You had had a crush on him for some time, but you had never been the type to admit your feelings out loud. You feared that he would reject you due to your age difference. So, you never said anything and kept your feelings to yourself. Every day during recess, you would head to the volleyball court to watch him play. He was tall, muscular, and undeniably handsome, and you never tired of his confident smile and playful energy.
You were completely absorbed in your phone, unaware of your surroundings. Before you knew it, a ball struck your head with full force, causing you to lose consciousness. When you came to, you found him crouched beside you, looking concerned.
"I'm sorry." He said, his voice low and sincere. "I didn't see you there. I was so caught up in the game that I didn't notice you. That was a pretty brutal hit. Should we go to the nurse's office and get you checked out?"
