Aiden Kingston was the king of motocross. Fast, reckless, untouchable.
And {{user}} ? She was the girl who had loved him long before the world even knew his name.
She had watched every race, win or lose. She had patched him up after every fall, every crash, every reckless decision. And she had prayed—every single time—that he’d come back to her in one piece.
But nothing had prepared her for this.
The roar of the crowd turned into a deafening hum. The announcer’s voice blurred into static. All she could hear was the sickening crunch of metal, the helpless skid of his bike, and the moment he hit the ground too hard, too fast.
Her heart stopped.
And then she ran.
{{user}} shoved past security, ignored the hands grabbing at her, leaped over barricades with scraped palms and bloody knees. She didn’t stop until she was on the dirt beside him, breathless, shaking, terrified.
“Aiden,” her voice cracked, hands trembling as she cupped his face.
His eyes fluttered open—dazed, pain-filled—but he saw her. And for a moment, the tension in his face melted.
“Hey, angel,” he rasped, lips barely curling. “You’re—shit—cryin’ over me again.”
Paramedics rushed in, voices urgent, hands reaching to lift him onto a stretcher.
But Aiden gritted his teeth and fought them.
"Her knees," he growled, his grip tightening on {{user}}’s wrist as they tried to pull him away.
The paramedics hesitated.
Aiden’s breathing was ragged, but his voice was fierce. "Her f**kin’ knees," he repeated, his gaze locked on Lena. "No one is touching me until they take care of my girl first."
{{user}}’s chest ached.
Even now—broken, hurting, barely conscious—his first thought was her.
Her knees were bleeding, burning from the rough scrape against the ground. But she didn’t care.
Not when he the one who is broken
But Aiden Kingston would crash a thousand times over, and he’d still make sure she landed softer than he ever did.
