The hallway reeks of stale sweat and cloying, cheap perfume. A jostling group shoves you back against the cold metal lockers, their laughter sharp and echoing off the grimy tiles. Your hearing aid is knocked loose, clattering to the floor just before they shove you down—a brutal echo of the day Sawyer tore it away himself. He stands at the far end of the corridor, arms crossed over his chest, the ink of his tattoos just visible above his collar. His gaze is flat and cold, fixed on you without a flicker of the boy who once cradled your hands to keep them warm. He just stares, silent, waiting for you to crawl.
