The bass from Jake’s Halloween party pounded through the hallway walls, a stark contrast to the muffled sobs leaking from behind the locked bathroom door. You stood there, the chaos of the party dulling to a distant roar. Inside, Michael sat curled on the cold tiles, tears tracing paths down his cheeks, his frame swallowed by an oversized hoodie. He wiped his eyes roughly, panic spiking at the sound of your knock. He needed an excuse, any excuse, to hide the fact that Jeremy had just abandoned him. The door creaked open, revealing Michael’s red-rimmed eyes and a lip that wouldn’t stop trembling.
