Money Power Glory (Lena x G!P Reader)

Ch 28. Recovery Week 1: Sunday

(Y/N) POV

It's too early in the morning to be awake on a Sunday. I had no choice. I had to get out of bed without waking up the raven haired woman in my bed. I did not want to bleed out on the bed. Around 1AM, I woke up and found ourselves sleeping on the couch from watching Netflix. The couch got uncomfortable so I wanted to move to the bedroom. I didn't want to leave Lena. My dumbass thought I was capable of carrying the younger CEO upstairs with me.

Carrying Lena wasn't the problem. The real problem was carrying Lena up the stairs without putting so much pressure on my wounds AND trying not to wake her up during the mini trip. My dumbass was determined and accomplished the task. My wounds didn't hurt as much but I guess around 6AM, my stab wounds decided to inflict pain and start bleeding. Wonderful.

I slowly limp around the bedroom to look for the first aid kit then sit on the single couch. I removed the bled out bandages and tried to clean up the old and new blood on my abdomen. The pain increased slowly but I didn't want to take any painkillers, knowing my pain tolerance is high. I hissed when I started to add alcohol on the cuts.

"(Y/N)?" The young CEO calls me out, sounding very confused and tired.

I didn't respond right away because I stuffed my mouth with a shirt to prevent me from groaning in pain when I was trying to clean.

"(Y/N)! What are you doing!?" Lena bolted out the bed once she saw what I was doing. She kneels in front of me to inspect what I was up to.

"You should've woken me up! You clearly can't do this by yourself." She grabs the materials out of my hands and I still haven't said a word.

With her small yet soft hands, she does the rest of the cleaning. She was gentle whenever she came across a wound too deep.

"Thank you." I managed to say aloud.

"Mhm. Can you lift up your shirt more? I need to wrap these bandages properly." I did what I was told and continued to watch the woman work with her hands.

"How did this happen? And how did we get to the bedroom?" Lena says with her signature eyebrow raised up, still continues to be gentle with my bruised body.

"Woke up around 1am. The couch was feeling uncomfortable. I guessed I pushed myself because I didn't want to leave you behind so I carried you. Got at least a few hours of sleep in. Here we are." I kept it simple.

"That's very kind of you but look at you! Your cuts are not fully healed. Some are but the deeper ones are still trying to heal as fast as they can. You basically reopen a few."

I sighed loudly and suddenly she added more alcohol on the cut. I yelped and hissed at her.

"Don't give me that attitude! You knew better than to hurt yourself. Now stay still. The faster you heal, the faster you get your abs back." Lena states.

"How did you know I have abs?" I questioned the young Luthor because I don't remember showing her anything. Unless that time I changed my shirt when she spilled her wine on me but she kept her eyes on my face most of the time.

"I fell on you twice. I kind of felt your abs through your shirt." She blushed.

I gave off a small laugh. "Pretty sure you felt more than just my abs, babygirl." I mumbled out, hoping she didn't hear me.

She adds more of the burning liquid on a wound again. Fuck.

--------------

Lena and I basically did the same things from what we did yesterday. We continued to watch Black Mirror with the young Luthor cuddling my side but she was very cautious with all the cuts I have. I honestly wasn't paying attention to the screen but the screen I was focused on was my phone. I couldn't help but look at the stocks for Lunar Industries. Everything seems to be stable especially with the updates I got from Rex and Jen.
