A Crazy Night Novel

Nathaniel’s deep voice rang out from the bathroom. “Bring the pajamas here.”

Christina pulled out his black pajamas from the bag and walked over. “I’ll hang them just inside the door for you to take.”

However, as soon as she opened the bathroom door, he grabbed her hand and pulled her inside with the pajamas.

Thick, hot steam hung in the air in the bathroom. Droplets of water slid down Nathaniel’s forehead toward his high nose bridge, and his dark eyes seemed to draw her in.

She held up his pajamas between them and avoided his gaze.

“You should take a shower too. Your body must feel sticky after being out in the sea breeze.” he said slowly.

He followed me again! Christina pushed him aside and uttered, “Let me out.”

The push caused his back to bump into something, and he inhaled sharply in pain.

“What’s the matter? Does your back still hurt?” Turning around to check, she saw that the angry, red marks on his muscular back had yet to heal. The sight of them was somewhat shocking.

“Why haven’t they healed yet? It’s been so long. Haven’t you been applying the medicine?” she asked, unable to hide the worry in her eyes.

Gazing at her gloomily, he answered, “That’s because you didn’t help me with it.”

She snorted in annoyance. “Are you a child who needs someone to help them with everything?”

Only children would behave like that. It’s just like how Lucas and Camila needed me to lie next to them to fall asleep in the past.

He arched an eyebrow. “Pretty much.”

“In that case, hurry up and put on your pajamas. I’ll help you do it lest you blame me if something happens to you while you’re at my house.” Christina walked out of the bathroom, then went downstairs and bought some anti-inflammatory medicine.

She made him lie on the couch and carefully applied the medicine. It was clear that the wounds had healed but split open again from large or sudden movements, so they looked particularly unsightly.
