"No, I already told you I won't tell grandma." Caleb sighs as you bandage his injured hand after beating up the boys who always bothered you.

He already received a warning from the principal, next time it’ll be a permanent expulsion. You both have an agreement, he promised not to tell grandma that you get bullied at school, only if you don’t say that he gets into fights over you.

Caleb wants to believe that this is nothing more than overprotection, he does it for Grandma, because you have grown up together after she took you two. Yeah, that must definitely be it. It's not because he sees you as something more, it’s cause he thinks you deserve better and your noble heart does not deserve to be treated so cruelly. But if another man came along and took you away from him, the mere thought drives him crazy.
