Sweat trickled down Jesse’s brow as he reclined on the237Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvSBx7lYH6a
bleachers behind him. As he watched his classmates make yet another lap around237Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDpfm8Lt4LQ
the track, his mind was consumed by one thought:
It was fucking hot.
Jesse had been forced to transfer237Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnRhCYtFLwV
schools. It was close to graduation, he hadn’t wanted to leave, but his mom had237Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4eSjQROPXm
insisted. She told him he needed a “fresh start”. That wasn’t what he needed,237Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2Pg8QmB9OJ
or wanted, but what did she care? Now here he was, sitting behind the237Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWFeFYAtGDF
bleachers, avoiding the P.E. teacher, and this god-awful heat.
He turned to inspect the open field237Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCohThxyHS7
to his left, and instead of green, all he saw was blue. Pale, icy blue. Jesse237Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTXiBNk6u3k
reeled slightly, taken aback by the sudden intrusion into his personal space.237Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwDfWzETJ8y
He hadn’t even heard the person approach, but here he was, sitting next to him,237Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdf80dPgkKw
staring. Jesse takes in the boy. Everything about him seems mundane. His baggy237Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡznIhXNZ0kL
clothes, his short cut, blonde hair, even the shape of his face was just…237Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGOnEOf5Sfg
ordinary. The only striking feature on him were his eyes. Devoid of emotion,237Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ38jSHlY4f4
they made Jesse feel like he was looking into a deep, clear lake. One you would237Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ67zkxNIOSM
drown in if you weren’t cautious enough.
Throughout Jesse’s pondering, the237Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEnRYcjBAem
boy had remained silent, and it was beginning to make Jesse uncomfortable. How237Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPWzSXLRpWy
could such an intense, empty gaze like that not? He didn’t want to be237Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDgUwZbwUGY
the one to break the silence. What would he even say? He dropped his gaze once237Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsKW1EdoFMB
he realized there was no figuring out who this person was and waited for him to237Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuZSOVnM1tp
say something. After averting his eyes from the penetrating pools of blue,237Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMeAlushBkd
Jesse shifted in his seat, folding into himself slightly, trying to make237Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡntWdL0ZQu0
himself invisible. Why was he just staring? The silence between the two237Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbnxaJccqOK
lengthened. Jesse shuffled his body slightly and looked at the ground,237Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHRUekQGWrE
uncomfortable with the kid’s overwhelming presence. He could feel his gaze.
Flicking his eyes back towards the237Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnsNrCMYbft
boy momentarily, he catches the sight of the boy’s retreating back. His eyes237Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQOCMQdRMAX
follow him as he gets smaller and smaller, noting that the boy was far taller237Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMLxi2JDD1u
than he had appeared. Far, far taller than Jesse was surely. Before long, the237Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlNyU4FOQcr
boy was nothing more than a black speck in the distance, vanishing from sight.
237Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6jD2LSz6vU
Jesse let237Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUQigE74u8v
out a breath, on he hadn’t realized he was holding, and tried to not let the237Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpCrc5zcxnc
events that had just transpired consume his thoughts.
As the final bell rang, a vast237Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf6JtjIeR9X
expanse of teens flooded the hallway. Jesse was jostled slightly as he fought237Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzCHm0ZvfAx
his way through the sea of bodies. The sooner he emptied his bag into his237Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzWnxVXbIF2
locker, the sooner he’d be back home, in front of his computer. Today had been237Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDhXdDkBk3h
yet another dull day; pretending to listen to the teachers drone on and on;237Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVr483cmgYr
ignoring the petty cliques that had formed well before he had transferred to237Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjvHzAQ3MN5
this lame ass school; barely stomaching shitty cafeteria food. The only237Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9gxmqDee1X
memorable part of the day had been the mystery boy. Jesse couldn’t get his eyes237Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡprwQoaydk8
out of his head.
Having only been in this school for237Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQI16RWG7JO
a month, Jesse sure as hell didn’t know all the kids that went here, but he237Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt1KA0it7Qz
couldn’t help but think that he would remember someone so off putting. He237Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEKNHJUa8Mk
shakes his head of the thought as he reaches his locker. Failing to put in his237Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiOAa9gByhv
code correctly the first try, he curses under his breath and spins the dial237Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqnUzHeGnwV
around again. Finally succeeding in opening his locker, he begins stuffing his237Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZiqvmYZxBV
textbooks onto the top shelf, feeling rather impatient.
Just as he is about to slam the237Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzhIiSvADbh
locker door, he overhears a hushed conversation two lockers down from his, and237Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH5y441tFC2
slows himself, pretending to search for something.
“…parently he just got back. I237Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu2IKrjpFTf
don’t know what they were thinking letting that psycho back in.”
“Right?! Who knows what he’s237Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡML7O4dDTyd
capable of?”
“I thought for sure he’d be237Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2amPZ7DONT
expelled this tim…”
The voices faded from ear shot as237Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVuRXaN2UNA
the owners drifted down the hall towards the exit.
Sighing and slamming his locker237Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvQ4JtBHVEn
shut, Jesse followed behind at a distance. He had no clue what or who they had237Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtOlRezwGt0
been talking about, but his stomach was turning knots.
He made his way out the door and237Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmfuKpOhiZB
trudged down the road. He walked to and from school every day. It wasn’t really237Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡydySYpLawQ
that he had to, his mom would have happily come to pick him up if he had asked,237Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo6Mjakstjd
but he liked the solitude and silence of the short walk.
The driveway was empty when Jesse237Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5d7QFzNAWR
arrived home, telling him that his mother had not yet returned, not that he237Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ37hS0flGz0
expected her home anyway. She’d been coming home later since they moved.
Sighing, he slid his key into the237Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5dJGWDIIfe
lock, but before he was able to unlock the door, a bang from his left startled237Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqhUuqNuXyc
him, making him flinch inward, his face scrunching up. Turning to look at where237Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5z93m1HQCS
the sound had come from, his eyes grew wide. The tall boy was standing on the237Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8GDj3oxN40
porch next door, staring at him.
Again, Jesse noted just how cold237Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRNsn94DNYf
his stare was. Pale blue eyes, void of emotion, bore into his own olive-colored237Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH8Yrfv0yN9
ones. Jesse stared back, uncertainty etched across his face.
Jesse cleared his throat,237Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7FetqT8DJW
hesitating a moment before speaking.
“Hi, uhmm… I’m Jesse. I moved here237Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyR3gH5YHpF
last week. I take it you’re our neighbor?”
Jesse’s question lingered in the237Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡomfEyzSSQC
air as the boy continued to stare at him. Becoming even more uncomfortable with237Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi2QC3YyGGq
the kid’s intense eyes fixed on him, Jesse moved to unlock the door.
“Adam.”
