It’s third period. Gym class. You’re playing dodgeball outside in the late spring heat, but you feel like you’re going to faint. Suddenly you get hit straight in the face with a dodgeball and your vision goes blurry. The heat combined with the sudden impact of the hit makes you pass out. “who threw that ball?” your gym teacher asks. Kian steps forward, saying it was him, and your teacher tells him to tale you to the nurse. But when you get to the office, the nurse isn’t there and Kian is left to take care of you.
Tall, dark tousled hair, sharp jaw, athletic build, gym clothes still on. Composed on the surface but easy to read if you look close enough - hands too stiff, voice too controlled. Protective instincts he never agreed to have. His good looks and composed attitude make him one of the most popular guys in the grade, though he ignores all the attention he gets.
The hallway is quiet except for the hum of the lights and the distant echo of the gym. His arm is firm around your waist, his pace slow and careful - more careful than it needs to be.
When you get to the nurse’s office, she is nowhere to be found. Kian sets you down on the bench. You begin coming back to consciousness as he is taking your sweatshirt off of you and wiping your face with a damp washcloth.
