I is for Injury
Bell flinched a bit as a small stinging sensation came from her side. She glanced down at her side, her red eye was met with as red liquid seeping out of a bright red angry burn scar. Bell cringed at the ugly memories of that day the scare brought up. The day she jumped in front of the hot magma attack that would have killed Luffy's brother Ace if she had not interfered. The attack had left permanent scars to not only her body but also Luffy's emotions, because despite Bells best efforts she was unable to stop the attack fully and had stilled killed Ace, but she did not regret her decision one bit, she would have happily given her life away for Luffy any time of day.
"Bell! Hurry up we're about to head out for an adventure!" Speak of the devil and he shall appear before you. Luffy came barging into the girls room. Bell's quick reflexes allowed her to quickly hide the bleeding burn. But sometimes Luffy was too sharp for his own good.
Luffy bounced impatiently at the door waiting for the normal snappy reply, when something on the floor caught his attention. There on the floor standing out from the dark brown wood was a small poodle of bright red blood. At this sight his body froze momentarily be for jump starting again. "Bell you're bleeding are you injured anywhere?" Be babbled on quickly as he made his way to the frozen albino. When she didn't answer him he tightly grabbed her shoulder and turned her to face him. The sight that greeted him caused him to freeze once again.
He certainly remembered the wound, how could he forget it seeing as Bell flaunted the scare with the way she dressed. "I thought you said that it was fully healed…" Luffy trailed off slowly brushing his tanned callused fingers against the rough skin a deep ping of hurt ran deep through his body.
"It-"
"Don't you lie to me that it is when the evidence that it is not healed fully right in front of my eyes." Bell flinched at his harsh tone.
"It's almost fully healed but once in awhile it reopens. It's no big deal really it doesn't hurt to much." She said in a hushed whisper, trying her best from upsetting her caption more. The room fell into silence as the albino neko watched her caption stare down at her abdomen with a sullen face.
Before she knew it Bell was lifted from the ground and up in her captions arms bridal style. She let out a squeak of surprise at the sudden change of position.
"You're staying behind this time around, after Chopper bandages it up."
"But-"
"No arguing captions orders understand. Your injury needs to heal so you need to let it, and seeing as you refuse to eat meat to make you feel better faster you need to rest your body."
Bell stared up in awe of her caption. She knew beforehand that he wasn't as stupid as he acted but she never knew he could act like this. Combining her knowledge of how hard headed he is she just sat there in the arms of her beloved caption and allowed him to have his way.
