It was late, around 11:30 and you could finally go to sleep after a long day of hunting. Arthur wasn't back yet, you were a bit worried. You shrugged it off as nothing, he's strong he can take care of himself just fine you told yourself before climbing into your bed and falling fast asleep.

3:00 am

You woke up to a thud outside the cabin. Getting up, you quietly grabbed your pistol before opening the door. The sight you saw sent your mind into panic mode. Arthur had shown up at your doorstep. He was shivering, bleeding, scared. There was also a slightly dazed look in his eyes, he was clearly drugged. He looked like he had been assaulted. Looking up at you, swaying slightly as he was close to passing out, he took a shaky breath before saying, "...I didn't know where else to go...", then collapsing unto your arms. You caught him just before he hit the floor.

"I've got you" you said, laying him down on the bed.

You went to the next room for a brief moment, gathering all the things you needed to patch up his stab wound. When you got back he had a very panicked, scared look in his eyes, as if he didn't know where he was or what had happened. He winced as he tried to back away from your touch.

"Hey, it's me, it's just me" you said in a calm voice in an attempt to calm him down.

You quickly patched his wound up, cleaning it and wrapping a bandage around it before sitting down beside him. What ever he was drugged with was still making him a panicky, shaky mess. You went and got a glass of water.

"This will help, I promise" you said while helping him to sit up enough to get a drink.

He winced in pain before laying back down. Who ever did this to him would pay, that's for sure.

"Try to sleep okay?" you said before standing up. "I'll sleep in the other room".

You stood up to leave, but before you could you were stopped by Arthur trying to speak.

"W-Wait... Please stay-stay for the night..." he stuttered weakly.

"Okay, I'm not goin anywhere" you promised him before sitting back down beside him.

You were not going to sleep, you'd stay up, just incase he woke up needing you.
