You Get Hurt

Steve - You were going to meet Steve at work so that the two of you could go out for dinner. When you walked into the shop you failed to notice the stacks of tapes on the floor and comically tripped over them. It was seriously like a scene from one of those old cartoons and you even felt like you had stars dancing round you head when you landed on the floor. Hearing the loud thud, both Robin and Steve came running to the front of the shop where Steve found you on a heap on the floor. Robin was laughing and ta first so was Steve until he began to worry that you might actually be hurt. For the rest of the night you and Steve stayed seated on his sofa at home, eating icecream and watching tv while Steve fussed over you, convinced that you could die any second.

Eddie - Your parents were out of town and so you obviously decided to invite Eddie over. Deciding that he could do with a proper home cooked meal, you were currently attempting to make him some dinner. That was until you cut open your hand with a knife whilst trying to chop up some sort of green vegetable (cucumber? broccoli? Celery?). You casually walked into the living room where Eddie was seated, holding your bleeding hand to your chest. You stated that you think you might need to go to hospital and as soon as he saw all the blood he screamed. His eyes comically jumped out of his head as he stumbled his way over the sofa towards you. He was so worried it was sweet and he immediately drove you to the hospital to get some help. The whole time he was sat there telling you jokes and being his normal goofy self to distract you from all the pain you were in. He also vowed that he would never let you near a knife again.

Max - You were messing around on Max's skateboard when you fell off. Your wrist was already swollen and sore from the fall but you tried to hide it the whole time you were with max because you knew she would be mad if she found out you were messing with her skateboard again. She eventually noticed when you went to pick up the remote for the tv an you winced. She demanded to see your wrist and when she did she let out a massive sigh. She was like a mother disappointed with their toddler but was still really kind and gentle. You could tell she was annoyed but she didn't like seeing you hurt. 

Peter - You and Peter were sat in your dads office. Your head was currently laid on his lap while you read a book, Peter was playing with your hair and just watching you (but not in a creepy way). You were turning the page when you got a paper cut. You muttered shit as blood pooled from the tip of your finger. Peter, seeing this, leapt up and disappeared. You were worried that he was squeamish or something and the sight of your blood repulsed him but he returned a few minutes later with a plaster. Carefully taking your hand in his, he wrapped up the wound before placing a little kiss on your bandaged up finger. He then proceeded to read you book to you so that you could avoid further injuries.

Robin - You were walking and just straight up fell on the floor. Like you tripped over nothing. Robin seeing this tried to grab out and catch you like a good girlfriend would but instead ended up falling down with you. The two of you were sat in a massive heap on the floor laughing when your ankle started to hurt. You'd twisted it. When you told Robin she started freaking out unsure what to do. She eventually called Steve to come and drive you both home because you couldn't walk and she was so worried, it was adorable.

Will - You fell down the stairs again except this time you'd cut your head pretty bad. Calling Will you asked if he could come over and give you a cuddle to make you feel better. Jonathan dropped hi off ten minutes late and the two of you laid curled up in bed while he made fun of you for being a clumsy idiot.

Lucas - You were watching Lucas play basketball at school when all of a sudden one the balls came flying directly at your head. It hurt like hell and everyone, even you, started to laugh. Lucas wasn't laughing though, he was actually yelling at everyone to shut up while he came rushing to your side. You kept telling him that you were fine but he continued to insist that it was his fault and it must have really hurt. You didn't mind too much though because he took your for ice-cream after practice as an apology.

Mike - He threw a dice at your eye and it hurt. It really hurt. You were playing D&D in his basement and things were quite intense. He rolled the dice and they bounced off Dustin's glass he was drinking from and into your eye. Mike was really concerned and kept blaming Dustin for putting his cup there. You were laughing through the tears though so that's good.

Dustin - You slightly electrocuted yourself whilst working on one of your projects. When Dustin found out he banned you from doing any more experimenting for the rest of the week and demanded that the two of you do something more relaxing like play some Nintendo. 

Nancy - You got hit by a car whilst trying to take a picture for the school newspaper. It wasn't too serious or anything, you just woke up in hospital with a concussion. You were lucky that it was an elderly woman driving and she wasn't going too fast otherwise you'd have probably died or something. Instead you had a sore ankle, head and a Nancy sat by your side. She would not leave you alone even when you were released from hospital. She even insisted crossing the road every with you after the accident.

Jonathan - Jonathan got called to the school office during biology. He was confused until he found you sat there waiting for him. Turns out you'd fallen and gotten injured during gym and they needed for someone to take you home. With both of your parents being at work you asked if Jonathan could take you home and the school eventually agreed. The two of you spent the rest on the day sleeping in bed together.
