he hushed him softly. "we can wash it out.. i do t know if you have a concussion.."

[peridot.]

"Is it normal to feel really tired if you have a concussion...?" He asked softly, walking slowly beside the other. When the nurse's office came into view, he made a happy noise, letting out a relieved sigh.

[dannychan]

he blinked. "i think so.."

[peridot.]

He made a soft noise and mumbled, sighing, "Damn it, I really wanted to get ice cream.." When they reached the nurse's office, a short but nice looking lady came out, and her eyes widened as she saw them, "Oh my gosh, what happened?"

[dannychan]

he was about to speak before the nurse spoke. "bullies." he said simply. lthey kicked him in the head and it's possible he has a concussion.."

She frowned and said softly, helping Richie to the small table in the white office, tilting his head up and inspecting his wound, "I'm so sorry honey..." Richie blushed a bit at this - he was used to insulting names like Trashmouth, and it wasn't like his Mom ever called him sweet things, so he was caught off guard. After a few minutes, the nurse mumbled as she began to wipe the blood from the side of the boy's head, "I don't believe he actually has a concussion, but they definitely knocked him around. You'll probably need to take it easy for at least today. Would you like me to call your Mother?" Richie's eyes widened, and he quickly shook his head, saying softly, "Oh, hell no."

[dannychan]

he shook his head quickly. "you can't.. call her.."

[peridot.]

The nurse blinked and frowned slightly, saying softly as she looked at Richie with worry, "Uhm... alright. Is there anybody I can contact for you..?" Richie seemed to shift uncomfortably, and he shook his head, looking down.

[dannychan]

he hesitated and shook his head. "not that would be good for him." he said quietly. "i mean.. i could take him to my place but.."

He wrapped an arm around the other, mostly for support, since his head was still swimming. He mumbled, his eyes drooping a bit, "Ugh, now I have blood all clumped in my hair."
