'My Darling, gently tugging your ear, i am in need of your healing services. Please My dear...i trust you.'

My heart was pounding out of my chest as i traveled to his room. Of course, the guards stopped me, but i showed them the letter and they allowed me to pass. Half-jogging-sprinting to his room, i finally reached his door. I knocked gently on the door, he moaned telling me to come in. I walked in and i winced, his back was bloody, and i could feel the heat radiating from the gashes.

I shuffled across the floor to his bed where he sat, holding his back box. I grabbed it and started wiping the dried blood off him, being careful not to cause bleeding again. He breathed deep each time I touched his back. I couldn't take it and i had to ask.

"What did i do now?" i asked choking up. "Why do you think it was you?" he asked

"Because, if It was about you, you would have stood up to him" I said with tears in my eyes. "Nothing , America, I caused it, but he would use any excuse to take it out on you," said said sucking in at the pain while I rubbed gel in his torn flesh.

I knew that wasn't true , he was only trying to spare me the hurt. I started to bawl saying I should just leave and let him marry Kriss. He stopped me and rubbed my cheek with his hand kissing it lightly , it was code for 'not gonna happen'.

Trying to take our minds of things i said, "don't think just because you are hurt that you can call me 'my dear'. He chuckled, "whatever you say darli.." he stopped at the pain I cuased him as I was wrapping the lashes. I did this to hold in the antiboitic cream and antiseptics I rubbed in them, along with a numbing/soothing gel. It would help him in the log run I just hate to cause him more pain.

Once I fixed him up, he turned to me and softly kissed me, leaving that unexplainable feeling in me once again.

"Now," he whispered jokingly yet serious, "I have matter to discuss with you, about our ear tugging," I laughed knowing what was coming next, "it is typically understood that if one of tugs our ear that the other pull theirs too. Unless they have urgent prince-ly matters to attened to. Then they are excused, I will not accept the playing hard to get response."

"I can't make any promises!" I teased. Then I boldy kissed him, only for a few seconds and then I pulled away. I walked to the door , but right before I left I simled and said, "Goognight, my dear." Shutting the door , I ran to my room and feel asleep, thinking of Maxon.
