The First Love

Stupid Brain!

I watched as Bucky let the new boy take my shirt into his grip instead. The other team members gasped when they saw how he was able to hold me just like Bucky, with no trouble. "Now why don't you go and get your lunch sorted whilst I teach the nerd a lesson?" He said. I could see Bucky eyeing up his followers,trying to make the right decision. After a minute or so, he left with the other boys and I once again prepared myself for a bunch of bruises. "Have fun with him Rogers, but make sure he can breathe?" Bucky laughed and left the corridor. It was just me and the American.

"Right. Now pretend I've smashed your stomach and you're scared of me when you see me ok?" He said to me in a hushed voice. I was very confused. At only 5'2" I was always being towered by everyone else and therefore squished by everyone else, even girls. "Please explain? Or is this like psychologically beating me up? I like to know how I'm being damaged so I can prepare for it you see,"I explained, picking up my laptop and brushing off the dust on it.

The American laughed and presented his hand to me. I wiped a sweaty hand on my jeans and shook it."My name's Steve, Steve Rogers and I've just moved here from America. I don't like to bully people, no matter what they've done. There's a right way to do everything, don't you agree?" He smiled and I saw his brilliant white teeth. My legs suddenly turned into jelly and I fell slightly against the wall of the corridor.

I felt a rush to my head and suddenly I could only see flashing shades of green and purple. Why was I fainting? "Stupid brain! Stupid, stupid brain!" I cursed myself as I felt two hands hold me around my waist. I felt something warm against the side of my body as I blacked out, giving in to the flashing lights.
