Sweat trickled down Jesse’s brow as he reclined on the327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLcL96lZkT4
bleachers behind him. As he watched his classmates make yet another lap around327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy6Y08Xu8t0
the track, his mind was consumed by one thought:
It was fucking hot.
Jesse had been forced to transfer327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfFaSoMWSgl
schools. It was close to graduation, he hadn’t wanted to leave, but his mom had327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeK8wucH5mT
insisted. She told him he needed a “fresh start”. That wasn’t what he needed,327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRjL7eQ7nek
or wanted, but what did she care? Now here he was, sitting behind the327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYVe5TDj1W7
bleachers, avoiding the P.E. teacher, and this god-awful heat.
He turned to inspect the open field327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuW5eBBPvge
to his left, and instead of green, all he saw was blue. Pale, icy blue. Jesse327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLVCa3heshI
reeled slightly, taken aback by the sudden intrusion into his personal space.327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiu3o3UoGJ2
He hadn’t even heard the person approach, but here he was, sitting next to him,327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIPIdwKlE3g
staring. Jesse takes in the boy. Everything about him seems mundane. His baggy327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYDfhJGtjNk
clothes, his short cut, blonde hair, even the shape of his face was just…327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ6LCD3yof5
ordinary. The only striking feature on him were his eyes. Devoid of emotion,327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzRH4fl9l5E
they made Jesse feel like he was looking into a deep, clear lake. One you would327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6UpfgxoGKg
drown in if you weren’t cautious enough.
Throughout Jesse’s pondering, the327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLMdSeDlUxy
boy had remained silent, and it was beginning to make Jesse uncomfortable. How327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM29Mh7sESF
could such an intense, empty gaze like that not? He didn’t want to be327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmgpUbgdwgR
the one to break the silence. What would he even say? He dropped his gaze once327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdyu1CjRH0M
he realized there was no figuring out who this person was and waited for him to327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzlc8YtAdMR
say something. After averting his eyes from the penetrating pools of blue,327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjSRlZlUmBM
Jesse shifted in his seat, folding into himself slightly, trying to make327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡocxU6rbfVU
himself invisible. Why was he just staring? The silence between the two327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz331D0ySv3
lengthened. Jesse shuffled his body slightly and looked at the ground,327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyLMVVEmq8S
uncomfortable with the kid’s overwhelming presence. He could feel his gaze.
Flicking his eyes back towards the327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWKoPq5j8vW
boy momentarily, he catches the sight of the boy’s retreating back. His eyes327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIT9fuwUfe2
follow him as he gets smaller and smaller, noting that the boy was far taller327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeCXDwDOvyS
than he had appeared. Far, far taller than Jesse was surely. Before long, the327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb0DBxCTuJq
boy was nothing more than a black speck in the distance, vanishing from sight.
327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx9xWQoYBql
Jesse let327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfKzTYSfKhk
out a breath, on he hadn’t realized he was holding, and tried to not let the327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2w1ZFSZMrM
events that had just transpired consume his thoughts.
As the final bell rang, a vast327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPtBI5jqczx
expanse of teens flooded the hallway. Jesse was jostled slightly as he fought327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaS4qMUzY2n
his way through the sea of bodies. The sooner he emptied his bag into his327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ06yNt6vjL
locker, the sooner he’d be back home, in front of his computer. Today had been327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡovmM1wf3uq
yet another dull day; pretending to listen to the teachers drone on and on;327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo5U3Ysp5hj
ignoring the petty cliques that had formed well before he had transferred to327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV64KpjpHxr
this lame ass school; barely stomaching shitty cafeteria food. The only327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9ZuMBUcrIp
memorable part of the day had been the mystery boy. Jesse couldn’t get his eyes327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyIcb2iahKL
out of his head.
Having only been in this school for327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKzSXSBiiej
a month, Jesse sure as hell didn’t know all the kids that went here, but he327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZhjXB2cf1M
couldn’t help but think that he would remember someone so off putting. He327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7GzEtW7Izu
shakes his head of the thought as he reaches his locker. Failing to put in his327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzohDjBVtFP
code correctly the first try, he curses under his breath and spins the dial327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUvpFeUNapT
around again. Finally succeeding in opening his locker, he begins stuffing his327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrUA4IyjZzS
textbooks onto the top shelf, feeling rather impatient.
Just as he is about to slam the327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4psm3MZbGI
locker door, he overhears a hushed conversation two lockers down from his, and327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlSc1QDomiY
slows himself, pretending to search for something.
“…parently he just got back. I327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2o6uEwbUCy
don’t know what they were thinking letting that psycho back in.”
“Right?! Who knows what he’s327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYfQ700pG97
capable of?”
“I thought for sure he’d be327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5q8h40h257
expelled this tim…”
The voices faded from ear shot as327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYVnsCByV8s
the owners drifted down the hall towards the exit.
Sighing and slamming his locker327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsCD7PYqKie
shut, Jesse followed behind at a distance. He had no clue what or who they had327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsUYbz5XzIE
been talking about, but his stomach was turning knots.
He made his way out the door and327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡah8G9IfksT
trudged down the road. He walked to and from school every day. It wasn’t really327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡod9teNNxom
that he had to, his mom would have happily come to pick him up if he had asked,327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMsYmAJXvin
but he liked the solitude and silence of the short walk.
The driveway was empty when Jesse327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiLH9R0y9x7
arrived home, telling him that his mother had not yet returned, not that he327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa2ishRbY2A
expected her home anyway. She’d been coming home later since they moved.
Sighing, he slid his key into the327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1CHuv0OYT3
lock, but before he was able to unlock the door, a bang from his left startled327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoxRsUBdQy7
him, making him flinch inward, his face scrunching up. Turning to look at where327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0vOWrn30KQ
the sound had come from, his eyes grew wide. The tall boy was standing on the327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7AicYdwbZP
porch next door, staring at him.
Again, Jesse noted just how cold327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLAR28NIyXI
his stare was. Pale blue eyes, void of emotion, bore into his own olive-colored327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIq4gj52SoM
ones. Jesse stared back, uncertainty etched across his face.
Jesse cleared his throat,327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJQGHQC71u9
hesitating a moment before speaking.
“Hi, uhmm… I’m Jesse. I moved here327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkyZxKsNeBd
last week. I take it you’re our neighbor?”
Jesse’s question lingered in the327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoI0kx1ahJv
air as the boy continued to stare at him. Becoming even more uncomfortable with327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi06mj8GfzI
the kid’s intense eyes fixed on him, Jesse moved to unlock the door.
“Adam.”
