“Do you two have no shame?" His voice emerged croaky but strong. "Greg!" Janette flung herself against his chest and hugged him tight. It hurt like hell.

1! Nice to see you too, Jan." He privately thanked Algra as she pried off the redhead and then enjoyed her as she leaned over gently and placed a slow kiss upon his lips. She tasted great.

After their Little kiss was over, Gregory looked over to Janette who was smiling broadly as fresh, happy tears spilled down her cheeks.

“Come here, no squeezing," he ordered.

Janette happily obliged and leaned over to kiss him properly. The touch of her cherry lips was slow, intimate, and deeply thankful. He kissed her lovingly as Algra robed herself in her small fur garments and Slipped out of the tent to summon Valise.

“Don't you ever do that to me again." Janette sniffled a little after releasing his lips from her own.

“Believe me, I won't." Greg began to recall the painful memories of just how he'd ended up laid out unconscious in a bed for over a week.

“Good, now- Eek!" The Little abrupt squeak Janette made was the result of four people suddenly making their way into the tent to see her Laid there in the buff.

Janette quickly bounced backwards behind the bed and they all watched the top of her head scramble over to the edge before an arm popped up to snag her robe from its post and tug it downwards. A moment Later she stood up, fully dressed and sporting a pair of fiery pink cheeks.

“Can't you guys learn to knock!?"

Algra turned around from where she'd entered and gave a pointed look towards tent's entrance. It was Little more than two sheets of thick material that parted in the centre.

“Oh, uh I guess not." Janette looked a little sheepish after her outburst. "Well at least clear your throat or something!"

Algra rolled her eyes. She was in the company of Emmet, Valise, and Talina. All of the new trio were looking at Gregory with smiles and relief on their faces. Valise quickly stepped up beside the bed and he was made to follow her finger before his nose with his gaze as well as perform a few other tests. He seemed to ace every one of them.

“Well then, I suppose I should pronounce you in good health, considering the circumstances." Valise finished her examination of her patient and rested her hand upon his chest in a way that spoke of a deeper affection.

After all the kissing and the touching, Gregory was suddenly very glad that he'd been dressed in a pair of Linen pants. He decided to take his momentary pulse of carnal energy as a good sign. Everything was at least still working down there.

"Great, well that's good because-" He was quickly interrupted by a sharp stabbing pain in his chest as he tried to rise from the bed.

“Easy there," Valise gently chided him. "You will need to spend time resting before you go anywhere. Your mind has returned but your body still needs more time. Bones were broken. I can help them heal but I have my limits, yes?"

It was a testament to how gentle and sweet Valise was that Gregory didn't argue. He felt a sudden, raw burst of frustration. Stillness and rest were not what his muscles wanted.

"Alright." He winced as the pain flared again before subsiding.

“I do have one pretty urgent question though.”

Everyone suddenly Looked very attentive.

“Why the hell am I covered in doodles?"

Emmet went off to announce that Gregory had woken to the camp. The women stayed and helped wash away the alchemical concoction that Valise had patterned across the young man's body. He was stripped out of his pants and quite quickly had four pairs of female hands all over him. It didn't take much of that before he was sporting a rather prominent mast between them. As it lifted and Greg tried desperately to think about cold showers and naked senior citizens to try and calm himself down, the women started to notice. Eventually, the stifled giggles lifted up to outright laughter as Janette Lightly poked the jutting tip of his cock with her finger and wiggled her eyebrows.

“Looks like someone else has woken up." She teased and made everyone but Gregory burst out Laughing.

“So, this whole ‘me being bedridden' thing. It's not going to be too heavy on dignity, is it?" He felt his ears almost sizzling with embarrassment .
