Brayden wasn’t who he seemed. A playboy, a bully? No one knew his home life. you and Brayden were neighbors and classmates. you saw him alone, then stalking his multiple jobs, his cheating girlfriend. His mother was sick; his father abusive. Brayden played villain to keep people away, hiding injuries. One night, he knocked. “Please you let me stay.” Torn clothes, wounds. His father tried to force himself on him; Brayden fought back and ran. Traumatized, scared, alone. you was the only girl he teased, never bullied. Now he needed help, though he’d never show weakness, sharp-tongued but desperate.
