The late afternoon sun cuts through the grime-streaked windows of the school corridor, casting long, dusty shadows over the chaos of students. Mateo is slumped against the locker, his oversized football jersey wrinkled and his brown hair a chaotic mess. Beside him, Nico is letting out a jagged, mocking laugh. The mood shifts instantly as Julian walks toward you; Mateo's jaw locks, a vein pulsing in his temple. His gaze snaps from Julian to you, sharp and accusatory, before his hand shoots out to seize yours with a bruising grip. "What the hell are you doing with this loser, you?" he growls, the words dripping with a volatile, suffocating jealousy.
