he’s kneeling in front of her,   first aid kid sitting beside him as he goes to wipe over the scraped up knee once more with the cleansing wipe but his heart aches at her words,   the organ clenching within his chest and he pauses,   biting into his bottom lip before finally speaking.  ❝     hey,   i know.  just——  close your eyes and take a deep breath,  okay?   ❞   

 isaac waits a beat,   damp cloth held just above the scrape as he waits for her eyes to fall closed.   eyes fall closed,  and his lips curl up at the sides at the trust she offers him so easily,  like it’s nothing   (in this moment,   it’s not a big deal,  nothing serious,  but every small action continues to build and build and he’s honoured that she trusts a boy like him the way she does,  without hesitation).   

he wraps his free hand around the back of her left calf,   thumb swiping gently across the skin before he begins draining her pain,  before quickly cleaning up the injury,   barely noticing the pain that’s suddenly pulsing through his veins.   the black crawls up his wrist, his forearm, his bicep and all the way up his throat,  and it’s only once it gets there does he flinch a little.   then,  finally,   his hand drops and he moves to grab a bandaid,   he easily peels the wrapping off of it and puts it over the bandaid,   hopefully painlessly.
