The wheels on the bus

By the time I got to the bus stop the bus was already there and loaded and about to close it's doors. I started to run to catch it before it pulled away. I got to the edge of the curb at the corner and my toe caught the curb and it was like it was slow motion and my whole life passed before my eyes. My book bag flew out of my hands as all it's contents were flying out of the open zipper, my hands went out in front of me and as I hit the sidewalk I slid on my palms and my knees. Then there was a slight moment of silence before I heard the laughing, whistling and cheering coming from the full bus that witnessed this display of my talent for clumsiness. I stayed down for a second hoping I was dreaming but the stinging on my palms and knees quickly broke me out of the fog. I was trying to pick up all my books and papers as I heard a loud commotion on the bus then total silence. About that time I heard the voice of an angel approaching saying "Are you ok sweetie?"

I looked up to see the cutest and most popular boy in my school Niall Horan.

"Yeah I just feel like an idiot is all" I said as I blushed a crimson red.

"Don't worry about them they are all heartless bastards" Niall said as he bent down to help pick up my papers. After everything was picked up he said "let me see your hands". I held up my palms and he gently grabbed my wrists and proceeded to blow cool air on my raspberry palms. A shiver went down my spine as a flock of butterflies erupted into flight in my stomach. I didn't think it possible but I blushed even more.

"Can you stand?" Niall asked

"I think so I replied "

I looked down and saw the knees of my tights were gone and I had raspberries on my knees too. Just great I am scarred for life both physically and mentally.

"What's your name sweetie?"

"Rhylie" I said quite as a mouse.

"What a pretty name for a pretty girl" Niall said as he smiled at me.

"Come on you can sit next to me till we get to school then I will take you to the nurse to get cleaned up"

We walked on the bus and everybody was glaring at me not because I'm a clumsy idiot, but because I was being led by Niall to my seat as he held my wrists in his hands.
