Afterburn {Cuz Zippy and I cannot STOP}

Nov 13, 2009 13:00

Sighing, Jean sat at the side of McNinja's bed in the medbay. Tentatively she reached out and brushed her fingers across his arm. He'd been out for days now, and it was all her fault. He'd tried helping her when she'd snapped and became... that thing and she'd almost killed him ( Read more... )

"Mmmm..."

It wasn't much of a response, but it was the first noise he'd made in days, percursor to a deep galvanizing breath in and a sleepy groan following it. His eyes opened slowly, half lidded and struggling for focus at first. Once he spotted her, though, he smiled weakly.

"Hey..."

Her face seriously lit up seeing his open eyes and it was a great thing to be seeing in her opinion. "Heeeeeeeey.." she smiled, continuing to stroke his arm.

Her smile softened. "How are you feeling?"

"Better than you look, J." he murmured, wiggling one hand a little to be sure that arm worked before lifting it up to stroke her cheek. Wow, that was a lot of bandaged fingers. His skin felt stiff in a lot of places. Burns probably. Not good.

"You look exhausted how long have you been here?"

"Since they brought you in," she admitted with a small sad smile. "But I'm fine....It's you I'm worried about."

Her lips turned down and she gently squeezed his arm. "It's all my fault, I'm so sorry," she whispered, her gaze moving slowly to his bandaged hands.

A few days later Jean was beaming as she hooked her arm with McNinja as they walked from the medbay toward her room. She was happy that he was healed enough to finally leave, though probably not as happy as he was.

She'd been concerned about letting him leave at first, but he'd proved that he was more than recovered and would do better sleeping in a real bed rather than the ones in the medbay - which she completely agreed with (they weren't comfortable).

She looked over at him and her smile grew as they approached the room. "So I know you thought I was taking you back to your room. But I want to make sure you're 100% better before allowing you to go back to your own."

He raised an eyebrow at her as she lead him up to her door, chuckling a little.

"That sounds suspiciously like you giving a great big excuse for not wanting to leave me alone." he pointed out kindly, leaning over to kiss her forhead. "I'd complain except that your bed is comfortable and Sean would probably drive me up the wall right now."

He let her pull him along through the door to her room, still kind of slow on his feet from the amount of stitches and stiff muscles he was still dealing with, sinking onto the edge of her bed greatfully.

Jean flashed him an innocent look as she helped him get situated on her bed. "Well, that is sort of part of the reason," Jean admitted with a sweet smile. "

Crawling up on the bed, she moved behind him and helped him out of his lab coat and without saying anything began to rub on his shoulders. "Besides, if you were in your room I wouldn't be able to give you awesome backrubs all the time."

wantstobebatman November 13 2009, 17:17:01 UTC

Doc almost had a reply but just buckled forward a little with a groan when she went for his shoulders, taking a second to find his voice.

"Okay, two things." he said, voice a little garbled as he held up one finger importantly.

"One - please feel free to continue using your psychic powers to properly time spontaneous backrubs. Two -" he flicked up a second finger "- as much as I appreciate this please tell me you're not doing it out of guilt over the whole almost killing me thing? Because, seriously, Sean has nearly killed me, like, a dozen times since we were kids and I never get anything from him except nifty office stuff on my birthday so... really, you could just find me a nice Newton's Cradle and we can call it even."

He chuckled, nuzzling her neck.

"I don't know. There are a few ninjas around the ship I hear and they're some pretty daring guys." he said seriously, laying little kisses on her neck between words.

"I know you usually pull out the rolly chair on people who get too handsy but there's one guy I know who's kind of immune to that. All it does is make him like you more."

doctor_jeangrey November 16 2009, 14:03:20 UTC

Jean couldn't help but giggle, though she quickly got it under control and got back into the act.

"Oh wow. I might have to watch out for that one guy. He sounds kinda sexy and sneaky. Maybe you could introduce us?" She asked, her fingers once again playing with her hair.

wantstobebatman November 16 2009, 14:44:03 UTC

"I don't know. You might not like him. I hear he's a terrible patient who's always trying to get up to stuff even when you told him to take it easy." He murmured, closing his eyes at her fingers in his hair, but still trailing up her neck, laying a little more pressure on that spot behind her ear that always got her to squeak when he did it unexpectedly.

She jumped a little and he couldn't help a sigh, his voice falling into a more serious tone.

"Do you have any idea how pretty you are?" he asked quietly, his hands around her waist slipping up just under the edge of her shirt to stroke across the bare skin just above her hip. He'd seen her far more undressed before, touched much more of her too, but there was something so much more intense about these little hesitant brushes of skin to skin.

She was lucky she was seated or her knees might have given out the second his lips found that spot behind her neck. It was an evil spot, though at the moment she was quite enjoying the attention he was paying it.

Her skin felt electrified by his little touches and his words were making her heart feel as though it had just done a little flip. She leaned back a little, unwrapped her arms from around his neck. She reached between them, fingering his tie for a few moments before slowly undoing it and pulled it free from his collar,

She swallowed, lifting her gaze to meet his incredible intense one. "How am I suppose to answer that without sounding conceited or unsure of myself?" she asked before leaning in and nibbled lightly on his earlobe. "And do you know how handsome you are? How incredibly sexy I find you?" she whispered softly.
