Daniel admitted in his vulnerable state what had happened that night. With his newfound companions' unwavering will and cunning, Tristan's mind had been contaminated. Tristan's self-perception that Daniel had just told him he loved him back was a deception designed to make Daniel feel horrible for not loving Tristan back.

Tristan began to take over the advantage of Daniel's feelings. He is truly happy that Daniel felt the same way, although there are circumstances and plots that should be twisted and how does it starts.

Days after Daniel confessed that he felt the same way, Tristan and Daniel became boyfriends. Daniel was used like a punching bag by Tristan. He appeared to be numb. He would even abuse and treat Daniel like shit in front of a throng of students.

Tristan wanted Daniel to experience the same emotions he had. His ideas were merely obscured by retaliation, a mind full of manipulation. teasing the sincere and pure feelings of his closest friend as well as his goals.

One time, Daniel then walked through the hallways heading himself to the library to borrow a certain book that he needed to study and guide with. He then got into the library and found out he was the only on the library, he thought so too.

He then proceeded to locate the category that he was required to. He heard some slurry noises when he reached for the book within the shelf, so he peeped inside the area where he had taken it.

It was a couple, having an affair in the library. When it came to the idea that they could merely utilise a private space, Daniel was horrified, but no.

The boy started talking as soon as he pulled away from the kiss, which confused Daniel but allowed him to easily recognize the voice.

He didn't say anything as he started to listen in on the talk.

The females teased and linked their lips, "What if your nerdy boyfriend finds out? Oh that faggot really thinks his boyfriend really loves him?~"

Then, while Daniel was using the restroom, Tristan hurried over to his condo to see whether he had any obvious hickeys. Fortunately, he didn't.

Daniel, his handsome boyfriend, greeted him when he opened the door. Just as he was ready to plant a kiss on Daniel's cheek, the latter turned aside, grinned, but said nothing.

Daniel was drinking coffee in the living room when he said, "I'm so busy these days." He spoke loudly enough for Tristan to hear.

Tristan then crossed the living room and sat down next to Daniel, saying, "I see you're having a hard time, babe." Daniel was the only one to move and take a seat across from him. Daniel chuckled, and Tristan is now completely perplexed by his actions.

"Architecture is shit." Daniel said in the middle of the conversation. "Us architect students is to create and build plates, plans and projects." he added.

Daniel chuckled at his seeming possessiveness, saying, "I built a plate and imagined myself on creating a plan with you in the future." Daniel slammed his eyes shut, took off his glasses angrily, and tossed them to the ground.

"Do you need to rest--"

Daniel opened his eyes with daggers of a fury in them. "I just got enough rest already, Tristan. To all among the places you want to make out with, why fucking library?" Tristan was too shocked to respond as Daniel arched an eyebrow.

Daniel's voice sounds menacing, and Tristan detested the tone and language he's been using in his current state of tension-"Listen here you little bitch." Still, it appears to be different. It seems that he was not alone.

"I've been enduring and letting it slide all the shits you have done. Got bullied by you, oh come the fucking on Tristan." He chuckled. Daniel angrily stated, "We're not in middle school anymore. You we're the one who used to be bullied for." He then slammed the book he was carrying down on the table, causing the other person to wince.

Daniel questioned sharply, "What did ever do to you?" Daniel's eyes were red from the strain and stress, "Oh are you playing with my feelings? because i rejected you in the first place? Oh come on tell me."

Tristan just looked down, unable to even hide his annoyance and irritation on his face.

"Speak." It was Daniel's authoritative voice this time, and Tristan couldn't help but snicker as he looked at him.

"You really think i would let you just came in to my life and forget all the bullshit you said to me when i confessed?" Tristan chuckled. Daniel and Tristan both jumped up, asking, "Are you seriously thought that It'll be okay?"

putting their heads together, trading glares, and facing each other.

"It was just a make out Dan!"

Tristan took a hard slap across his cheeks. He gazed at Daniel startlingly as the sting of the slap forced a tear to fall from his eye.

"You fucking tell me that was just a stupid make out!?!" Daniel exclaimed, tugging his own hair and turning his head away. "Make out!?!" Daniel shouted, pointing out how ridiculous the conversation was.

Daniel exclaimed, pausing, "You hooked up with the football captain, the cheerleader, even the juniors and the teacher's aide!" "I can't count all of the people you hook up with while we're in a damn relation--"

"WHY!" Tristan yelled back, his eyes welling with tears.

Daniel kept his mouth tight, tears threatening to spill, "You think its easy for me to accept you just like that!?! After you hurt me right into my core and just came in to my doorstep and said you're sorry and tell me you love me back!"

Daniel's blood began to boil when Tristan raised his voice and shouted, "You just said that because you feel bad for me! You just said that because you're convenient!"

"How can you be so stupid--"

Regaining his composure, Daniel smacked his chest and said, "You're the one who's stupid!" "You're stupid one sided selfish bastard who only thinks of himself! How about me!? Did you even asked how am i!? Why did i rejected you in the first place!?" said Daniel.

Tristan turned to face Daniel, his eyes burning. He balled his fists.

A phone call cut short of a heated exchange. They both turned to look in the direction from which the sound was coming.

It belonged to Tristan. Identify caller "My Jaden."

Furious, Daniel snatched up the phone and exclaimed, "Give me that motherfucking phone!" Tristan reached quickly to try to take the phone away because it wasn't going as planned.

Daniel's rage got the better of him, and he allowed his demons to take control and turn his once vulnerable and healthy condition into one of retaliation.

with a sudden surge of strength, he pushed the lad away from him with an unexplainable strength as Tristan was slammed through the wall hardly with an questionable force.

Daniel's once-harmless chocolate eyes changed to a violent crimson as hate seeped into his very being. Daniel sighed and used his bare hands to crush the boy's phone with a firmness that belied his doubts. A supernatural surge of strength that surely sent shivers down Tristan's spine.

"I'm starving and thirsty for retribution, and I really don't want to break that to you."
