Erik grimaced as he walked into Charles' office, seeing the red soaked bandage on his temple.

"Guess what they say about head injuries are true." Charles said, without looking up from the papers on his desk.

Erik said nothing, opting instead to come closer, probing lightly at the injury himself. Charles allowed the man a moment of fussing before he reached up to grab the offending limb, kissing the back of his hand lightly, lips lingering for a few seconds before holding it to his lap.

"It's superficial love, I promise. I'm fine."

Logically Erik knew that, but that didn't mean that he liked see the telepath hurt. But if Charles said he was fine, then he'd back down.

"You better," He said jokingly. "We need that head of yours fully functional." Bending down he kissed the crown of Charles' head. "Me and the kids. They were quite worried."

Charles brushed it off with a chuckle. "It takes more than that to knock me down, I assure you."

"Of course."


Alright, like. I wrote this yesterday off the day 20 whumptober 2021 prompt XDD. Wasn't going to post it bc i just had the dialogue in my head but then I liked it too much- Idk y'all this is my first time writing them, I've only seen three of the McAvoy movies (I guess thats the alt timeline sorry not versed in this completely XD) This might not be very in character or whatever and its super vague but I hope y'all still enjoy it. I'm like impulse posting this bc I love it too much and I didn't want it to just live in my notebook forever.
Either way, this was just a fun thing to write as I try to get back into writing. Thank you so much for reading and I hope y'all enjoyed it!
