A/N:

I have a question, would you guys prefer less frequent but well-written updates OR more frequent but less well-written updates?

Taylor winced as her girlfriend cleaned her bruised and cut knuckles with an antiseptic wipe - they had seen the doctor straight after the incident and counted their lucky stars when she said there was miraculously nothing broken.

However, it had to be bandaged up to prevent infections. There was only one thing that Taylor didn't like, her hands had to be cleaned and bandaged every morning for a week. She hated it, it hurt so much when she felt the sting of the antiseptic seeking into her wounds.  It was only day 3 and Taylor already was sick of her hurting knuckles.

"Ow!" She screamed as Karlie pressed a little too hard with the wipe, causing more pressure on the already hurting bruises.

"I'm so sorry. Just hold on. Not that long to go," she apologised, putting the wipe down deciding she had sterilised the cuts, and wrapping them up just like the doctor had shown her.

When she had finished, Taylor stood up and pulled Karlie off from her knees (Taylor is on the couch and Karlie is kneeling on the floor) and kissed her softly but quickly.

"Thank you," she whispered against Karlie's irresistible lips.

Unable to help herself, Taylor reattaches her lips to Karlies and pushes her onto the couch so she was on top. She begins kissing along her jaw and neck before she's stopped by Karlie pushing her slightly up and away from her.

Taylor looked at her with a pout painting her face to which the other girl just rolled her eyes at.

"Whyyyy?" She whined, fighting against Karlies hands who were holding her arms as they both sat up on the couch.

"Firstly, your hands still hurt and they play a key role in sex, secondly, I have to go shopping for food because you've been exhibiting symptoms of a person who has never seen food before and eating everything you come across," The green eyed woman laughed.

The singer didn't reply and just turned her body to watch the TV that was showing a re run of Criminal Minds.

Karlie got up and went to grab her purse and car keys from upstairs. When she was at the front door she wrapped herself in a coat seeming as it was nearing the end of November and it was currently quite cold outside.

Before leaving she went back into the living room and saw her girlfriend still sulking at the TV. She walked over to her and kissed her quickly on the cheek and then left the house.

Karlie had come home and put everything away in their corresponding places before finding Taylor curled up on the couch fast asleep. She smiled to herself at how cute she looked.

As carefully as she could, she tiptoed over and moved Taylor's head so it was on her lap - her plan failed straight away when she saw the singer wake up and smile at her with her immense blue eyes trained on her sea green ones.

Karlie kissed her forehead, "didn't mean to wake you babe. Go back to sleep," she whispered, now stroking her blonde hair gently.

Taylor's eyelids felt heavy as once again she closed them and drifted into a heavy sleep.

"Finally!" Taylor exclaimed as the doctor examined and assessed her hands and said she would no longer need the bandages. She had been waiting for this moment all week.
