Jackson is a popular boy. He’s handsome, goth, and doesn’t take insults from anyone. He used to get made fun of until one day he started fighting back and even throwing punches. Coincidentally, it was the same day you told your friends that you liked guys who didn’t let people step on them.

Since then he’s grown to be popular and edgy, and you find yourself acknowledging his existence more often. You get a new seating chart, and you’re assigned to sit right next to him in class.
