Heal me (Matt)

[sienna]

Shannelle didn't remember very much of what happened, she however did remember Matt being there and she remembered the agonizing pain followed by her being shot. It had hurt so much that it wasn't even funny anymore. And as she had turned back - she vaguely remembered having turned into a werewolf beforehand, she didn't exactly have a choice on the matter on whether or not she had clothes on and had fallen down, naked, much to her own embarrassment. She felt even more embarrassed, when Matt had scooped her up in his arms, to take her away to his place, which was in a way the most romantic - did she just think that? - thing someone had ever done for her.

And now, inside Matt's appartment, she was lying on something soft, maybe a bed or a couch, after he had pulled out the bullet and covered her with a blanket, which she was very grateful for in a way, but she still couldn't shake the feeling of being naked before him. I mean, hell yeah, she was naked.. underneath the blanket, but that wasn't the point. She had seen a side of Matt, that made her forget Daryl in a way, then making her feel guilty, as soon as she thought of Daryl again. But the thought of Daryl then soon left her again, leaving only thoguhts of Matt behind, confusing her more and more.

Slowly she sat up and looked around, pulling the blanket around her some more, as a shiver ran down her spine. As soon as she saw where she was, she bit her lip and looked for any sight of Matt, as she kept the blanket around her, just a little bit tighter, as to not let it slip, hoping she could put on some clothes in between now and not so very long.

Whatever way Matt had thought about it, he couldn't just leave Shannelle there to her fate with some supernatural being, let alone that hunter that was trying to kill her and was responsible for the injury she had now. If only he'd responded more quickly... He just couldn't shake this bad feeling every time he thought about the pain she must have felt, she must still be feeling. And then however weird or wrong it might sound, he had quite a hard time too with ignoring the fact that she was naked all the while as he held her in his arms and carried her to his place, luckily figuring that it wasn't so far from where he had picked her up.

When Matt had arrived at his place with her, she was out of consciousness again and he wondered how much she had realized from what he had done with cleaning her wound, getting the bullet out, putting a bandage over the wound, and then putting a blanket over her naked body. He didn't really have clothes that would fit her, not yet at least he figured since she was still out cold. After checking up that she was okay to leave alone for a moment, he left, quickly going into town and getting some clothes that he thought that would at least fit her, if she found them pretty or disgusting was something he wasn't sure off, but he would know that soon enough hopefully. The entire time that he was on the way, there and on his way back, he couldn't really shake Shannelle from his mind at all, how she had gotten hurt, how happy he was that he saved her, how irresistible she actually was, did he just really think that? Better not focus on that too much, she was a werewolf and she probably had someone already or at least didn't want a human and hunter for that matter like that in her life.

Once Matt came back he closed the door behind him after checking if everything was clear and when it appeared to be the case, he stepped inside completely and walked back into the living room where he had put Shannelle when they came here. The couch had been closest and luckily for both of them it was pretty big so it gave enough room for the treatment and for her to rest on. He also figured in a way that it might be pretty weird for her to wake up in his bed, being naked and everything. Once he saw her sitting up with the blanket held a bit tighter around her. He bit his lip as subtle as he could to not let it show how awkward it kind of made him feel realizing that she wasn't wearing anything under that, so only put a small step forward while raising the bag in his hand. 'Hey, I'm back, I thought you might want some clothes when you were awake.' He said with a small laugh and shrugging her shoulders, before he still put a few small steps closer to her and the couch. 'You feeling okay?' He asked really curious about how she was feeling and doing.

Shannelle hadn't realized anything of what he had done to her, as her unconsciousness had numbed out all sorts of pain and had allowed her to drift in a restless sleep, where she wasn't awake nor fully asleep, as her body tried to amend to being shot. She had never been shot in her life before and she wasn't dealing with it all that well, she wasn't dealing at all.

However, when she sat up, her pain went numb again, every now and again sending painful stabs through her whole body. Didn't she need to go to a hospital? When she heard someone come in, she shivered automatically and looked at Matt, the guy she had thought of and couldn't get out of her head. She looked at the bag in his hands, then got up with the blanket around her body, like a towel or a weird sort of dress, while she walked over to him. "Thank you." She said softly, as she looked at him and then hugged him, because of the happiness that she was alive and he was here. As she hugged him, she hardly noticed how the blanket slipped a little, baring a little piece of skin. "Thank you for saving my life." She then said softly, before looking at him. "You shouldn't need to, Matt, honestly, that wasn't why I helped you, you know? I'm just really happy I met you."

It hadn't taken Matt long at all to notice Shannelle's eyes going from him to the bag with clothes in his hands and he smiled for a moment, and kept it up to try and hide the fact that he wasn't sure what to do or say when he saw her getting up with the blanket around her like a towel, robe or some weird looking dress, which still made her look good, but those were the kinds of thoughts that had to stay out of his head right now. 'You're welcome...' He said softly since he had wanted to say more, but couldn't really get it done anymore once she hugged him.

As Matt held her, with his arms slightly around her, he couldn't help but notice how the blanket slipped a bit and slowed some more of her bare skin, which made him swallow but if he said something about it, it would be pretty clear that he'd looked at it to notice it. When she thanked him again, now for saving her life, he smiled and still held on to her calmly. 'You don't have to thank me for that, for one I owed you but... I couldn't just let him kill you like that, you don't deserve to be hunted down, and especially not to be killed for something that's inside of you and I know you are trying to fight and control.' He said softly but completely honest because it was how he felt, although it was kind of hard to actually say out loud, he hadn't had this kind of awkward conversation much before, with a very attractive young woman having only a blanket around her, after he'd actually already seen her naked, but was trying to avoid that subject all together.

Matt nodded when she said he didn't have to, that she didn't help him because of that but mostly he heard her words about how she was just happy to have met him. 'Well I could hardly let you walk around like this, especially when you want to leave right?' He asked first with a laugh and then slightly shrugged with his shoulders and tried to just look at her eyes instead of down from there. 'So am I... Although neither of us actually seemed to like each other very much, so on that matter it kind of surprises me that we're here now, like this...' He joked partially with a laugh again, pointing shortly down with his eyes before expressly looking back up again, not wanting to seem perverted either or something after all, nor just make her uncomfortable and/or more awkward of course. 'So if you want som privacy to get dressed?' He asked her as he slightly automatically cocked his head to the side with a questioning look and slight smile too.
