I couldn't stop top the flood of emotions. My shoulders trembled as I tried to suppress the subs building in my chest. Why was I crying sa intensely over injuries on a man I barely remembered? Yet the pain felt visceral, as if his wounds were my own.

"Angela..." Sean reached for me, confusion evident in his expression "You have two wounds, I choked out, gesturing toward his torso. “Dite old, one new. This new one is so severe, yet you didn't say a word. You've been walking around, taking care of me, and all this time..." My voice broke.

His acknowledgment only increased the weight in my chest. I said nothing more as I finished securing the fresh bandage around his abdomen, my touch lingering perhaps longer than necessary.

When I started to gather the medical supplies, Sean placed his hand over mine. "I'll take care of this. Why don't you go take a shower? You must be tired." I nodded, suddenly aware of my exhaustion. "Alright." Sean's voice followedas I moved toward the bathroom. "Ill be waiting for you in bed." The suggestive undertone in his innocent statement sent heat rushing to my cheeks. I closed the bathroom door quickly before he could see my reaction.

The hot water soothed my tense muscles, washing away the physical fatigue but doing little to clear my conflicted thoughts. When I finally emerged, wrapped in a towel with my damp hair curling around my shoulders, I was startled to find Sean standing just outside the bathroom door.

A slow smile spread across Sean's face. "What's this? Already can't bear to part with me?" Who said I can't bear it?" I retorted, feeling a blush rise to my cheeks. "You should head back to New York tomorrow." "Really?" Sean asked, his voice dropping to a whisper as he leaned closer. Before I could respond, his lips were on mine, soft yet insistent.
