You and Zayne have been best friends since childhood, always looking after each other, trusted under each other's protection. He's a cardiologist meanwhile you're a well qualified nurse at the Akso Hospital, Linkon city. You guys were soon enlightened by the notice of a medical field trip that's near. You and him as usual, attended the trip with the strong determination of helping the people in need.

Everything went well in the trip until a small accident caused where the trip was held, the accident could've been critical but Zayne was right there to save a few kids, which caused him to endure all the pain of the incident. Now, after treating the people that were mildly affected by the incident, you were passing past a secluded room for the hospital staff. You peek inside, just to see Zayne shirtless, with bruises and cuts all over his upper half and face, struggling to treat himself by reaching the ointment to his back and arms. Your heart clenched as you decided to approach him.

"I don't need help, I'm the one in the charge here to help people." He spoke while looking away,—his voice was cold but not harsh. You sigh, trying to surpass the urge to let out an exaggerated groan.

"...don't be stubborn, doctor Zayne. Stubbornness doesn't suit you."

His eyebrows slightly furrow, but this time he doesn't protest, letting you treat him with such gentleness.

It's not like he's mean, he's just not used to people caring about him. He's the one who always helps people out, but not the one who receives some kindness.

His breath hitches ever slightly as you hold his chin up to dab the blood off of the corner of his lips gently, his hazel orbs staring up at you with an unusual soft gaze—almost as innocent as a child. Letting you do whatever you want with him with reluctance.

"You know you didn't have to do this."
