Katelyns. POV

I stood still for a few moments as I watched Travis' retreating figure walk away from me, even after he'd left I still didn't move consumed by my own thoughts.

After a while my thoughts all became a blur and the next thing I remember was finding myself in a position,facing the wall, with my fist stuck in a hole, in the wall... After realising what I'd just allowed myself to do, I felt the pain shoot up my arm and I let out a hiss as I pulled my bloody fist away from the wall.

I went over to my sleeping bag and sat down holding my injured hand, when I inspected it, I must admit it wasn't a pretty sight. I had a massive cut down the middle and my knuckles were definitely going to have a bruise. Did I mention it was covered in blood?

I groaned after examining my hand before I started rummaging in my bag looking for bandages when I felt something small and metallic, I pulled it out and relief flooded me when I held my pendant in my hand.

I was disturbed by the sound of several things been dropped on the ground and I hurriedly stuffed my locket into my pocket before facing a panicked Travis.

"Katelyn?! What happened?!" He screeched

I groaned as he ran over and fell on his knees as he took my "injured" hand into his and expected it.

"By Enki! Katelyn what--"

"It's nothing Travis... it's not as bad as it looks!" I said trying to pry him off

"Nothing?! Katelyn have you seen the state of your hand? There's blood everywhere!" He screeched once again

"Hands generally bleed alot!" I tried to defend

He gave me a look of worry that quickly turned to anger.

"Katelyn who did this to you?!" He yelled

I watched as it was his turn to become tense, I subconsciously took the opportunity to once again "inspect" his figure, he may no have had the proper training, but he had the strong body of a well trained guard. I watched as his muscles tensed as he tried to figure out why my hand was a bloody mess.

In the short time I had, I was so tempted, somewhere in the process my gaze had found it's way back up to his face where his piercing green eyes were drilling a hole into my face in "determination" I think.

"Katelyn" He growled "Who. Did. This?!"

I rolled my eyes before pulling the bandages out of my bag and shooing his hands away from mine so I could "try" and sort the bloody mess out.

"No one did this to me Travis, it was my own stupidity and anger getting in the way. Why do you care anyway?"

He took the bandages from my struggling non injured hand and got his leather water bottle out that he used to dampen a cloth and then started dabbing at the wound.

"You know why--

I disturbed his sentence by hissing in pain.

"Sorry... You know why I care" He finished his sentence.

"Right... the whole, you really liking me thing..."

He nodded. "What exactly did you do to cause this much... damage, to you hand. If you don't mind me asking..."

I sighed, flinching a little as the cloth touched the cut "Surely you know I have a habit of punching things."

"That I do... Wait..." He spun around and I clearly saw his eyes widen at the sight of the hole in the wall. Causing me to burst into laughter.

"You..."

"Punched the wall?" I finished for him, with a grin making its way onto my face.

He raised his eyebrows but kept his gaze on my wound that he'd managed to clean up quite quickly, except for the cut that was still bleeding.

He reached for the bandages beside him and stretched a piece out, He looked up at me, giving me the signal to raise my hand up from his lap and he proceeded to wrap the bandage reasonably tight, around my hand.

In not to long with a couple of hiss' from me and couple of sorrys muttered from Travis he had managed to do a rather good job of wrapping my hand up.

I inspected the bandage and nodded in approval while Travis stood up and walked over to the wall I'd made a hole in, he stroked, to see that he wasn't imagining it before turning his gaze towards me.

"You know you're gonna be the reason this house falls down" He remarked with a small smirk, his words causing m to burst into laughter.
