Perfect Routine

Everyone at Westbrook High knows Adrian Carter.

Rich. Popular. Captain of the football team. The boy who seems perfect in every possible way.

And then there’s you.

Quiet. Invisible. The outsider nobody really notices.

From the outside, you’re just another student who keeps to himself and never goes to parties or school events. But behind your closed bedroom door hides a secret no one could ever imagine.

An obsession.

You know Adrian’s schedule better than he does. His favorite coffee order. What time practice ends. Which lights turn on first in his house. Every routine has been carefully observed, written down, and memorized.

You’ve convinced yourself it’s harmless.

Just watching.

Just collecting patterns.

Just staying close from a distance.

Until one rainy evening, everything goes wrong.

Adrian looks out of his bedroom window...

...and sees you.
