger then she thought about 3inches wide and started from the very bottle, of her back and went all the way to her mid back. she continued to then pull up the pant leg to see an identical wound on her thigh.

Marshall could see her studding them in extreme detail. 

"Fiona, I am going to bandage them now. I don't want it out in the open to long." Marshall said as he slowly helped her walk into the bathroom.

Once he got Fiona into the bathroom he sat her on the counter and started rummaging in the closet and draws looking for something to bandage it with. after about five minuets of looking he found gauze, rubbing alcohol, and a small wash towel. 

"Uh Fi I need you take off your shirt." He said completely preoccupied.

"NO. I AM NOT TAKING MY SHIRT OFF." Fiona said defensively. 

"Calm down, are you wearing a bra?" Marshall asked.

"Yes..."

"So take off your shirt and leave it on i will be working on your back any way it will be fine." 

"... Ok but don't stare."

"I wont." He said with a smirk.

Fiona quickly turned around and took off her shirt revealing her back too Marshall. As soon as she did so Marshall told her that it would sting but before she could ask what would sting she felt the terrible burning sensation coming from her back. Fiona wouldn't let herself cry out in pain she hed it in.

"Your doing assume Fi almost done,"  Marshall said as he stared wrapping the gauze around her entire mid section.

He threw her the shirt gesturing for her to put it back on as he was getting ready to do her leg. Fiona as not prepared for her back and she was determined to be strong this time around.

"I am gong to get a pair of shorts for you so it will be easier."

"Did Marshall even wear shorts?" she thought. "Have never seen him wear them. I wonder what his legs look like..." 

Marshall soon came back into the bathroom with a pair of much to big baggy shorts. He placed them on the counter next to Fiona and he went back t getting ready. Fiona was just starring at him waiting for him to leave so she could change. He saw her starring and blatantly stated,

"I am not leaving change right here." 

Fiona could tell she would never win that argument and very quickly, much more quickly then when she took her shirt off. Marshall them cleaned the wounded and the bandaged it so he could get Fi back to bed.

He carefully picked her up and drifted out of the bathroom and back into the bedroom. Marshall could feel her shivering, he knew that wasn't a good thing. He needed to find something for her and soon.

Fiona was already asleep before she had even touched the bed. Marshall wrapped her in the blankets and went sown stairs to figure out what he was going to do about her leg and back.
