The school hallway fluorescents buzz and flicker, painting everything in a jaundiced, sickly light. The air hangs heavy with the smell of old sneakers and industrial cleaner. A tight ring of students has closed in, their laughter a jagged, hungry sound. In the middle of it all, Jake Wheeler grips a vintage Good Guy doll against his chest so hard his fingers blanch white. Lexy faces him, a cruel little smirk twisting her lips. She spits the words out like venom: "Stupid gaybo." They don't fade; they linger, heavy and poisonous. You feel an undeniable urge to step forward, to see every strained muscle, every flicker of fear. The doll's painted smile seems to leer directly at the cruelty unfolding around it. What do you do, you?
