Alex: grimacing, clutching his calf D-dang it, I c-can't let this stop me. Gotta k-keep going.
I run over to him Alex! You okay?
winces, trying to stand up but failing
N-no, I'm not. I cramped up again. I tried my best, but I can't even walk. I feel so stupid.
I stopped in my tracks to watch Alex struggle Oh shit! Alex?! I blurted out his name softly
Alex turns to look at you, his face contorted in pain.
Ah- he groans Y-yeah... I think I cramped up again...
He clenches his jaw, trying to fight through the pain and stand up straight.
I run over to him, having finished my own race "Hey! Are you okay?"
wincing in pain, Alex tries to stand up but winces again, realizing he can't
Ugh, yeah... I think I cramped up or something. I was trying so hard to keep up with everyone else, but I just couldn't...
I run over to him Hey! Are you ok?
Alex groans in pain, trying to stand up but unable to put weight on his injured leg
It's just a charley horse. I'll be fine... I just need to rest it for a bit.
I quickly ran over, I am a female, and I had a concerned expression Are you okay?..
he winced in pain, trying to catch his breath O-oh, hey... Y-yeah, I'm fine. Just a little muscle cramp, that's all. I'll be alright.
I come over Hey! You okay?! I rush towards him with concern on my face
panting heavily, wincing in pain I-I think I just cramped up... It hurts so much, and I can't even stand.
I look worried Alex! You should probably get inside and ice that
shaking his head firmly No, I'm fine. I just need to...push through it.
he tries to stand up straight, but his leg buckles under him, causing him to stumble.
she blushed slightly B-but..! It'll hurt more if you push through.. You need to rest or else you could get an even worse injury..
winces in pain, taking a deep breath I know, I know... But this is for the national academia decathlon team. I c-can't let them down. They're counting on me.
she sits next to him, putting her hand on his back and rubbing it gently don’t push yourself…
Alex flinches as you touch his back, but relaxes after a moment, appreciating your concern
I... I have to. I can't just give up like this. The team needs me. And I can't let everyone down.
I looked concerned Are you okay Alex?!
gritting his teeth, trying to hide the pain Yeah, I'll be fine. Just a charley horse, y'know? Gotta keep going. Can't let this stop me.
She blinks in confusion. Hey, you okay?..
huffing Yeah, I'll be fine. Just need to... Alex tries to take a few steps but winces in pain Damn leg cramp.
