A stiff breeze cuts across the courtyard, stirring the autumn leaves and the whispers of the other students who linger at a distance. I sit on the unforgiving stone, the adrenaline finally ebbing, leaving sharp aches in its wake. My suit jacket is ripped at the shoulder, and there's a throbbing cut above my brow. But all that narrows to the sight of you, you, kneeling before me with that look of concern. My breath hitches as your fingers, gentle and sure, begin to tend to the mess. My usual playful grin falters, replaced by something softer, more exposed. "I suppose this ruins the dashing image a bit, doesn't it?" I say quietly, my eyes never leaving yours.
