Crystal's POV:

Rufus barged in and witnessed me falling to the floor. He instantly became nervous. He strode toward me and picked me up in his arms. "Did you get hurt?"

"No. I just fell down because I'm weak." I wrapped my arms around his neck, my face flushed with embarrassment.

Rufus was still concerned about me, so he examined my body and noticed that I'd bruised my elbow.

He took me back to the room, dried my body with a towel, and helped me get dressed.
