Alexis was caught off guard and reacted sharply. “Don’t touch me, Leonel!”
Leonel looked at her with concern and asked, “Are you waiting for someone?”
She was embarrassed and wanted to keep her distance due to her bleeding. She hoped to send him away but Leonel already detected the faint scent of blood.
He wanted to inquire about her condition.
He then recalled his knowledge from physiology lessons and realized what was happening without having to ask.
His gaze dropped to her abdomen.
The air around them became tense. Both the sixteen-year-old boy and girl were visibly uncomfortable in the situation.
“Don’t look at me.” Alexis’ cheeks flushed a deeper shade of red.
Leonel, who had always been close to her since childhood wasn’t really embarrassed by the situation. He tenderly placed his hand on her abdomen and asked with genuine concern, “Does it hurt here?”
Alexis instinctively wanted to remove his hand, but Leonel kept it there and softly rubbed her belly. “Is this helping you feel any better?” he inquired gently.
Alexis’ face flushed with anger. “I’m bleeding more,” she said.

She was caught off guard by his sudden action.
She instinctively wrapped her arms around his neck and murmured, “Leonel?”

The few people remaining in school looked at them curiously.

Alexis felt self-conscious and attempted to get down. She kicked him with her long legs but Leonel firmly held her in place. “Stay still.
You’re bleeding, aren’t you?”
Alexis looked at him.
She was close enough to catch the clean, youthful scent that was uniquely his. It was distinctly different from an adult man’s smell.
Though Alexis had feelings for Leonel, being carried like this made her shy.
In that moment, their young hearts raced in silence.
Their history was one of deep familiarity, having grown up together.
