Thank you to Jazzy Uchiha, Misogirl, moonlight wings 13, and Zen-chan for reviewing! I love hearing what you have to say! Anyways, here's the update for Monday, (this came quicker then I thought!!) I hope that you

Enjoy!

B-Band-aid:

After five days of nothing but rain the sun finally came back to the world. With the sun out again, Joshua and Rosette were allowed to play outside of the Seventh Bell Orphanage. Unfortunately Joshua's illness began to act up again, and he had to stay behind. Rosette wanted to stay with him, but he insisted that she go on without him. After pushing her, Joshua got Rosette to leave without him.

Rosette traveled through the woods as usual, but as she came to the spot where she and Chrno would usually meet, she tripped on a rock. Her leg scrapped against the rocks that lay on the forest ground, before she stopped near the edge of a creek.

"Ow dammit," Rosette whispered.

The rock had cut her knee a few times, and had gone deep enough to draw blood. Even though it didn't look that bad, it hurt. Oh if only Joshua had come with her.

"Rosette!" a voice said.

She turned her head to her left and saw Chrno coming over to her. With a slight groan she turned her entire body around to face him while blood leaked down her leg. He spotted the blood cascading down her knee and sprinted over to her.

"Are you alright Rosette?" he asked.

"I just," Rosette gritted her teeth together, "need to wash my wound out and bandage it."

Chrno smiled. "I'll take care of that."

He walked over to Rosette and ripped a part of his clothing off. She watched as he dunked the cloth into the rushing creek. After letting the water soak into the cloth, wrung it out, and placed it over her injury. A small hiss of pain escaped from Rosette's mouth as she closed her eyes.

"I'll wrap it up," Chrno said. "You'll be fine in a few minutes."

Rosette opened one of her eyes. "T-Thanks."

Chrno finished wrapping Rosette's leg up, and tied it on the side. When everything was done and over with, Rosette let out a deep sigh. Chrno stood, and helped Rosette to lean against the bank of the creek.

"It's not a very good band-aid," Chrno sat down beside Rosette, "but I think it will work for now."

Rosette took in a deep breath, and smiled. "It's fine for now Chrno."

Blood began to seep through the thin cloth but nothing else happened. The blood soon stopped, and the pain in her knee began to fade away.

Chrno was the first and only person outside of her family to place a band-aid over a wound for her at the time. But it was something that meant the world to Rosette. To her, it meant that someone in the outside world cared for her. Someone outside of the Orphanage wanted to take care of her, and cared enough about her to help her through anything.

Suddenly, Rosette began laughing. Her laughter grew, and grew and before long, Chrno couldn't help but give a small chuckle.

My band-aid. She thought.

R&R please!
