Flufftober day 21 prompt: Sick partner

As Jonathan's partner, you had always felt it important to take care of the male every time he'd be hurt or end up sick, he was always your first priority. Jonathan was always getting into situations where he'd end up ill or in pain, some times that be knocks on his head from door frames, which had brought about many nasty bruises and marks, and sometimes you would have him sat on his kitchen counter or on his bed as you would quietly and quickly work away at cleaning and treating his wounds from the brawls with the other male that lived with him. At least once a week, that was what you did for nearly eight years. Constantly cleaning the blood off of his face, stitching up slits and cuts from the blonds nails as they sliced cleanly into Jonathan's face, causing him clear discomfort with simple movements of his face.

But there Jonathan lay, his body looking almost lifeless in the bed as the bandages covered almost all of his skin, the only think you could possibly think of doing was to continue to cool his still hot skin and burns with the water and washcloth atop the bedside table, constantly ringing the water out of the soaked cloth and patting it over the bandages, occasionally giving him quick kisses on his forehead like you had done many times before when you were be treating the male's wounds. Every kiss causing the young adult to wake more and more, his lips twitching and eyelids slowly starting to open, the low light of the room irritating his sensitive eyes. You lay the cloth back into the bowl, your cracked hands holding Jonathan's hand that was closest to yours. You speak softly, trying not to startle the man.

"Jonathan, what happened? Where did you get all of these burns from?" He was about to speak, but closed his mouth again, clearing debating what to say. "Dio. Dio happened. You remember that stone mask that used to be around the house, right?" You nod in response, "Well," Jonathan started, explaining all that happened, starting with finding out that Dio poisoned George and how Jonathan then had to travel to London and met Speedwagon, a gang leader on Orge Street, and how once he had gotten back to the Joestar manor, Dio wasn't acting normal. Jonathan then told you how Dio pulled out the stone mask, killed George and turned himself to a vampire and then proceeded to burn down the house and attempt to kill Jonathan.

By the time Jonathan finished telling you what had happened, you were in so much shock a single tear fell from your eye and your mouth of left agape, more of a look of terror on your face rather than that of a look of shock. You sniffle a little bit before dropping your head, "I'm so sorry you had to watch all of that Jonathan..." You go to pick up the cloth again, only to have Jonathan stop you, "You've done enough, take a break." You keep your head down with his comment, mumbling something so quiet that Jonathan could hardly hear you. With much persuasion, Jonathan had finally managed to convince you to put the cloth down, take a break and get into the bed next to him. The last part didn't take much convincing considering how exhausted you Jonathan said that at that point in time he both needed and wanted a hug, simply not wishing for any thing else.
