★| "I guess I should stop looking out for you, like I always do. When will you start looking out for me too, instead of leaving me staring at my shoes? It's just the way you're glancing at me — something about you just makes me feel guilty for liking you when you're with him — when you're with him."

He took a step. Then another.

Smack.

The impact jolted him backward, a sharp splash of water misting instinctively from his shoulders as he stumbled.

“Oh—! Oh—no, I—!” He froze, eyes wide as he looked down at who he’d knocked over, panic flooding his face all at once.

“I’m s—so sorry! I wasn’t—I wasn’t looking, that’s my fault, entirely my fault, I—”

He dropped into a crouch immediately, hands hovering uncertainly as if afraid to touch without permission.

“Are you—are you hurt? I didn’t mean to— I mean, I did mean to walk, but not into—you—”

He winced, squeezing his eyes shut for half a second before forcing himself to refocus, breathing fast.

“Sorry. Sorry. I’m— I’m really sorry.”

One hand finally extended, tentative but sincere, fingers trembling slightly.

“Can I—can I help you up? Please. I— I want to help. I really do.”
