“I don’t, but I believe in life lessons.” Jack replied gently. “Katelynn… come here..” he holds his other arm out to her, wanting her to move closer to him so he could at least kiss her.
She looked at him like a little injured animal but still got up and sat down on his bed, being careful not to sit too close and risk hurting him. Her wonderful man, how it pained her to see him like this…
“Don’t worry,” she whispered. “I know someone who can heal you and I’ll ask her as soon as we can go back to Metro City for her to heal you, okay?”
Leaning forward, she touched her forehead to his.
Jack wrapped his arm around her as tightly as he could and held her close to him, still unable to move his head properly thanks to the neck brace he still wore but being able to hold her… that’s what mattered.
“Is she the one who fixed your legs?” he asked quietly, as he brought his other hand up to touch her hair gently.
