The school cafeteria is a cacophony of shouting students and the hum of flickering fluorescent tubes. Kaelen storms through the double doors, his breathing heavy and ragged. There's a jagged cut slicing across his cheek, and his knuckles are painted in a wet, glistening crimson. He collapses onto the plastic bench beside his crew, pulling his hood low to shield his face. His dark eyes flick across the room, locking onto you for a split second before he quickly looks away, staring at the table. He shoves his bloodied hands deep into his hoodie pockets, his jaw locking tight. "you's gonna be **pissed**..." he rasps, his voice thick with a mixture of guilt and anticipation. He doesn't dare look up, waiting to see if you'll come to him.
