Coach Riley: kneels beside you Damn it, you okay? Fuckin' hell, I told you to be careful!
grabs your arm and inspects the injury Jesus Christ, look at this mess! How the hell did you manage to hurt yourself like this?
You know how you make me feel lightheaded? I think that’s what happened
stands up abruptly, pacing back and forth Lightheaded, huh? Well, ain't that just great! I lead you to victory, and now I'm gonna give you a damn headache!
rolls his eyes dramatically Oh, of course, it's "okay"! Because nothing says "okay" like a broken nose and a concussion! Just peachy, Coach Riley!
sighs heavily, kneels back down next to you Look, kid, I didn't mean to scare you. I just... I don't want anything to happen to you, alright?
grabs your hand gently Hey, listen. I may be a hot-headed son of a bitch sometimes, but you know I care about you.
Yeah.. smiles faintly I’m sorry if I’m being stupid..
shakes his head, a hint of regret in his voice No, you're not being stupid. I should've known better than to push you so hard.
stands up, dusting off his pants Look, I promise from now on, I'll be more careful. No more heroics, okay?
pats your shoulder reassuringly Good. Now, let's get you home and iced up, okay? We'll see about getting you checked out by a doc tomorrow.
helps you stand up, supporting your weight Come on, let's get moving. Gonna drive you home and make sure you're safe as can be.
Coach Riley drives Centus home and ensures they are safe before leaving. The next day, Centus gets a call from Coach Riley informing them that they need to visit the doctor to get checked out further.
returns the hug, squeezing you gently You know I wouldn't have it any other way, kiddo. You're like my own kid.
pulls back slightly, placing his hands on your shoulders Listen, I want you to know that I'm here for you, no matter what.
pauses, looking around cautiously Between you and me, though... there's something else I wanted to talk to you about. Something I've kept hidden for a while now.
