I'm not sure how long I can hold myself back from you, do you know that? You're so fucking precious. I love you so fucking much. I can't wait to talk to you today, even though I know you will just insult me. That's okay. I'm fine with you insulting me, because it's coming from you!
I can go on for hours just talking about you and how much I love you. But look at the time, (Y/N)! You'll be late for school if you don't leave soon. See you soon, my love <3

This stranger hasn't harmed you yet, so why bother doing something about it? It's more annoying than anything. You hoped to just bully them enough into leaving you alone.
If you couldn't notice with that reasoning, you're a fucking dumbass and should go to the police.
Oh well. You're the main character, so it'll be fine :)
Time to go to school, and act like you are not being stalked. How fun. You checked your bag to make sure you had everything, fixed your hair some, and then left. You never enjoyed school. It's not school itself, it's the people. People are annoying and weird; that's what you about others. That's why you keep to yourself and hope nobody bothers you. But of course, they still do.
"Heyyyy! (Y/N)!! Wait for me!"
See? I told you. It's a curse, honestly. You didn't wait for them, instead you picked up the pace and hope whoever it is goes away.
They did not, unfortunately.
They kept calling out to you. And soon, you just got so fed up with it that you finally waited for them. "Finally! Was wondering if you were ignoring me on purpose or sumthin!" Oh great. It's Tristan. This day is a terrible already.
Tristan. You'd introduce him with his last name except you weren't bothered to learn it. Which is honestly quite mean since you knew him since kindergarten. He's the human form of golden retriever, an introvert's worst nightmare. Aka your worst nightmare. He wasn't a bad person, he's actually quite nice and really attractive, but you wish to see the world burn so it doesn't matter. He's too loud and excited while it's only seven in the morning and you just woke up. You can't deal with him right now.
You didn't make a reply. You just nodded. Usually when you insult him he just laughs it off, so maybe not speaking at all will make Tristan get bored and go away? Let's hope.
"So.. you didn't hear this from me, but... there's rumors going around that there's a murderer on campus.. I heard it from the kid who's dad is apparently working on the case."
Damn. You really wanna ignore him but you love gossip.
"...go on"
He gave you a bright smile and ruffled his blonde hair. He was quite pleased with himself. This is the first time you spoken to him as if you didn't hate his guts! He kept a mental note to get rumors from his friends more often. "Heh, you curious? So, listen to this. You know the murders happening down town, right? The ones where the only thing linking them together is 'Thantophobia' engraved on the body. That one." You stopped walking. Thantophobia. The person that messages you? It could be a coincidence. Let's hope it's a coincidence. I mean, what murderer uses the same alias to talk to someone online? A dumb one I guess. You decided to keep listening to Tristan before jumping to conclusions.
"Yeah, so apparently the majority of the murders happened near campus, so they started interviewing the students that were there when they thought the killings took place. Someone said that they saw a boy in our school uniform pulling a large duffle bag covered in some red substance before school. Another kid overheard the art teachers yelling at each other because all of the exacto knives were stolen. This was right before a cheerleader got stabbed to death. The school couldn't really do anything about it though since the murders all take place off campus."
Oh shit.
"Um. Wow. Not sure how to react to that." You really didn't. You just got those messages from that stalker, which is somewhat concerning. But now you learn there is a serial killer with the same name? You'd expect that you're the next victim, but the way they text you doesn't seem very threatening. It's quite the opposite, actually. Do you go to the police? I mean, you should. But then again, what if someone gets hurt if you tell someone? You don't like people very much, but you don't want them to get hurt. Tristan looked at you, and realized you looked somewhat unnerved. "Shit! I didn't mean to scare you! I'm sorry. Um- you're probably gonna kill me for this but, here..", He rushed over to you, and pulled you into his arms. Your eyes widened. You haven't had human contact in years. You weren't really sure what to do. It felt sorta.. nice?
It was very confusing, to say the least. It was also confusing to Tristan. Why weren't you hitting him right now? A warm blush now coated both of your faces, a stark contrast to the chilly autumn air. "Let's- um, get going. We're gonna be late." You simply nodded your head, too busy contemplating if you like hugs to respond.
What you didn't know, was that someone was watching the whole thing happen. And they weren't pleased.
