Yes, he was actively bleeding. And yes, it hurt like a son of a bitch. But he was fine. Some stupid kid tried to rob him and he ended up taking a knife to the abdomen but he was totally. 100%. Fine. Maybe he hated hospitals. The only redeeming quality was the nurse working on him. He’d seen her before, she knew him on a first name basis by now. Jasper had a knack for getting hurt and getting his ass sent to the emergency. He was just stupid that way. She was always there, and always the one who got to deal with his stupidity. He did his best to hide his pain while she worked on the wound. “Do you live here or something?” he remarked.
