The Second: Scars (6-3-05)
John led Natalie to his car, shutting her door as she slid inside. Natalie shivered once, keeping her arms wrapped tightly, cocooning herself from the world.
John started the car, but stopped, staring at her. "Natalie..."
"Don't." She pleaded. It was too much, too close.
"You're still bleeding." John gestured to her forehead as he pulled out a handkerchief carefully dabbing away the blood, sparks flying. "Better get that checked out."
"I'm fine."
"Still, wanna take care of that or it will scar."
Natalie looked at him, his wounds of losing Caitlin reopening. Her voice was soft. "Then we'll match."
