* at Kians house *
- Holly's PoV -

I am sitting on the large , red sofa in Kians playroom - type thing , with a cup of tea in my hands .

I'm contemplating for the first time in my life .. Hardly .. About everything that's happened today.

Too much .

" here you go "

Kian walks in with a small plate of cookies and a first-aid box .

"Oh thank you " I grab a cookie off of the plate .

He turns on the Tv and passes me a PlayStation controller .

" how are you keeping ?"Kian glances at me .

" I'm oka-ouch " I groan .

" what's wrong ?"

" I cant eat my cookie " I sigh .

" what do you mean you can't eat your cookie?" He lightly laughs .

" I mean it hurts to open my mouth ...and chew .."

Kian then realises what I mean when I point to my bruise cheeks / burst lip .

" right im sorry "he quickly logs into his Fifa15 game and turns all attention to me

" here then " he smashed his hand on the cookie and laughs as it breaks into crumbs , he hands me the plate and chuckles .

" now you can swallow them !"

He moves closer to me and opens the first aid box .

He emptied everything out onto the coffee table infront of us .

"This may hurt a little"

he pulls out and shakes the disinfectant before looking at me .

" if it hurts squeeze my hand " he grabs my hand lightly and smiles.

I close my eyes and mouth and prepare for him to spray it on different areas of my face .

He does so and I squeeze my eyes shut, trying to not let the tears escape them and I tightly squeeze his hand .

I open my eyes back up to see slight worry in his eyes .

" I'm fine " I wipe away any obvious tears with my finger .

He moves closer and grabs a tissue and some cream for the bruises .

He gently places his left hand on the side of my head to get a good grip of my head and moves closer to me .

I look away and frown because of the pain .

He pulls my head back up and stares at me , sympathetically smiling .

" you'll be okay " he whispers .

"W-what if I'm not ?" I slightly whimper .

" shhh please "
I close my eyes and breathe slowly , then nod for him to continue .

He moves closer and begins to lightly dab my face , just as he finishes I look at him .

Small tears trickling down my face .

He stares at me without a word .

" please , I promise" he sighs ,

" sorry sorry I know "
I squeeze my eyes shut so that the tears can stop .

I look up at Kian , he looks so sad .

He stops what he is doing and weakly smiles .

" just lean back and rest your head on those pillows and play the PS3 if you want " he leans towards me slightly and smiles again .

" thanks " I lay down and rest my head .

" do you have enough room ?"

" yeah thanks don't worry about me " he lays down at the opposite end of the sofa and tangled his legs in mine .

I flicker my eyes to the legs then back to the PS3 , I was blushing but I also had an awkward facial expression appear , I tell myself to stop thinking about it and press the start button for the match to begin .
