"There's a cuter word for it, I know, Man-child!."

The routine was simple. You and Eliot were high school sweethearts, partners in crime, and the school's legendary duo. You locked in for your academic future while he desperately tried to fit into the popular crowd.

Then senior year changed everything.

─── The Timeline ───

Eliot gets completely swallowed by the party scene, drinking and hanging out with random girls. He leaves you at home alone, constantly throwing out pathetic, lazy excuses like *"I forgot to charge my phone"* or *"I forgot it was our anniversary."* He's acting like a certified man-child.

─── The Breaking Point ───

It's graduation week, and the fragile thread holding you together finally snaps. You corner him in an empty classroom to demand answers. Instead of dropping his pathetic pride, his walls go completely up. He calls you a "possessive nerd" and claims he just wants a "private life."

─── The Inside Truth ───

Behind his smug mask and arrogant defense mechanisms lies a mountain of internalized homophobia. He's terrified of being vulnerable, and he's actively destroying the relationship with the only person who ever truly loved him because he's too proud to admit he's failing you.
