Re: Fill: Martin/Jon, hurt/comfort after injury 2/2
Date: 2019-11-04 01:14 am (UTC)Jon's scowl grew deeper. "I wasn't aware I was." His tone was so starchily reminiscent of who he'd been back in Research, Martin had to suppress a smile.
"I guess you think you're being noble or something, but we're already involved, Jon. Even if Tim and Melanie and I aren't out there going head to head with monsters, we're still stuck here doing the bidding of a literal murderer. And that's without accounting for whatever monsters manage to...to sneak in."
"When you put it that way." Jon looked up at him, a little at a loss.
"Well, um," Martin regetted his vehemence. He wasn't used to getting the last word with Jon, and it was a bit uncomfortable. "Just let us know what you're going through. Maybe we can help with some of it."
"I have," Jon said defensively. "Melanie and I have been in communication. She's been digging up research for me. Keeping me caught up on the situation here."
"M-Melanie?!" Martin heard himself exclaim, "but she's--how did you even know--? Did you know each other from somewhere? You're not…" dating?
Was Melanie cute? Martin hadn't thought about it, but on reflection, realized she probably was. All gamine with her arty haircut and big eyes. And a woman. That part probably mattered quite a bit.
Jon was, predictably, looking at him oddly. He felt himself starting to blush, but couldn't shut up.
"But, I mean, that's fine, of course. Good choice. She's a great researcher. For someone who's been here a month." He'd managed to mutter the last part, but Jon was still eyeing him curiously. "Are you ready for me to wrap your hand up?"
Jon remained seated throughout, which was good, because once Martin started it became clear Jon wouldn't have been able to remain standing until the end. Martin applied the ointment with a cotton ball and the softest touch he was capable of, but Jon alternately held his breath like he was trying to pass out and, when Martin would pull back for a new cotton ball, collapse back in his seat, chest swelling with each breath.
Martin bit back the constant impulse to apologize--to relent--and worked through it. Partway through, he removed his jumper, balled it up, and gave it to Jon to squeeze, and that seemed to help him suppress his shivering. Martin applied the absorbent strips he'd cut to each finger and wrapped it, before moving onto the palm.
As he secured the last piece with tape, he murmured "All done now." Martin finally dared to look at Jon. He was clearly exausted, cheeks looking hollow with the strain. There was a smudge of light high on one cheekbone, reflected on his sweat. His hair was damp with it as well. He blinked dazedly at Martin, thin tears glistened under his eyes.
"You alright?" Martin crouched to look more closely at Jon, who groaned and shifted, making an effort to pull himself together. "Ten scale, how much do you hate me right now?" he joked.
"Hate you?" Jon said, incredulous, voice still weak, "I love you. You're not going to believe me, but it's never gone that well. I usually have to bite something not to scream."
Martin barely heard the rest of it over the word love careening around inside his skull like a drunk bee. He could't tear himself away from Jon's eyes, large and dark and still moist, but if he didn't, Martin was afraid he'd never say another sensible word.
"Oh."
"Yes. I was using my belt for it." Jon looked down, pointing with his good hand. "The one I'm wearing, if you want to see the tooth marks. Sorry, I've dropped your jumper." He reached for it, and Martin steadied him and grabbed it himself.
"It must be the pain pill."
"It helped, but you've got a light touch."
"Thanks." Martin carefully avoided looking straight into Jon's eyes. "Didn't they write you a prescription for anything at hospital?"
Martin saw Jon's face freeze, looking to the side the way he did when he was preparing to lie. Oh, he'd not gone, had he? He'd been treating a second or third degree burn with over the counter supplies and webmd. Brilliant. "Never mind. I got that one from Toby, the redhaired guy. He knows about the burn, so if you…." Jon began nodding his head agreeably and Martin trailed off, realizing Jon would never come to Toby. He'd continue to suffer through this operation every time it had to be done with paracetamol or nothing at all.
Martin loved him so much suddenly, it felt a blade had been run down his throat to his heart.
Well, that was wrong--the love had been there a while. It hadn't been engendered with the realization of the extent of Jon's pointless masochism. But the pain Jon put himself through, and Martin's powerlessness to do anything to prevent that pain, was throwing it into stark relief.
Martin didn't have the right to demand to know Jon's plans. To tell him not to throw himself into danger. To take care of him. But he was glad he'd been allowed to this once, he thought, as he cleaned up the sink and counter. Jon insisted on helping, and Martin couldn't deny him, though he was very much in the way.
As they rode the elevator back up to the ground floor--five and six had come and gone while Martin had been working on Jon--Martin noticed Jon attempting to text one-handed on a flimsy-looking flip phone.
"Jon, is that a burner? Like drug dealers use?"
"I guess it is." Jon looked at him wryly. "Did you forget I was a fugitive?" He looked upward, wondering. "Am I still a fugitive? Hmm."
"Did you destroy your regular phone?"
"I dropped it in one of those electronics recyclers."
"Tell me your new number," Martin demanded, pulling out his own phone.
"I don't know it yet." Jon frowned at his screen. "Hush and let me do this. It takes ages on….there."
As they stepped off the elevator, Martin's phone got a message.
>Hello, this is Jonathan Sims' new phone.
"So you didn't lose my number," he joked at Jon's retreating back.
Jon turned back, holding the door for Martin. "Of course not. I know it."
Later, it would occur to Martin to be peeved Jon could have contacted him at any time in the past lonely, worried months and hadn't. But for the moment, he saw Jon, not burning, not ashen, but light and Martin could do nothing but let it wash through him.
