Anyone else would've begged for painkillers for such an injury, but this officer was still smiling calmly.
No wonder he could become a detective of the Major Crimes Division at such a young age.
The nurse said gently, "Do you need anything? Does the wound hurt?"
Luke shook his head with a smile. "No, I'm fine. You can go back to your work. There's no need to waste time on me."
The nurse nodded. "Press the button if you need anything. You know how to use it, right?" She pointed at a red button at the head of the bed.
Luke said, "Thank you for the reminder. I'll use it if I need to."
After the nurse left, Luke looked at the cot and said, "Don't pretend to be sleeping when you're awake. Don't you know what can happen if you sleep too much?"
Selina yawned and sat up. "I was just afraid that I'd be a third wheel if you started hitting on the nurse."
Luke sat on the bed and sniffed her. "Well, you smell great now."
