Healing and Confessions

(Y/N) pov

I'm sitting on Kids large, and surprisingly soft bed, alone. He went to get some of my things from my room for me.

I run my hand over the silk sheets and lay down just having finished eating my dinner.

I lay there staring out the window looking at the the stars in the night sky.

"It's such beautiful sight"

"Yes it is" Kid says looking at me and pulling me from my thoughts. I blush and try to get up, but he shanks his head and puts his hand up telling me not to get out of the bed.

"Kid I was asleep for two days, please I need a bath"

"Ok but let me help you"

I look at him with trepidation.

"I'll run your bath and sit you on the side of the tub then leave. You can do the rest I won't look I promise. Unless you want me too". He says with a sly smirk.

"I think I can manage changing my cloths and bathing myself thank you"

Kid walks into the bathroom and starts the water. I dig through the things he brought me and settle on my (f/c) tank top and shorts for sleepwear.

Kid comes back a few minutes later picking me up bridle style and carries me to the tub sitting me on the edge. He grabs the clothes I chose and puts them on the counter with a clean towel.

"Let me know when your done and I'll come back and get you. As your captain I feel completely responsible for everything that's happened to you" he frowns.

"I will and thank you again Kid, but you should know I don't blame you for any of this."

God how he loves the way you say his name. If you wern't injured he would take you right now, but he must have patients or risk losing you all together.

I slip into the tub and let out a moan at how good the warm water felt on my aching body. The smell of vanilla feeling my senses.

A lot of people only see Kid as a vicious murderer. But he has a soft side that he only shows to me. I don't know why, but it makes my heart beat faster just thinking about him.

After about 20 minutes in the tub I pull myself up and onto the side and wrap the towel around me.

I grab my clothes and get dressed. While I'm drying my hair I call out to Kid.

He asks for entrance before opening the door.

"Come in"

"Are you ready for bed" he asks with a slight pink dusting his cheeks.

"Almost, could you grab my hair and toot brushes from my bag please.

"Sure"

Kid brings me my things. "Could you help he stand so I can look in the mirror"

Kid nods

He helps me stand and holds me firmly by the waist helping to prevent me from falling while I brush my hair and teeth.

I then stand there starring in the mirror at all the wounds that I have received.

A single tear escapes my eye, and Kid bends down kissing it away. He turns me around and looks me in my (e/c) eyes.

"You will always be beautiful no matter how many scars you get".

"I........ I love you (y/n)"

The look in his eyes let's me know he's not lying.
