Belle was that child who often fell down doing something or the other and if it weren't for Lucas, she would have had more wounds that she had come to acquire. With the gentleness he used the cotton on her skin, Belle somewhere felt shy over the attention she was receiving right now. 

When the carriage had tumbled over four times, Lucas hadn't found the time to react quickly as it was very unexpected, it had resulted in Belle hitting her head and hurting her leg. If she were a human she would have hurt herself more as a human's body wasn't as strong and durable as the vampires. 

He noted how she wasn't looking at him anymore and had her eyes cast down. Once he let go of her chin, she finally looked at him to see him place the cotton on the box but didn't close it. 

"You don't mind, do you?" he asked when his hand reached for her leg. 

"No."
