100 story challenge (Tom Hiddleston imagines) *edited*

Blood (Henry)

"NURSE! NURSE!" You heard someone call. You rushed to the commotion and saw the King covered in blood and a horrible cut down his torso.

"Put him down here," you commanded the men carrying the limp body. You took off the king's armour and undergarments leaving him in his pants.

"Try and stay calm your majesty. The more you twist and turn the more likely it'll hurt, and you won't get help."

Henry grabbed onto the bed frame to try and cope with the pain. Tears were streaking his face as you put pressure on the wound.

"I'm sorry sir, it's going to hurt a lot. I'll try and treat the wound as well as I can, just stay strong." You gazed into his beautiful blue eyes and was almost lost in them, but he winced in pain again and you got back to helping him.

You asked for more cloth and warm water. You cleaned the dried blood from his stomach and asked the other nurses around you to clean his face and cool him down. You kept putting pressure on the wound and slowly but surely, the bleeding stopped.

Your hands were covered in his blood and you tried to dress the wound as best you could, wrapping a bandage tightly around his stomach. Henry had also falling unconscious while you were helping him, so you were waiting by his beside cleaning your hands waiting for him to wake up.

The king stirred loudly and slowly opened his eyes, you squeezed his arm to make sure he could feel you.

He looked over to you as you spoke, "your majesty how are you feeling?"

"weak... water," he whispered. You got up and got him some water, he winced in pain as he tried to sit up. You placed a hand on his back and helped him drink.

"Thank you," he slumped back down, and you sat down again keeping the water on the floor next to you.

"You were cut quite badly and lost a lot of blood. The wound is healing, but you must limit your movements as much as you can. We don't want the wound to open up again sir." You kept your gaze away from him to show your place, you were insignificant to him in the grand scheme of it all. Why would he care about you?

"You saved my life," he lifted your head with his hand and smiled, "thank you."

You smiled meekly, looking down again, "it's my job your highness."

"You are so very beautiful," he smiled again, making you blush.

You looked up at him staring at you intensely, his blue eyes piercing your e/c ones. To think that you could ever be in love with the king was preposterous, "I'm only a nurse,"

"It doesn't matter. What is your name?" He didn't evert his gaze from you, making you more uncomfortable and anxious.

"y-y/n sir,"

"It's good to meet you y/n, and please call me Hal." He was still smiling at you, but you were even more nervous around him. Maybe you did want to love him.

"I'm afraid I can't do that sir." you looked down at you lap again but frowning.

"And why is that y/n?"

"Like I said I am just a nurse, an unimportant person in your life, who shouldn't have the ability to call you by your first name."

"Well I want you to," he lifted your head again and smiled warmly at you, "y/n you are so beautiful, even when you are still covered in my blood. I want to kiss you... badly."

It was shocking of course, you felt even more of a blush on your face. He was so handsome and so vulnerable; you had the opportunity to kiss the king of England. He saw your upset and took advantage of it. He pulled you closer to him and tried his hardest to pull himself up, your face was only centimetres away and Henry closed the gap.

Cementing your lips onto yours and traced your lips with his tongue making you gasp a little meaning he had the chance to slip his tongue in your mouth and battle with yours. The kiss was everything, it was more than perfection. He pulled away from you first as he was in pain from the cut. You however, lingered in place as the shock of the kiss sent fireworks through your blood stream. You could feel the tingle of his lips still on yours, and it made you feel almost complete.

"Are you okay dear?" Henry asked placing his hand on your cheek.

"I-I'm fine," you sat back in your seat, "do you want any water or anything else?"

"May I, have you?" He smirks, moving his hand down your body to your hand.

You smile back at him, "you really want me?"

"Yes."

A/N: Hopefully these are still engaging, I feel like they are getting quite shitty atm but i'm hoping the next few chapters are better. Share your thoughts. ❤
