“I feel so silly,” JJ admits, his pale face flushing with embarrassment.
“It’s fine,” Drake assures him. “It can happen to anyone.”
“But it shouldn’t happen, not to me! I’m a detective in the SCU, I visit crime scenes where there’s blood everywhere, sometimes dead bodies, or body parts, decomp, all kinds of disgusting things to see and smell, and I’m fine. I can deal with all of that, and then I go and faint on you over something so trivial!”
“Obviously it’s not trivial to you, or you wouldn’t faint,” Drake tells his boyfriend. “I just wish I’d known before, so I could’ve been prepared. I nearly didn’t catch you.”
“Most of the time I’m okay, as long as I don’t look. I mean, it’s not like I’m afraid of the pain, it didn’t hurt, I hardly even felt it. I don’t know why needles bother me so much, they just do.”
“Well, the next time you have a blood test or a vaccination, I’ll be right there and hold your hand. You can look at me the whole time, and if you faint, I promise I’ll do a better job of catching you than I did this time.”
The End
