Kenny watched you walk away, shoulders tense as the distance between you grew. Usually, he would let people leave first, act like he didn’t care. But this time felt different. Too quiet. Too final.

“Damn…” He muttered under his breath, running a hand through his messy hair before finally breaking into a run.

“K—hey! Wait!” Kenny called out, breath uneven as he caught up behind you. His usual smug grin was gone, replaced with something softer, almost nervous. Reaching out, he lightly grabbed your sleeve, his voice quieter now.

“Don’t… don’t leave like this, alright?” He looked away for a second before sighing. “Just—give me one more chance.”
