'Assistant' - Henry Wu x Reader - Book 1

C ~ XVIII ~ Dumb Names 😹🦖

"Fine, how about..uhm...Whiskey..or something?" Y/n shrugged, noticing the baby dinosaur had slowly begun waking up.

"Actually, that doesn't sound too bad." Owen nodded, turning to face Y/n when he finally stopped.

"Whiskey it is." Y/n smiled, scooting a bit to get Whiskey off his lap.

Owen opened the door and helped Y/n get Whiskey out of the jeep, the two struggling to get him from there to the medbay area in the lab. On the way, most people they passed had looked at them like they killed somebody, others that noticed, mainly kids, wanted to touch Whiskey but had been held back by a parent or relative. Eventually, they got to the area they needed and set Whiskey down in a pen.

"Hey Marlene! We got a baby Triceratops that got a leg injury, could you check it out for us?" Y/n smiled as he walked over to a brunette lady who immediately looked up upon hearing her name.

"Hello Y/n. Haven't seen you around here in a long time. I'll go ahead and check up on the little guy now, you guys can either come back later or just hang around until then." Marlene smiled back at Y/n before walking over to Whiskey and doing whatever she had done, seeing as neither Owen nor Y/n could see what she did.

"I have to head back, check on the Raptors and what not. I'll see you tomorrow Y/n." Owen nodded before leaving the medbay.

"I'll stay, I don't have much to do anyways." Y/n shrugged, sitting up on a counter with a few items on it.

"This should only take a few more minutes, I'll be back." Marlene nodded before heading into another room for something.

Y/n glanced over at Whiskey who was looking right at him, making him smile. The only time he had ever really dealt with baby dinosaurs was with the raptors so this was kind of a big deal for him. Also the first time really dealing with a Triceratops in general.

After about 5 minutes, Marlene returned with something and walked back over to Whiskey.

"She seems to just have a sprained leg, nothing too major. We just have to keep her here for about a month and then she should be fine to go back into the valley." Marlene turned back to Y/n who sighed, nodding slightly.

"Thank you, I should probably head out though, I'll be here tomorrow to see Whiskey if that's alright." Y/n gestured to the baby dinosaur who was pressed up against the pen to try and move towards Y/n.

"That's alright with me, I'll see you then. Have a good night." Marlene waved to Y/n as he left.

Y/n headed back to Henry's lab first, just in case he hadn't left yet. Once he got there, he knew Henry already left. Before officially heading back to the living quarters, he noticed Henry had put the little wooden t-rex next to a couple folders on the desk he was at earlier. Y/n smiled before turning the light off and closing the door.

"Henry?" Y/n called out, looking around the room once he finally got to the living quarters.

"Hey, how'd it go?" Henry appeared from by the bathroom and walked over to hug Y/n.

"Alright, seems she just had a sprained leg so she's over in the medbay with Marlene. Me and Owen agreed on naming her Whiskey instead of one of his dumb suggestions." Y/n chuckled, kissing the top of Henry's head before taking his boots off.

"Whiskey? That's kinda boring." Henry crossed his arms and leaned against the counter by the fridge.

"Hey, I wanted to name her Nail Polish but Owen said no." Y/n rolled his eyes and walked over to Henry.

"Has more fun to it than Whiskey." Henry shrugged, smiling at Y/n slightly.

"That's what I was saying! But him being the boring guy he is, only agreed to some basic name." Y/n mumbled, practically trapping Henry against the counter with his arms against Henry's sides. "Like, he literally named a Raptor a basic human name and I can't name a Triceratops Nail Polish?"

"I dunno, sounds like a cool name to me." Henry kissed Y/n's cheek.

"Anyways, we should probably head to bed, even though it's a bit early." Y/n sighed, walking away from Henry and over to the bed, beginning to take off his jeans.

"Woah, woah, woah. If you wanted to do something tonight you could've just said something, love." Henry teased, lying down next to where Y/n was sitting.

"Really? Last time that happened- my bad EVERY TIME- you were a mess, I wouldn't be talking if I were you." Y/n chuckled, kicking his jeans somewhere and lying down next to Henry.

"Be quiet-" Henry mumbled, rolling over so Y/n couldn't see how red his face was again.

"You didn't say that last time-" Y/n moved to cuddle Henry but was whacked with a pillow. "Oh, you wanna go?!"

"Wait!-" Henry sat up but was quickly met with a pillow smacking him harder in the face. "Oh you little-"

"You won't be able to get me even if you tried!" Y/n giggled and grabbed the pillow Henry whacked him with, chucking it at him.

"Quit!" Henry laughed, throwing the pillow right back at Y/n.

Aight so, I'm kind of thinking of doing a silly little headcannon chapter, if you've seen certain wattpad stories, you'll know what I'm talking about, but hopefully you guys liked this, sorry it took so long for me to get out, I've been kinda busy. Anyways, I've finally gotten around to watching Camp Cretaceous (no, not the reason I mentioned the Scorpious Rex in this chapter, I literally forgot the thing existed and I knew it before I watched Camp Cretaceous but uh-) and all I have to say is that it's silly as hell but alright. Anyways, have a good day/night =)
