Roll Call
The first time he noticed who Sherlock was, it was during Math class; the teacher was doing a roll call and for the first time since the start of the school year, when he read the name Sherlock Holmes there was an answer.
As one, the entire class turned to look at the person who answered and the only thing Jim could do was stare; he even stopped breathing for a minute or two. The person who answered was simply stunning. The curly hair that partially hid those intelligent, beautiful eyes, the black circles under his eyes, his long beautiful fingers, the clothes he chose to wear, everything showed just how perfect Sherlock was.
Then, Jim had to turn so that he paid attention to the teacher, but he could not get Sherlock out of his mind. He tried to find Sherlock in his other classes for the rest of the day but did not succeed; then, he overheard a conversation between two teachers and his heart stopped.
"Yes, that poor boy is in the hospital again, had to be taken there in an ambulance."
"I cannot understand why they let him attend school when he is a drug addict."
"You don't know? It's not that he is a drug addict, he was forcefully injected with an overdose by someone, the police found him before the start of the classes. The assailant was never caught, but that experience left him with nightmares; he did not faint from an overdose but a lack of sleep."
"Really? I did not know."
Jim did not hear the rest of the conversation but he did not need to; he knew who they were talking about and the thought of someone hurting that angel; it was more than he could bear. A fierce determination could be seen in his eyes; he would protect this angel no matter the cost; even from himself if need be.
