Day 7: Treating Injuries
Sherry let out a huge sigh once she arrived in front of Akis apartment door. She was glad she was released from the hospital an hour ago but since the elevator of this building never seemed to work, she had to go up all four floors with her crutches, French curses filled the stairway every now and then. Aki was there too, looking worriedly at the blonde woman, but Sherry reassured her that she was fine and that she just has to get used to using crutches.
Aki had already opened the apartment door for her, so that Sherry could hop into the small apartment without any problems. Right after the entrance area was a couch with a small table right in front of it, a bit far away was a mediocre sized TV that was on top of a dark brown, wooden shelf. There were some plants here and there, that Aki now watered with a small bottle of water. Sherry sighed once again, before she sat down on the couch. Aki looked over to the blonde woman, who had troubles finding a place for her crutches while she was sitting on the couch. "Ah," Aki exclaimed, gaining the blondes attention, "let me help you with that," she said and walked over to her taking the crutches to place them on the side of the couch. "You should be able to reach them here," she said, smiling a bit at Sherry, who smiled back at her.
Aki noticed of course that Sherry's smile seemed a bit tired, which is why she decided to stop watering her plants and instead she sat down on the couch next to Sherry. "You seem tired," she commented, starting to gently massage Sherry's shoulders. "You're all tensed up too," she added, while adding a little more pressure. Sherry let out a soft hum, which reminded Aki of that one night the two of them had spend a few weeks ago, when Sherry had visited Heidelberg for the second time. "Using these crutches isn't good for my shoulders I guess," Sherry said. "They hurt quite a bit" she continued lowly, but since the apartment was quiet, Aki could hear that comment too. Aki smiled a bit, thinking about both her proposal to let Sherry live with her until her leg is fully healed and a funny detail she learned about in medical school. A funny detail she had to tell Sherry too. A funny detail, that would make Sherry hum softly again and again.
Sherry noticed Aki being lost in her own thoughts, as the red-haired woman almost stopped massaging her. "What are you thinking about?", she asked, turning her head to Aki, whose smile turned to a smirk. "Well, there's something I learned in medical school," she started, which confused Sherry. "You see, Endorphins function as a kind of pain reliever," Aki said. Sherry muttered a low "ah", but the confusion was still written on her face. The red-head leaned in a bit, so that she could whisper into Sherry's ear. "You know, there's a special kind of activity that we could do so that you get lots of Endorphins", Aki whispered lowly, before placing a soft kiss on Sherry's cheek, who now seemed to grasp the situation. She let out a soft laugh. "Well then we should try that activity, don't you think?", she asked. Aki only responded with another kiss, this time on Sherry's jaw, before she repositioned herself to straddle the tall blonde woman. "We should," she confirmed, placing a kiss onto Sherry's lips which the blonde gladly returned.
A/N: Not really treating wounds, but I guess relieving pain is also some sort of treatment. This is kind of the continuation of Day 21 of my 5D's month collection.
