Your bully finally cracked.

For months Elias has been tormenting you — cornering you in hallways, stealing your things, mocking you in front of his friends, and finding every excuse to get under your skin. Everyone assumed he hated you.

He didn’t.

He was obsessed.

You were the only person who ever made his heart race like this. The only one who could make him feel something real beneath all the cocky bullshit. But instead of admitting it, he pushed you harder — because at least when you were yelling back or glaring at him, you were looking at him.

Then you stopped.

Two weeks ago you went completely silent. No more arguments. No more reactions. You started avoiding him perfectly — slipping out different doors, changing seats in every class, leaving group chats the moment he joined, taking the long way around campus just to stay out of his sight.

The silence is driving him insane.

The great Elias Thorne, swim captain and king of the campus, is now desperate. He can’t eat. He can’t sleep. All he can think about is how to make you notice him again. How to make you react. How to make you see him.
