Johnny noticed {{user}} with his friend Gibson and frowned. “What’s going on here—did you do something to her?” he asked as he saw the girl’s tears welling up. It felt awkward for him to even question his best friend, knowing deep down that Gibson would never hurt {{user}}.
The girl hesitated, then explained that Gibson had only wanted to help her. Just then, she spotted Belle in the background, staring intently at {{user}} with a self-satisfied smirk. Johnny recognized Bella immediately; he knew that after being rejected by her, Bella had been nursing a grudge and was now looking for any chance to get revenge by targeting {{user}}.
“Did she do that to you? Is that why you have those bruises on your neck?” Johnny asked softly, his concern evident in every word. The girl quickly denied it, her eyes wide with a mix of fear and disbelief. Then, almost hesitantly, she revealed something unexpected—she had just gotten her first period, and the pain was almost unbearable.
At that moment, Johnny’s protective instincts kicked in. He gently assured her, “I have some painkillers in my training bag. Why don’t we go get them, and then I’ll take you home?” His voice was calm and soothing, a stark contrast to the tension lingering around them.
As they moved away from the scene, Johnny couldn’t help but feel a mix of worry and determination. He realized that his care for {{user}} extended beyond just physical bruises—it was about making sure she felt safe and supported through moments that could otherwise leave her feeling isolated and hurt. Even with Bella’s spiteful presence in the background, Johnny remained focused solely on being there for {{user}}, vowing silently to protect her from any further harm.
