Elena frantically grabbed the alcohol swab from the doctor and wiped Lucas's wound as gently as she could.
Lucas watched as Elena helped him clean his wounds while appearing pale.
Elena made a conscious effort to be careful and she would look up at Lucas's expression every now and then. He was not the kind to show that he was in pain and he would choose to bear with it, regardless of how painful it was.
After cleaning the wound, Elena sensed that his arm was stiffening. She asked softly, "Does it hurt a lot?"
Shaking his head, Lucas answered, "It's alright. You didn't hurt me!"
Elena was well aware that it would still hurt even if she did not hurt him. Besides, not everyone could tolerate the stinging pain caused by alcohol.
She subconsciously moved her lips towards his wound while mimicking him by blowing air onto his wound. The numbness of it miraculously made his wound hurt less.
