"I was checking to see if maybe you had a sign on your forehead that said 'Easy Target' or 'My boyfriend worries, pick on me' or something," he said with a sigh and a slight smirk.

"Hey!" she laughed, playfully punching him on the shoulder. She rolled her eyes at him and grabbed the wet washcloth she had earlier to wipe her arms clean. "Haha, you're funny."

He chuckled softly as he took the washcloth from her. "Here, lemme do that." He dunked the cloth into the wash basin, then wrung it out before gently wiping it over her arm.

Ershey winced as she let him wash her cuts. She looked up at him, grateful to have him next to her. "How's everything in Mush world?" she asked teasingly.

"Same as always," he replied, smiling slightly as he scrubbed a little harder at a cut with some stubborn dirt in it. "Eating and worrying about you..."

Ershey chuckled softly, trying her best not to wince from the pain. "You're always worrying about me."

Ershey shrugged shyly. "I just figured you'd already run outta the door with everything I put you through..."

Mush believed that didn't even garner a response. He just kept on washing her arm gently, though he realized he was getting angrier and angrier as he saw all the cuts and bruises she'd gotten. Why hadn't he been there to protect her?

Ershey looked at him sadly, wishing she could somehow make things better. She hated how he almost always saw her beat up. And she hated how much it made him worry. She walked over to him, wrapping her arms around his waist and gently hugging him from behind.

He let out a sigh, a mixture of sadness and frustration. "Promise me something?"
