"No, I'm… I'm okay…" Nathaniel looked up at V, pain evident in his eyes.

"did I ever mention you're a terrible liar?" V said, looping his arm under Nathaniels and bringing him over to the bench

Nathaniel shrugged and sat on the bench, holding his face in his hands. Yeah, this might've been a bad idea…

He touched his shoulder "where does it hurt?" He asked softly

Nathaniel sighed quietly. "Everywhere… Everywhere hurts."

V sighed and placed his hands on his back. "Stay still." He closed his eyes and concentrated

"W-What are you doing?" Nathaniel asked quietly, complying anyways.

"healing you, somewhat." V explained, focusing on the pain

"You can… you can do that?" Nathaniel flinched when V added more pressure.

"sort of, got it from my mom. Sorry." He tried to ease the pain in Nathaniel's body, knowing it was hurting him but also knowing that it would be worse if he didn't try

"Nngh…" Nathaniel gritted his teeth, trying to put the pain out of his mind. I don't think this is helping…

He pulled his hands away and sighed "ok, that should be better in a few hours. Does it still hurt?"

Nathaniel nodded silently, keeping his eyes tightly shut. He seemed to be very tense.

V sighed softly "you have to relax, it's not going to do you any good if you don't relax."

"I-I can't… it hurts more that way." Nathaniel stared blankly at the floor.

"I know, but it's gonna hurt more if you don't." He sat next to Nathaniel and waited patiently

Nathaniel hesitantly relaxed his muscles, grimacing a bit. It hurt a lot, but this was supposedly going to make him better.

"see, that wasn't so bad," v encouraged "the tea should help when we get back home, can you stand?"

"I… I think so…" Nathaniel stood up unsteadily, his joints and muscles screaming at him to stop.

V held out his hands to help steady Nathaniel "think you can make it to the car?"

Nathaniel nodded, following V out to the car. He almost fell a couple of times, but pretended that he didn't, of course.

V sighed softly "I'm sorry about this, I should have known the injuries weren't healed well enough."

"It's not your fault… I wanted to come." Nathaniel sat in the passenger side, exhaling sharply. Great… now I'll have to stay put longer.

"yeah but I should have not let you come." He argued, getting the driver's seat

Nathaniel shrugged, leaning his head on the dashboard. "It's fine, whoever's fault… I'll heal."
