The newspaper fell to the floor as Jack ran from the kitchen.
He found Daniel, wearing briefs and an undershirt, sprawled in the hallway, sock-clad feet halfway up the wall opposite the bedroom door. Daniel turned his head and blinked at Jack. “Ow?”
Jack crouched, ignoring the twinge in his knee. “You okay?” He examined Daniel’s head with a gentle hand.
“Ow.”
“I don’t feel a bump.”
“That’s not the part of me that hurts.”
“Oh.”
“You waxed the floor.”
“Well, yeah. I mean, you were still asleep, so I thought I might as well get some chores done.” Jack helped Daniel to his feet. “I already grocery shopped and got the truck gassed up and washed, got the second load of laundry going….”
“You waxed the floor. Ow.” Daniel slowly hobbled into the bedroom.
“You do a number on your back?” Jack asked anxiously.
“No.” Daniel crawled onto the bed and sank onto his stomach with a groan. “Think lower.”
“Oh.” Jack hovered, feeling guilty. “Want me to kiss it and make it better?”
Daniel snorted. “Maybe later.”
Feeling forgiven, Jack put his hand on Daniel’s leg and ran it slowly up to the top of his thigh. “Want me to rub it?”
There was a pause.
Daniel took off his glasses one-handed and tossed them onto the nightstand. He pulled a pillow closer and snuggled down into it with a sigh.

“Get the liniment.”
