A Moment Between The Two

Feng Xi laid in bed with no signs of waking up anytime soon. Prince Jin stayed by her side the entire time watching over her. His heart ached to see her in this condition. He even had the nurses teach him how to take care of her so that she would be as comfortable as possible. Prince Jin held her delicate small hand in his. Feng Xi had third degree burns from her head all the way down the back of her legs. Only her front, her lower arms, and her face were unharmed. 

Day after day passed and a week went by. It was on this day that Prince Jin who was in the middle of replacing her blanket with a fresh one when he saw Feng Xi stir.

"Jin'er! Ouch…!" Feng Xi woke up abruptly and tried to get up but was quickly hit with a jolt of pain.

"Xi'er! Nurse!" Prince Jin was quick to call in the nurse since Feng Xi had finally woken up. "Xi'er do you want anything?" 

"A glass of water… My throats dry." Feng Xi answered, her voice sounding hoarse.
