When we reached my apartment, all thoughts of hiding where I lived flew out the window. The only thing I was thinking about was getting Brian upstairs and cleaned up. I wasn’t sure if anything was broken, or if we should be heading to the hospital instead of my loft, but I knew he needed my help. The stairs were a challenge, but when we finally reached the door, we both sighed in relief.

“So this is where you live?” He mumbled as he lifted his head and looked around.

“Yep. Home sweet home,” I rolled my eyes as I watched him. We shuffled through the door, and I kicked it shut behind us. When I went to lead Brian over to the bed, he halted me. His eyes carefully scanned the room like he was looking for something. He carefully took in every little detail, and then nodded as if he was giving me permission to help him.

I led him over to the edge of my rumpled bed, stood him in front of it, and began working his belt loose. He snickered, and then groaned in pain and I glanced up at him in confusion.

“What?” I muttered.

“If all I needed to do to get you to show me this place was to get beat up, I would have done it sooner,” he shrugged and winced.

“What happened?” I released the buckle and reached for the button on his jeans.

He smirked slightly, but stopped when the sore on his lip began to bleed again. “I don’t want to talk about that.”

I blew out a frustrated breath, “Why?”

“I told you,” he paused. “You’re going to hear and see things that you don’t understand. I want to keep you safe. The less you know the better. I’m putting you in danger just by being here.”

When the clasp on his jeans wouldn’t release, I growled. “Damn rain!”

“Why are you trying so hard to get me naked?” he grabbed my hands to still them.

“You’re all wet. I’m tired. I want to get in the bed and go to sleep. I don’t want to curl up on wet sheets,” I rolled my eyes and tried to shake off his hands.

“Let me help you,” he released his hold, and then nimbly unclasped his pants. “All yours,” he attempted to smile.

“Only you would find this funny,” I grumbled as I shoved his wet jeans down off his hips, and peeled his wet t-shirt up his chest. After stripping him down to his boxers, I pointed to the bed, “Get in.”

“Yes, Ma’am,” he smirked and slowly lowered himself onto the mattress. A soft groan bubbled out of him as he settled on his back, and I moved into the kitchen to grab a wet cloth.

“This might hurt a little,” I warned as I went to work on cleaning his face. He had dried blood all in the scruff of his jaw, and his eye was turning a painful shade of purple. He mumbled something that I couldn’t really understand as I pressed the cool cloth to this lip.
