'Assistant' - Henry Wu x Reader - Book 1

C ~ XVII ~ Training 🦖🦕

What if the Parasaur got hurt?

The sudden thought caused him to let go of the gear and get a confused look from Owen at the sudden movement. But from noticing Y/n's mood, Owen decided to take over the steering and get them out of there- Y/n having no time to stop him.

By the time the two returned, it was already beginning to become nighttime. Owen was surprisingly the first out of the Gyrosphere, turning in confusion when Y/n hadn't even moved. He held his hand out for Y/n to grab to pull him out but he still didn't move.

"Y/n. Come on, Henry's probably dying to see you." Owen tried getting Y/n out, but only managed to get him to turn his head.

"What about the Parasaur?" Y/n muttered, feeling guilt for just leaving her behind.

"Have you seen those things in action before? She'll be able to defend herself against a mere Dilophosaurus. Now come on, let's go kid." Owen sighed, still holding his hand out.

Y/n hesitated for a moment before turning fully and grabbing Owen's hand- unbuckling beforehand. Owen offered a small smile as he helped Y/n out of the Gyrosphere.

The two walked back to the park, splitting up as Owen headed for the Raptor pen and Y/n for the lab- almost forgetting Henry was most likely still working. Upon arriving in the lab, he was slightly shocked to see that it wasn't that 'packed' like normal, only a few workers and some tourists were there. Y/n sighed- almost not even realizing it himself- and walked over to Henry's lab door.

Confusion was occupying Y/n even more now, seeing as Henry's door was left open. Even though it was just a few inches, it still was odd to him that the door was open. Especially since today was not a chill day, it was actually quite busy before Y/n has left in the morning- and Henry usually makes sure his door is locked while working so he doesn't get distracted or irritated because of something happening outside of the room.

Y/n peered in through the door, slowly opening it more only to close it behind him. Infront of him, Henry sat at his usual spot at his desk. Only the fact he wasn't working and was rather hunched over a bit and his head was against his desk. Y/n tilted his head slightly, furrowing his eyebrows as he moved a bit closer.

"Henry, love?" Y/n spoke, almost scaring Henry out of his body.

"Jesus christ- Y/n..Don't fucking do that.." Henry groaned, glancing behind him at Y/n before back to his desk- looking at the papers scattered across his desk.

"Are you alright?" Y/n asked, still concerned at Henry's unusual behavior.

"Yeah uhm..I..." Henry started, trailing off as he stared at his desk, eventually sighing and leaning his head against his hand. "Jesus fucking christ darling.."

Now this caught Y/n off guard. Henry was not one to normally act like this, even after going a while without seeing Y/n + dealing with his work. Y/n moved closer to Henry, taking his regular spot ontop of Henry's desk. Henry was already looking up at Y/n, sighing slightly.

"Are you alright?" Y/n repeated, trying to ignore Henry's hand- which was now tracing patterns onto Y/n's thigh.

"Can we just...can we just head back to your place?" Henry mumbled, stopping his movements and standing up.

Y/n quickly nodded and grabbed Henry's hand, leading him on the way back to the Living Quarters. He unlocked the door once they arrived there, making sure Henry went in first. Y/n sat down at the table, struggling to untie his boots, and Henry collapsed on the bed- making Y/n a bit more concerned.

Once he was finally able to get his boots untied and off, he made his way over to Henry. If Henry hadn't moved onto his side to look at Y/n, Y/n would've assumed he was already sleeping. Y/n lied down next to Henry and he shuffled over to lie ontop of him. Henry sighed as he rested his head against Y/n's shoulder.

"Do you wanna talk about it?" Y/n asked, rubbing Henry's back.

"Not really, I just wanna sleep.. and cuddle with you obviously.." Henry mumbled the last bit, earning a slight chuckle from Y/n at the comment.

"I think I can manage that, love." Y/n sighed, kissing the top of Henry's head and ruffling his hair a bit.

Henry only hummed in response, already feeling like he was going to fall asleep. Y/n closed his eyes after noticing Henry's body get way more relaxed.

"I love you, darling.." Henry mumbled again, just loud enough for Y/n to hear.

"I love you too, get some rest." Y/n wrapped his arms around Henry, him almost mimicking the same movements.

The two of them lied in silence for a bit before eventually drifting into sleep and staying like that for quite sometime.
