( BLOODY NOSE ) 
by buckys-fossils

Chemistry couldn't have been any more boring than it is now. The teacher continued to ramble on, as if any student even dared to acknowledge or pay the least bit of attention to the pointless lesson.

You sighed in defeat, leaning your head against the palm of your hand, looking out into the distance. To your surprise, the only thing that was actually standing in your view, was the infamous jock-head Reggie Mantle. Some would say he was completely full of himself, that he was just this brainless yet insanely hot teenager, but for some reason, you knew that there had to at least be more to him than your average high school jock/football player.

Without a doubt, he was incredibly attractive. There were definitely times where you considered growing up the courage to strike a conversation with him and hopefully start a friendship of some sort. Who knows, maybe that would perhaps lead up to a relationship. Except, the only problem here?

He's completely out of your league.

You hated to think so negatively about that, but you knew that it was true unfortunately.

Archie claimed that he's really not as mean as he looks. You remembered laughing your ass off after he told you that since you knew how Reggie would always bully Jughead, thus showing his true colors.

Mantle the Magnificent being nice?

Totally impossible.

Abruptly, Kevin scoffed and nudged your elbow, causing you to come out of the trance you'd been stuck in for the past few minutes.

"Hey, are you okay? You look...pale."

"Pale?" you echoed. "I mean, I feel fine."

He sighed and shook his head. "I don't know, you look kind of sick to me," he said worryingly. "Do you need to go to the nurses' office?"

You chuckled, "Kev, I'm fine, okay? I don't think I need to go—"

Before you finished your sentence, a single droplet of blood fell from your nose. Immediately, your eyes widened in horror and looked down, which caused even more blood to come out. Kevin gasped and panicked as he quickly rushed away to grab some tissues for you.

"O-Oh god, you're bleeding everywhere, Y/N!" he shrieked, causing the entire class, including Reggie, to turn around.

"What is going on back there?!" yelled the teacher. "Are the two of you goofing around again?!"

Kevin gagged, waving him off. "No! She's bleeding from her nose!"

"Kevin, you really don't need to yell in my ear, okay? I'm literally right next to you." You rolled your eyes, continuing to squeeze your nose back with the tissue.

Reggie's eyebrows furrowed in confusion as he glanced at you with your nose bleeding. He was mainly laughing at Kevin more rather than he was at you. In fact, he actually even felt bad for you. Even though the two of you have never spoken to each other, he was still intrigued to at least help you out rather than Kevin since he looked like he was ready to either throw up or faint at any second by now.

Unexpectedly, Kevin started to dry heave, clutching his chest. He shook his head, "I think I'm going to be sick." And off he went into the restroom.

Reggie rolled his eyes, and decided to rush over to your seat on the other side of the classroom. By now, the entire class' attention was on the both of you. He handed you another tissue and tossed the other one in the trash can, continuing to stand by your side with the box of tissues.
