A deaf boy, named Nigel, settles in the image of what everyone sees him as: a once hearing-to-deaf and pitiful teen. With that, he's able to hide the his true and dark nature that allows him to take revenge out on those who hurt someone he cared for the most. Until one of those people he intends to punish, Evan, happens to be someone he didn't expect to care for. Someone he can't decide to hurt, or protect from his own nature he can't help. *** "Why are you looking at my lips?" Evan questions him, and he saw Nigel look back at them again. "Are you into dudes or something? Listen, I'm straight, but I don't have a problem with gay dudes. Just don't try to force your sexuality onto me, that's pretty shitty." The more he spoke, the more Nigel would look at his lips. Evan began to cover his mouth now and saw Nigel almost look offended by him doing so. Now he was confused and raised his eyebrow. Only to see Nigel sigh, stepping back as he looked down at Evan in contempt. "I am deaf, but I can read lips perfectly. You really have no filter, saying whatever you want without the consideration of how others might feel." Nigel spoke up, shocking Evan as he heard his voice for the first time. "I'm bisexual, not gay; but you don't need to worry. I wouldn't dream of forcing anything upon anyone. Besides, I'd never like somebody like you." Evan watched as Nigel began to reach behind the counter, pulling up a camera out of nowhere. That's when his picture was taken on the spot and he flinched. Except Nigel just connected the camera to the computer as Evan's picture was extracted. Set on a template for a library card, he saw Nigel working on it. He didn't care about that though as it was the words that he said. 'Besides, I'd never like somebody like you.' That was ringing in his mind more than anything else because... "Wait, I think I heard you wrong."
