Accident - Jax & Caleb

Description: (a prompt I randomly came up with on my way to Hobby Lobby with my mom lol) I was rushing to school on my bike because I was late and I accidentally ran into you, oh my god are you okay?? (Around 4600 words)

Jax's POV

I was peacefully walking to school, enjoying the feel of the cool breeze and the warmth of the sun shining on my face. I'm headed to school during first hour because there was a mess up in scheduling so I don't need to go to school for the first hour of the day. I like it because I get more sleep but also because that means there isn't a crowd of people and cars I have to walk through to get to school. It's nice.

From behind me suddenly I heard really fast like... pedaling. And someone panting. I stopped walking and turned around, but all I saw was a flash of a red bike, a tire, a boy's shoulder, then the ground. After that, my head hurt from getting hit on the sidewalk and my wrist had a shooting pain running through it and up half of my arm.

I groaned and opened my eyes, at first squinting from the sun but then I opened them fully. The boy was getting himself off of the ground while I stayed laying on my back in lots of pain. After he got up, he quickly scooted over to me and that's when I noticed it.

I just got run over by my fucking crush.

Caleb's POV

"Oh my God, I am so sorry! Are you okay?"

He slowly shook his head, "My... wrist."

"Shit, which one?"

He pointed his head towards his right arm. Oh no.

I can tell from his uniform that he is from my school. He's going to tell the principal and get me in trouble...

"Here," I said moving so I could push him up, "try to get up."

With my help, he sat up but he winced as his wrist moved with his arm.

"Can you move any part of your arm?"

He moved his shoulder and elbow a little and winced, "Everywhere but my wrist, but it hurts."

"Shit. Um... give me a minute."

I stood up and got my phone out. I went into my contacts and clicked on Dylan. He's more likely to skip class than any of my other friends.

"Pick up... pick up..."

"Sup?"

"Dylan, this is urgent, where are you right now?"

"Being yelled at by Mr. Frank for answering my phone in class. What's up?"

I rolled my eyes, "Can you come pick me and someone else up and take us to the hospital?"

"Sure, man, where are you?"

I could hear Mr. Frank yelling in the background but chose to ignore it, "Sidewalk on main street north of the school. You'll see us. Thanks, man."

I hung up then crouched down by the boy again, "My friend is gonna come pick us up so I can get you to the hospital, okay? I'm gonna need you to stand up."

He nodded and accepted my help to lift him up using his left arm.

I carefully took his bag off of his back and put it on mine, "So what's your name?"

He laughed a little, "We've been in the same grade our whole lives, Caleb. We're in all the same classes..."

I laughed sheepishly, "Sorry."

"It's okay. My name is Jax."

"Jax. Cool name. I'm super sorry for hitting you, again. I was in a rush because I was super late to first hour... which I guess made the situation worse."
