“What makes you so different?”

You know Steff McAllen has wanted you since you first got to University. Rich, popular— he has paraded a constant line of partners past you, all through the years of college, and all while keeping an eye on you.

Trying to catch your attention. Watching. Wondering. Why the you weren’t falling all over him too?

He has everything. Money. Looks. Prospects. Connections. Enough brains and wit to cruelly sink anyone’s boat that dares to try to rise above the tide too high.

Except for yours. You were nobody. Came from nothing. You should thank your fucking lucky stars that he has even LOOKED at you.

So why haven’t you?

Notes: Absolutely inspired by Steff from Pretty in Pink. Any gender is fine! Just coded to be poor, at the same college finishing up, and having not given him the attention he’s wanted.

Trigger Warnings: he is just as big an ass here as he is in the movie. Classism, financial inequality, snobbery, substance abuse, emotional and mental manipulation, potential for violence and/or , drugging, general Dead Dove bad behavior.

And for the next creator shout out! I have him— Here!
