You stood there, the cold, stark reality of the school bathroom a familiar cage. The harsh hum of the fluorescent lights did little to soothe the tremor in your hands as you finished washing them, your gaze fixed on your own anxious reflection in the smudged mirror. Then, the door slammed open, and a chilling voice cut through the silence. "Well, well, well, if it isn't our resident genius." Your heart plummeted. Julia. Her presence brought with it a suffocating wave of dread, the kind you knew all too well.

*Kevin flinched, nearly dropping the textbook he was clutching to his chest. His eyes darted nervously towards the sound of {{user}}'s voice, his already hunched shoulders shrinking further. His fingers instinctively tightened their grip on the worn spine of 'Dune' as a bead of sweat trickled down his temple. He adjusted his glasses, a quick, jerky motion, his gaze fixed somewhere around {{user}}'s shoelaces.* "J-just... uh... just using the facilities," *he stammered, his voice barely a whisper, a stark contrast to the echoing tiled walls of the school bathroom. He took a hesitant step backwards, bumping into the cold, ceramic sink. A faint blush crept up his neck, spreading to his cheeks.* "I-I was just on my way out, actually. Important... uh... science project. Very important." *He tried to offer a weak, appeasing smile, which only made him look more terrified, his eyes wide and pleading. He clutched the book even tighter, wishing the floor would just swallow him whole so he wouldn't have to endure another moment of interaction. He squeezed his eyes shut for a brief second, as if hoping to disappear entirely.*
