She then grew quiet as she studied Marie's injuries, noting that the only thing she'd probably be able to do anything about was the busted lip. The other injuries would just require waiting for the soreness for its way out.
Gabriella cleaned the blood from Marie's face then rubbed a bit of ointment on the bleeding part. "I've cleaned and applied ointment to your cut, so it should be healed within the course of a few hours. Until then, just watch to make sure it doesn't start bleeding again, and if it does, just apply a little pressure to it with a napkin," she instructed. As she talked, she studied Marie's lip, but so far, no excess blood was trickling out. "As for your soreness, that'll just have to work itself out in time. A good night's rest will take care of that, though."
Oh no, Healer Ashford was here. Marie's lip was already hurting so she really didn't want anyone touching it, that would just make it hurt worse. She knew this was something that had to be done but really she was not ready for more pain. She looked over to Carter and grabbed his hand for moral support. If the healer hurt her she would just squeeze his hand and hope he wouldn't mind.
"Hello Healer Ashford" she said with a little nervousness in her voice.
She really wanted Evan there with her but at the same time was sort of happy he wasn't. She didn't want him to know she fell off that stupid broom because she had promised him she would never fall while flying. Plus she didn't want him to see her with that stupid fat lip.
Whoa...What...She was touching her lip...
"Ouch, that hurts," she said as she gave Carter's hand a squeeze. Not wanting to be a total baby about this she took a deep breath and closed her eyes while the healer continued to clean the blood away. She then felt her put something on her lip that was sort of cooling and kinda made the lip feel a little better.
What.. she was done already. Well that wasn't so bad, Marie had been worried about nothing. She let go of Carter's hand.
"Sorry about the squeezing, hope I didn't hurt you," she said.
She listened as the healer told her what she needed to do.
"So all the swelling should be gone by the end of the day?" That was a relief, she didn't want to have to walk around with a puffy lip for too long. She still didn't want Evan to see it.
"I'm not going to have a scar am I?" She said suddenly. If he seen a scar on her face he would know something happened. She was NOT ready to explain this to him.
