Escape (Keith X OC)

Chapter 19

  

    Afterwards, Keith was looking at Tera as he saw her in the hall. She was in the middle of stretching her arms, but Keith grabbed her wrist, "What are you doing out here? I bet you're still hurt. You should go to the infirmary." She patted his face, "Look who's talking." He pouted and looked away, "I'm fine, it's you that needs worrying." Tera lead him to the infirmary, "Yeah, no, I'm pretty sure you should get your handsome, little face checked out. You have a cut on your cheek and I did that. So, seeI'll help you clean it up or I won't be able to sleep at night." Keith's eyes widened at her comment and began to get a pinkish glow on his face.

   They made it to the infirmary and Tera sat Keith down on the chair that was in room. He slumped his shoulders back and crossed his arms, watching Tera look for the medicine. "Do you know where everything is in here?", he asked. She laughed, "Yeah, you'd think I'd know since I've been in here so much, huh? But no, not really. Usually, Coran is in here and he gets all the medicine and stuff." He got up and chose to help look around the cabinets and drawers. Keith heard a weird noise and turned around to see Tera wobbling on a stool saying, "I think I see something over here-", he ran over to where she was balancing.

    "Be careful or we're going to need to find a stitching kit, too!", he yelled. Keith placed his hands on Tera's hips to make sure she didn't fall, "I don't think you realize just how clumsy you are." She tried to defend herself, "Pfft, what are you talking about? When have I shown that I was clumsy?" He laughed, "Fine, you want me to let go?" She looked down and saw how high up she was, "No, no, don't do that, please." She finally found some alcohol, fresh bandages and cloth, "I got everything. I'll pass it down to you." Keith placed everything at a near by table quickly. He then helped Tera down the hazardous stool.

   Tera asked, "Okay, bend down a bit, you're too tall for me to reach your face." He rolled his eyes and half smiled, "Is this good?" She nodded and giggled, "Yeah, perfect. Obviously, butch up because this is going to sting. A lot. I'm not going to lie to you." He gulped and kept fidgeting with every dab of alcohol on his cut. Tera used her other free hand to hold his face, "I told you, now. Stop. Moving. There, done." Keith couldn't resist but put his hand over hers, "Thanks, but what about you now?" Her cheeks turned slightly red, "Oh, uhh, I might just take care of it myself." "Why? What is it?", he didn't understand.
