It Started Out With a Kiss (a Rhett and Link fanfic)

Chapter 13-Stitches and kisses

Guys this chapter will get a little sinful at the end (sorry if it's terrible!) but I just want to clarify something. At this point in the story Rhett and Link have known each other for 5-6 months and i just feel like now is the time to do this. The time may not all add up in the chapters but its fanfiction so it doesn't matter! enjoy the chapter!

a week and a half later

Links POV

"Yeah that's great news! We will be in this afternoon! Thank you!" I put the phone down and dance in the hallway. Rhett heard me and walked out with a dishcloth in his hand.

"Well someone is in a happy mood! What's gotten you into such happy mood?" I jogged over to him and kissed him, catching him by surprise. I smiled.

"That was the hospital! They said I can get my stitches removed this afternoon." he threw the dish cloth aside and picked me up and spun me around.

"That's great!" he smiled. He fingered the stitches that ran up my arms and my hands. He brushed the hair out of my eyes.

"Soon you'll be back to your old self again. The mythical beasts have been super worried about you. And its been super lonely doing episodes without you." I sighed. He wrapped his arms around me.

"We need to leave now. My appointment is in an hour. Will you come with me?" he smiled.

"Of course I'll come with you!"

at the hospital

"Now Mr Neal this might hurt a little..." the nurse picked up a bottle of rubbing alcohol. Rhett moved from chair and sat on the hospital bed next to me. He grabbed onto my hand. She placed some on a rag and moved towards me. She held out my arm and placed the cloth on my arm. The pain caused me to hiss. I pressed my face into Rhetts chest and he wrapped his arm around me. Eventually the pain subsided. She washed the cloth and did the same thing on the other arm. She walked back over to the table and picked up a pair of scissors. I flinched when she brought them closer to my arms. I folded my arms even though I knew I was being stupid.

"Come on Link. You don't have to look at it. I'll cover your eyes." Rhetts giant hands covered my vision. I heard the snipping of scissors and I whimpered.

"Almost done Mr Neal!" After a few more minutes I heard her walking away.

"Okay Mr Neal that's you done!" Rhett removed his hands and I looked down at my hands. There was faint lines where the stitches had been but they looked like my hands. I smiled. Rhett caressed both of my hands. The doctor smiled at us.

"Now it seems that your bruises are almost cleared up as well. But they will only take a few more days and everything will be cleared up and you'll be as good as new! When you get home you might want to give those cuts a good wash just to get the last of the rubbing alcohol off." I grinned. I stood up off of the bed and shook her hand.

"Thank you for everything." she nodded. Rhett pushed the door open and we walked out, holding our hands together

at home (later in the evening)

Rhetts POV

"I'm so happy to finally get those stitches out." I hugged Link.

"Now why don't you go and get a shower and then join me in bed?" He nodded. He grabbed a towel off of the drying rack and ran upstairs. I locked the doors and followed him in pursuit. I walked into our bathroom and began to brush my teeth as I saw Links figure masked by the shower curtain.

"I'll be few in a minute ok?" I made a strangle gargling sound as my mouth was full of tooth paste. I heard Link laughing over the sound of the water against his skin. I walked back into the room and drew the curtains shut. I unbuttoned my shirt and threw it in the washing basket. I slipped out of my jeans and my briefs and threw them in the basket as well. I made my way over to the drawers and opened it to find a pair of pyjama bottoms. I didn't hear the water turn off behind me.

"Rhett you ready for...." I didn't turn around but I saw Links reflection in the mirror. My entire naked back was exposed to him. He had a towel wrapped around his waist, his entire body glistening from the water.

"Ummm could you give me a sec?" I rubbed the back of my neck. He walked towards me slowly. As soon as he got to me he trailed a finger down my spine, making me shiver.

"I never realised how muscular you were until right now." He expertly flipped me around so I was facing him. Our waists were pressing closely together.

"Have I ever told you how much I love you?" his voice went impossibly low. He smirked as he grabbed the pyjama bottoms out of my hand and flung them to the other side of the room. He stood on his tiptoes and kissed me deeply. Our tongues fought for a while before I finally conquered him. I ran my fingers through his wet hair as I mangled it into a messy frizz. In the heat of the moment I had grabbed his towel and it was now resting in my hands. I pushed him onto the bed and smirked.

"Are you going to give me my towel back?" I shook my head. I threw the towel aside and pushed him flat on his back, my arms pressing his down at either side of his head.

"You'll be needing this towel after I'm through with you Link..."
