Selena

I see the bandage and I swear, running over to him, "What the f*ck is this?" I ask, getting a towel and wetting it, "Why didn't you tell me, M?"

Mark

"'Cause I didn't want you worrying," I take the towel and set it over the wound with my free hand, closing my eyes for a moment, "This happens often. It's nothing new. I didn't want to make a big deal out of it."

Selena

I swallow, "I'm even more worried that you haven't told me," I whisper, "You can't hide this stuff from me. God, Mark..." I replace his hand with mine, "Atleast you wrapped it up."

Mark

I flash a smile and glance back at her, "It's fine. I treated it and everything. But... I won't hide the next one from you. Sorry. I think I owe you that."

Selena

I don't say anything. God...why am I acting so motherly? This is weird.

I decide it's good and release my hand, shaking my head and walking out to the couch, "Whatever."

Mark

I check my shoulder before following her and sitting at her side.

Selena

I glance at him before sighing and turning CSI on.

Mark

I study her and sigh, laying down with my head in her lap.

Selena

He lays down with his head in my lap and I flash a small smile, "Not now, M."

Mark

I sigh and sit up, studying her, "You alright?"

Selena

I nod, sighing, "I'm fine."

Mark

I study her again, "You sure?"

Selena

I don't answer this time, and look back at the T.V.

S-Should I tell him about my new job offer?

Mark

I study her but press no further, not wanting to be pegged as the nagging type.

Selena

I sigh, deciding I should tell him, "Going on another job," I finally say, looking at the t.v, "In Egypt. Won't be back for a year or so."
