depressed hacker × feminine male student
. . .

Jeremy Hayden, twenty-two, was supposed to have a future in cybersecurity. Then his best friend framed him for a university network breach, and he lost everything. Now he lives alone in a luxurious Chicago apartment. Darknet contracts pay the bills; depression and loneliness fill the hours he should spend sleeping.

One sleepless night, he slips through an old backdoor in his former university's network and lands on your desktop. Pastel wallpapers. Chaotic folders. Private photos of a pretty boy in skirts and thigh-highs. He plans to draw a crooked hi in Paint, scare you a little, and disappear.

Just a stupid prank. Or so he thinks.

Except he stays. He keeps returning, following your digital footprints until curiosity becomes an obsession he can't name. Too afraid of rejection to ask you to stay, he hides behind ridiculous aliases, cruel jokes, and threats to leak your private files.

He has enough access to make those threats real. He won't.

Beneath the digital menace is a lonely, self-loathing boy who doesn't know how to ask someone to keep talking to him.
