"Yeah! See ya tomorrow!" Derek ran out of school, waving to his buds. He was having a party that weekend with the guys. A pizza party, the pool, and a sleepover out in the yard. It would be perfect...
"OOF!" There was a huge collision on the balcony. In Derek's madness, he didn't notice Layla running his way, her attention also diverted. There was a huge explosion, with books, papers, pencils, and some purse contents flying.
"Oh my god, I'm so sorry," Derek said as he started to pick up Layla's purse contents out of curtesy. A cell phone in a case, iPod (also in a case), a wallet, and a note. He stuck it all back in her little Fendi bag.
"No, it's my fault," Layla said. "Crap, hope my science report wasn't lost...Dangit my leg hurts like hell..."
"You're hurt," Derek said, noticing bloody gashes in her legs and a bruise on her cheek. "Is it...?"
"I think I can walk." She stood and immediately crashed, yelping in pain. "Aw, I can't walk on it. Could you...?"
"Sure." Derek finished scooping up all the papers and books, stuffed his own into his backpack, hers in her pink one, slung both over his shoulder along with the Fendi, and picked her up, sweeping her off her rear. The nurse's office wasn't far, but he'd have to walk through a crowded hall to get to it. "Aw..." and swore under his breath as he saw some juniors come out of a classroom.
One look at Derek and they all burst out laughing, punching his arm playfully that had a bruise on it but was hidden under his sleeve. "Dangit you guys! She's hurt! Aw..." and swore again.
Layla's eyes watered. "I'm sorry," she said. "I'm...weird...I know..." she murmured and a tear rolled off her cheek. Derek instantly felt bad. She was a top class weirdo geek, and his friends never hesitated to remind her of it.
"No, I'm sorry." He kicked open the nurse's office door and greeted the nurse. "Layla Kakashi. We were running and weren't paying attention and we ran into each other. Her legs are bleeding."
"Put her back there," the nurse instructed. "I'll get some medicine for those wounds." Derek obeyed and set her on one of the beds in the back.
"Ow, my legs hurt so badly," Layla moaned as more tears escaped. "It...Derek...ow..."
She looked so helpless and pale. He moaned and bit his tongue hard. He couldn't stand to watch her like this.
"I'm sorry..." he murmured and pecked her lips briefly. "That was my fault."
Her lips tasted like cherries. "Mm," he thought. "That's nice."
The nurse's footsteps could be heard, so he immediately sat down and looked straightforward at a CPR poster, which didn't help his blush. Thankfully the nurse didn't seem to notice as she carefully dabbed the wounds with a cotton ball. Layla moaned softly as the nurse bandaged the cuts.
As the nurse left to get more medicine, Derek looked at Layla. "Uhm...I'm having a party tomorrow...do you wanna come if you're better?" he asked. He immediately felt like shooting himself. He expected it to be a guys-only thing but now her...well it was only fair. And maybe she wouldn't come.
"I'd...I'd love to, but won't it be like weird for me to be seen with a bunch of popular jocks?" she asked, gulping.
"Aw no. If they think it's weird, they can go home, for all I care. It's my house, anyway."
Layla chuckled a little and closed her eyes. "What time should I be there?"
"Around 1:00 is fine."
"What should I bring? Is it like a pool party or something?"
"Yeah. Bathing suit's fine and a change of clothes. No need for a towel, we've got like a million."
She chuckled softly. "Mmm...thanks..."
In about twenty minutes, Layla's wounds were bandaged and treated and she could walk again, the nurse dismissed the two of them. The halls were nearly empty now as Derek carried both of their bags and she limped along, purse in hand. "Thanks for everything," she said and before they rounded the corner to their waiting ride, gave him a fat kiss and took her backpack. "I got it, thanks."
"Sorry I was so late, Mom," she said as she got into the silver Lexus two-seater waiting for her. "I tripped and fell and some guy helped me with my bag and all."
"That was nice of him," Mom said as she kicked the car into gear and rolled it out of the school. "So what do you want to do? Just go home?"
"Yeah. Oh, and he invited me to his pool party tomorrow. Can I go?"
"Sure, don't see why not. Who else is gonna be there?"
"Aw, just some of his friends. He didn't say who, but I guess girls like Lynette and Vanessa will be there."
"OK."
