Nuada, Abe And Hellboy Accidentally Hurting Their S/o

Hellboy

It all happened so quick one minute you were fighting beside Hellboy and the next you were on the floor cradling a bloody nose in shock

To be fair to him a gentle push for Hellboy would feel like a punch to you and being elbowed in the nose by him was no exception

He was at your side in seconds panicking and saying how he was sorry over and over handing you his handkerchief gently cupping your chin to survey the damage he did, it felt like a punch to the gut seeing you hurt because of him

For a while he disappeared leaving you alone he returned a few hours later with flowers and chocolate muttering how sorry he is and how he’s a big red oaf and doesn’t deserve you, you had none of it and reassured him how it wasn’t his fault

It took a little while since Hellboy was afraid to touch you but with a lot of pleading you were eventually tucked against his chest sleeping soundly for the next few days he treated you like a porcelain doll scared to break you

Abe

It was an honest mistake, Abe accidentally tripped you and you landed at his feet you were fine finding it rather humorous but Abe found it anything but humorous

He bent down and scooped you in his arms worry and pain evident in his face as he muttered how he was so clumsy and asking again and again “my dear are you alright?”

You told him many times you were completely fine and it was an honest accident but he carried you off to the healers room anyways pleading them to check you over he was really panicked

He made you lie down and rest for the day while he ran around waiting on you it was rather endearing but seeing him so distraught over hurting you was painful, you pulled him close to you telling him it was okay and that you just wanted a cuddle

Over the next day you were safely wrapped in Abe’s arms asleep on his chest after the incident he insisted you hold his hand so he could catch you should you trip again

Nuada

He was training when he hit you in the side with the blunt end of his spear, there was no blood but the sheer force of it send you to the ground winded and clutching your aching side

He scolded you at first for getting too close trying to appear unfazed but when he saw the pain in your eyes and how you weren’t getting back up he immediately felt bad

He bent down beside you taking your hand away from the hit and grazing his fingers against it softly feeling worse when he saw you tense up in pain, he slid his hand under your body carrying you to your shared bedroom

Nuada gave you some ice and made you tea full of elvish healing herbs laying down and tugging you against his chest allowing you to get comfy whispering sweet words in your ear and a quiet apology

He allowed you to braid his hair which was awfully rare until you fell asleep pressed against him placing a soft kiss on your forehead. He would keep you safe no matter the cost

Hellboy, Abe and Nuada with an s/o who is sick but refuses to rest

Hellboy

When he walks into his room from another BPRD mission and sees you pale and clammy in front of your laptop typing hazily he pulls you away having been here before, knowing you never stop until you’re pretty much physically restrained

He is much stronger than you and as of now you don’t have the strength to fight him back only muttering a “let me go, I’m nearly done” he of course ignores you and tucks you into bed leaving to fetch some medicine and water

He walks back in to find you typing away at the laptop again. This time he is firmer picking you up as you squirm and placing you back into bed watching as you take the water and medicine he got before placing an arm over you so you can’t get up again

He wakes up about half an hour later without you beside him only at the laptop again looking very tired and weak, he walks up to you and roughly closes the lid, growling lowly ignoring your promise of only five more minutes and yet again dragging you to bed flopping half his body on yours to trap you in

Too sick and tired to move you cuddle up to his chest lazily making him promise to wake you up after half an hour. You end up asleep on him for a day feeling fresher and a lot better

Abe

During your work shift, he reaches out and brushes his hand against yours feeling your tiredness and lethargy. Abe immediately pulls you away from your work to your protest and begins to load up on medicine, blankets and things to make you feel better

Once you realise he’s not let you out unless you’ve had some sort of rest you try to break free from his hold in bed. Abe doesn’t like restraining you so he tries his best to coax you back promising cuddles and warmth

A mix of exhaustion and bribery spanning a rather small amount of time brings you back to bed where you stay very comfortably. Abe whispers small nothings against your forehead and constantly using his senses to see if you’re hot or cold so he can adjust

Your on and off while sleeping, of course Abe stays with you the whole time unless you need something then he’ll go and get it. He really doesn’t like seeing you helpless but it brings out something in him, a need to protect you as you wrap your body so feebly around his

The both of you stay in bed like this for just under two days, he goes over the top with blankets, hot water bottles, iced water, medicine, lots of affection and doesn’t let you do anything but in the long run it’s very beneficial as you’re up and running in no time

Nuada

Nuada knows you’re ill just before you start getting symptoms, he doesn’t really act on it hoping you’ll fight it off before it gets bad though he does keep an eye on you

He found you in the library pouring over information books looking quite off colour and out of it knowing you should get some rest. He had no idea how stubborn you were when it came to admitting you’re ill you sat there outright refusing there was anything wrong

Nuada knows he can make people bend at his will and quickly sets about charming you, he brushed his hands against yours slowly doing the things that drive you crazy, talking softly, trailing warm kisses up your neck and muttering my queen, my love until he knew he had you

Gently, he nuzzled his head into your hair comfortably twisting his body to meet yours. You loved the soft side of Nuada, it was ever so rare, and wrapped your arms around his shoulders, he took opportunity of this and hoisted you in his arms bridal style silencing your objections with a simple “hush”

He got an elemental to fetch you some elvish food full of healing properties, you claimed you weren’t tired and he should let you do what you needed to but he simply snuck an arm under your back and slid you at his side. Nuada is strong and held you through your attempts to leave graciously, you fell asleep within half an hour and remained that way for a good day
