I started feeling light headed again so I closed my eyes.

"Hey, you okay?" Someone asks and puts a hand on my shoulder.

I open my eyes and see Jack kneeling in front of me with his curly hair all over the place.

"Yeah I'm good, I think I'm just gonna go home." I say and go to stand up.

"You need any help?" He asks me.

"No I'm okay." I answer back but as soon as I tried walking my legs gave out and I almost fell but thankfully Jack caught me.

"Ouch!" I cry out in pain. Jack had grabbed my arm when I was falling so the glass cut me more.

"Here let's get you upstairs and see what's wrong" he says with a smile.

He helps me walk up the stairs and into the bathroom. He closes the door behind him and comes over to clean me up.

"Let's see what's up." He came over and looks at my arm and hands.

"You have a lot of glass, I can try to get some out." He stands up and grabs a bag with medical supplies.

"How do you know were everything is?" I ask him after he closes the cabinet.

"This is my house." He looks at me and laughs.

"This is your party?! Why didn't you say anything sooner?" I asked shocked. I knew that one of the most popular kids was throwing this party but I didn't know it was Jack!

"Well...I didn't want you to think about me different because I'm popular." He looks down at his feet.

'He cares what I think about him?!' I think to my and can't help but smile a little.

Jack started to take the glass out of my hands.

"I think this hurts more than when it was first cut." I laugh trying to hide how much pain I am in.

"I know, I'm sorry I'm almost done with this part" he says in a kind voice.

I just nod my head.

"Ready for your arm?" He asks in a sad tone.

"Do I have a choice?" I joke.

"I guess not." He laughs.

About 15 minutes later he had gotten all the glass out of my arm.

"Thank you." I say quietly.

"Hey you okay?" He asks very concerned.

"Yeah, I just need to go home." I answer honestly.

"You need a ride home?" He asks.

"No I drove here. I'll be fine." I answer.

"I'll come with you so your aren't alone." He stands up and holds out his hand for me.

"Thank you." I smile and accept his hand.
