I covered my chest with the tee and a minute later Tristan glided through the room. He had a white box and scissors. He was staring at me nervously. "Okay," he sighed and sat down next to me, putting the medical stuff on the bed. "Could you please turn around?"
"Yeah," I said, doing as told. "It won't hurt, right?"
"I hope not," he answered, brushing away my hair from my back, the touch of his soft fingers sending goose bumps all over me. "I'll do my best, I promise." He gently pulled off the bandage from my skin. I didn't feel any prickly pulling, just the warmth of his soothing hands on me.
"How bad do they look?" I grimaced.
"It's only a few stitches. They don't look that bad," he said softly, pressing lightly some sort of wet wipe over the wounds. "Besides, nothing could look bad on your skin."
