Russel return his gaze with teasing smile.
"So, you pretend to sleep because didn't want me to know that your injuries bleeding again?" Russel raise one of his eyebrows at James. Smirk didn't disappear from his face.
James gritted his teeth harder, the combination of his anger and Russel smirk make him want to explode. He can feel the pain from his thigh injuries and the blood seep through the bandage but he ignore it.
"I.... You... You little jerk..." He spat out, his voice sound strained from trying to keep his anger in check. Russel reach the part of his thigh that wrap with bandage.
James flinch and tense his muscle when Russel touch the wounded area. The pain make him jerk but he try to stay still, trying to hide the discomfort he feel.
He look down at Russel with half lid eyes, his gaze still mix with anger and something else. He can see the teasing glint in Russel eyes and it only make him angrier.
"Angry?" Russel ask teasingly.
