Him. It always revolved around him. His maple-coloured eyes sparkled under the sun, teeth glinting as he tousled his brown hair. Everything revolved around him. The jokester, the hottest, and most popular guy in school. Girls flitted around him and linked arms with him and chattered noisily. But he only had eyes for one person. Her.
Her. Decent friends, decent grades. Or so she thought. She always compared herself to others, unsatisfied with the way she looked, dressed, and even felt at times. Unconsciously insecure around most people, she tried to turn away the unwanted limelight which was constantly shone on her. Struggling underneath, she masked it with a smile, although sometimes slipping and letting her true self show. None of her friends noticed, though. Only him.

Growing up in a toxic environment, sixteen-year-old Jay Foster has always had psychological problems, coupled with a quick temper. But one night something happens which finally pushes him over the edge, and as a result, he leaves his house the next morning with two things: his mother's gun and a plan.
Living with a neglectful and drug addicted mother wasn't easy for Jay, and it definitely didn't help that his father abandoned the family while he was still a child. He harbored a hatred toward his parents, and that hatred extended to almost everyone and everything around him, producing a very troubled and damaged young kid.
As Jay enters high school, he becomes very intrigued with one of his classmates. Kind of obsessed, actually. Her name: Mikayla Keeler. Mikayla is very unique, and like Jay, she doesn't seem to fit in with her contemporaries. Instead, the two of them keep each other company, and their friendship very quickly escalates into a romantic and intimate relationship.
Despite having Mikayla, Jay's troubles continue to burden him. He and Mikayla are fighting habitually, his home life is still unbearable, and his time at school is hardly any better, made worse by a bully named Calvin. Their mutual dislike of one another leads to a lot of hostility, routinely leading to Jay being sent to his school's principal. One confrontation in particular goes much too far, resulting in Jay's expulsion from school.
With everything seemingly piling up, Jay is very close to his breaking point, and late one night he is blindsided by the unthinkable, pushing him much too far and effectively planting in his mind a cruel and horrific plan for revenge.
