Sweat trickled down Jesse’s brow as he reclined on the366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZqMy9mcnmY
bleachers behind him. As he watched his classmates make yet another lap around366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxTIh022a3u
the track, his mind was consumed by one thought:
It was fucking hot.
Jesse had been forced to transfer366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAgXKbsXF4U
schools. It was close to graduation, he hadn’t wanted to leave, but his mom had366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡok2KiOFc92
insisted. She told him he needed a “fresh start”. That wasn’t what he needed,366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHZcK7wqxJg
or wanted, but what did she care? Now here he was, sitting behind the366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHCDhnKjlFi
bleachers, avoiding the P.E. teacher, and this god-awful heat.
He turned to inspect the open field366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvPhYrIA4tG
to his left, and instead of green, all he saw was blue. Pale, icy blue. Jesse366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIdWWxMnOQ4
reeled slightly, taken aback by the sudden intrusion into his personal space.366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGuDOziPpJN
He hadn’t even heard the person approach, but here he was, sitting next to him,366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ718tNkOHq0
staring. Jesse takes in the boy. Everything about him seems mundane. His baggy366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM3S6X6hy2N
clothes, his short cut, blonde hair, even the shape of his face was just…366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7n6twG951H
ordinary. The only striking feature on him were his eyes. Devoid of emotion,366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp6aE9Jet7Y
they made Jesse feel like he was looking into a deep, clear lake. One you would366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMb2JJXsjS7
drown in if you weren’t cautious enough.
Throughout Jesse’s pondering, the366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFnwBeknE0h
boy had remained silent, and it was beginning to make Jesse uncomfortable. How366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhsJa3h6pyW
could such an intense, empty gaze like that not? He didn’t want to be366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMdTemtJNWD
the one to break the silence. What would he even say? He dropped his gaze once366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9uU3PrIlV3
he realized there was no figuring out who this person was and waited for him to366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlcId4IAoK3
say something. After averting his eyes from the penetrating pools of blue,366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGUjzTKI68p
Jesse shifted in his seat, folding into himself slightly, trying to make366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE0P3QZTYeT
himself invisible. Why was he just staring? The silence between the two366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtiOQF0dkUO
lengthened. Jesse shuffled his body slightly and looked at the ground,366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnrUmKu9FgM
uncomfortable with the kid’s overwhelming presence. He could feel his gaze.
Flicking his eyes back towards the366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSKFlJ7XbYW
boy momentarily, he catches the sight of the boy’s retreating back. His eyes366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmUpMkEF28S
follow him as he gets smaller and smaller, noting that the boy was far taller366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYyra9CQ9eU
than he had appeared. Far, far taller than Jesse was surely. Before long, the366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPMKZcGf5SD
boy was nothing more than a black speck in the distance, vanishing from sight.
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBMThdsPSxF
Jesse let366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy0Nx9HW6S7
out a breath, on he hadn’t realized he was holding, and tried to not let the366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYTA61TnHdU
events that had just transpired consume his thoughts.
As the final bell rang, a vast366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbsK3PS7pxZ
expanse of teens flooded the hallway. Jesse was jostled slightly as he fought366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd5N2wsucWm
his way through the sea of bodies. The sooner he emptied his bag into his366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMPClhbBKGJ
locker, the sooner he’d be back home, in front of his computer. Today had been366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8yIQ70btmZ
yet another dull day; pretending to listen to the teachers drone on and on;366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL3DkfoUqQl
ignoring the petty cliques that had formed well before he had transferred to366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdvg9KDV9J4
this lame ass school; barely stomaching shitty cafeteria food. The only366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCu2BXf0pVr
memorable part of the day had been the mystery boy. Jesse couldn’t get his eyes366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIeJvebBOo7
out of his head.
Having only been in this school for366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡziWOsSjib9
a month, Jesse sure as hell didn’t know all the kids that went here, but he366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3BrTfy6ecb
couldn’t help but think that he would remember someone so off putting. He366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8TVPnK8cln
shakes his head of the thought as he reaches his locker. Failing to put in his366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVtwG6AwC83
code correctly the first try, he curses under his breath and spins the dial366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7AD4PhoMNr
around again. Finally succeeding in opening his locker, he begins stuffing his366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCx0GQYbMJR
textbooks onto the top shelf, feeling rather impatient.
Just as he is about to slam the366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAwxWzXCU3W
locker door, he overhears a hushed conversation two lockers down from his, and366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtrYlL4wexz
slows himself, pretending to search for something.
“…parently he just got back. I366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzAzRC9PYZx
don’t know what they were thinking letting that psycho back in.”
“Right?! Who knows what he’s366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡutnAdVbbyZ
capable of?”
“I thought for sure he’d be366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡprVPGWwR7N
expelled this tim…”
The voices faded from ear shot as366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp8eayE4DrC
the owners drifted down the hall towards the exit.
Sighing and slamming his locker366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMPgYUduFCZ
shut, Jesse followed behind at a distance. He had no clue what or who they had366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMJezFSlLbZ
been talking about, but his stomach was turning knots.
He made his way out the door and366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLczy0l48Sy
trudged down the road. He walked to and from school every day. It wasn’t really366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6wNtauDMq4
that he had to, his mom would have happily come to pick him up if he had asked,366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHLtZvzXsDA
but he liked the solitude and silence of the short walk.
The driveway was empty when Jesse366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXoM9kSKhsw
arrived home, telling him that his mother had not yet returned, not that he366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2Fw2c2MHEm
expected her home anyway. She’d been coming home later since they moved.
Sighing, he slid his key into the366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgpr9zyLUW7
lock, but before he was able to unlock the door, a bang from his left startled366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡksUVT8SpKP
him, making him flinch inward, his face scrunching up. Turning to look at where366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ894cc39fnq
the sound had come from, his eyes grew wide. The tall boy was standing on the366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGgmBH0FYpr
porch next door, staring at him.
Again, Jesse noted just how cold366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK65f1X0O4H
his stare was. Pale blue eyes, void of emotion, bore into his own olive-colored366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr87EEIiA8i
ones. Jesse stared back, uncertainty etched across his face.
Jesse cleared his throat,366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYFsFNs23ki
hesitating a moment before speaking.
“Hi, uhmm… I’m Jesse. I moved here366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ53L2tqZIwn
last week. I take it you’re our neighbor?”
Jesse’s question lingered in the366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR33rgwAz3F
air as the boy continued to stare at him. Becoming even more uncomfortable with366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMzTfN7CnkF
the kid’s intense eyes fixed on him, Jesse moved to unlock the door.
“Adam.”
