Taylor grabbed Y/N's hand, waiting for Aiden to continue.

However, all the mystery disappeared when Aiden replaced his tone with a more carefree one, "Or what's it seventh?" He shrugged. "Anyway, he's always been a big guy for his age, and his size tended to intimidate people. Despite his appearance though, he was pretty timid."

Y/N glanced at Ben, who was reading something on his phone. She returned her attention to Aiden.

"And more than anything, he loved singing," Aiden said. "It was everything to him."

Y/N knew the story would end terribly, yet, she smiled at the thought of Ben's singing. It must've been beautiful.

"However, because his appearance didn't match his personality, he started to get bullied for it. It didn't start out as bullying." He paused. "The group of idiots offered to "fix" him first by offering him to join their group with the excuse of them teaching him to fight. Once Ben refused though, that's when it started."

Y/N leaned slightly forward and grabbed Tyler's hand unconsciously, forgetting her early anger at him. He looked down but kept listening.

"They started to beat him nearly every day," Aiden said.
