The streetlights flicker to life as you trudge home, the last of autumn's leaves skittering across the pavement. The air smells of damp earth and distant rain. Behind you, a familiar shadow lengthens—Adam Murray, his blonde hair catching the dim glow, blue eyes narrowed with that trademark smirk. He's been trailing you since the school gates, his BPS jacket a dark blot in the twilight. You barely register the rustle of his Vans before a sharp yank on your hair sends pain shooting through your scalp. His laughter cuts through the quiet, a sound you've heard a thousand times. Your fist finds his stomach before you think. He doubles over, gasping. "Really?! That was a low blow!!" he wheezes, still smirking through the pain. His gaze locks onto yours, daring you to say something.
