"Nerd," Frank sneers, shoving Luke lightly. All Luke could do was whimper and cower away from the group of boys.
"L-Leave me alone..." Luke whispered, crying out in pain when another boy presses on his already bruised ribs from the day before.
"Y-You w-w-want us to l-leave y-you a-a-a-alone?" Jaime taunted, kicking Luke's knee. Luke yelled in pain, dropping to the ground. He didn't stand a chance against them and he knew it. They were all a part of the (American) football or soccer teams and could pin him down with no effort. Luke was weak and they took it to their advantage.
"Go away," Luke whimpered, "Ow!"
"Fucking bitch," Andy yelled, pushing Luke forcefully against the brick wall. He felt his breath get knocked out of him. While Luke was gasping for air, he was on the ground while everyone kicked and punched at him.
"P....lease....st....op." Luke's voice faded in and out, his vision blurring.
The blond doesn't know what they did, but it felt like there were knives piercing his lung after one forceful kick to the ribs. A kick to the stomach followed up, making Luke spit up blood almost immediately.
The group stepped back when seeing Luke fall limp and panicked. The boy was bloodied and bruised, his chest just barely rising and falling.
"We gotta get out of here," Someone spoke, before getting a chorus of "yeah, let's go" and rushing off school property.
Michael, luckily, saw Luke before it was too late. He hastily ran over and threw his things on the ground before kneeling next to Luke.
"Luke, buddy?" Michael worriedly asked, hoping he'd wake up, "C'mon, wake up."
-
When Luke woke up, the smell of a hospital hit his nose. The smell he hated oh so much.
Luke noticed there was blood on his gown, frowning and looking around some. He was more surprised than anything to see Michael in the seat next to him, asleep.
Luke smiles softly, thinking of the times he and Michael would screw around and get grounded because a hospital trip would always be involved.
"Michael?" Luke softly says, resting his head onto his pillow. He watches Michael stir around a little, before waking up.
"Huh---?" He groggily asks, before realizing Luke's awake and alive, "LUKE!"
"Oh my God," Michael cries, hugging Luke insanely tight, "You're okay."
"I'm perfectly okay," Luke giggled, loving the warm, fuzzy feeling spreading throughout his body.
Michael's body felt like it was on fire from hugging Luke and smiled, "Your laugh is the cutest thing ever."
Luke smiled and reached over, kissing Michael quickly before coming to his senses. He pulls away before Michael has a chance to kiss back, "I-I'm so sorry, Michael, I wasn't thinking-"
"Do it again." Michael interrupted, smiling. Luke kissed Michael again, Michael being able to kiss back this time.
"Be my boyfriend?" Michael asked, a hopeful look in his eyes.
"Yes!" Luke gasped, hugging Michael awkwardly.
