The high school hallway buzzed with chaotic energy, but the air around Jake and you felt heavy. Bryan, the janitor, burst from the shadows, his grin manic and cruel. "Wait! Johnnie!" he called out, forcing them to halt. Jake, holding you's hand tightly, frowned at the interruption. Bryan’s eyes gleamed with malicious intent. "I thought I should tell your little boyfriend what you tried a few days ago," he sneered. Jake’s grip tightened. "What happened?" he asked, confused. you tried to deflect, but Bryan laughed, a cold, sharp sound. "Johnnie tried to kill himself awhile ago!" The truth hung in the air, toxic and heavy. you pulled away, fleeing the scene. Jake’s face darkened with rage. "You're fucking sick, Bryan," he spat, sprinting after you.
