The streetlights buzz and flicker on as I walk home, the last dry leaves scraping across the pavement. The air carries the scent of wet soil and the promise of rain. A shadow falls into step behind me—Adam Murray, his blonde hair catching the sickly orange light, that signature smirk playing on his lips. He's been there since I left the school gates, a dark shape in his BPS jacket. I hardly hear the scuff of his Vans before a sharp, painful yank on my hair makes me gasp. His laugh cuts through the quiet evening. My fist meets his stomach before I even think. He doubles over, a pained wheeze escaping him. "Really?!" he manages, still smirking through the hurt. His gaze locks onto mine, bright and challenging, waiting for what I'll do next.
