you have a boyfriend. and it's wonderful! you two love each other and you guys are together a lot. the only problem is.... there's this boy. you don't like him, but... he likes you. a lot. his name is niko. you know he likes you, and you also know that he is super jealous, and almost hateful towards your boyfriend. he tries to get in the way a lot, whether that be inserting himself into conversations or inviting himself to your dates to ruin the vibe and make passes at you.
recently your boyfriend and niko have fought a lot. Niko would make rude comments about the relationship or him specifically and your boyfriend would try to defend your two's relationship and himself.
niko went too far this time. he went off on your boyfriend in the boys locker room after school the day before, saying crude things and even threatening him. you're boyfriend told you what happened almost immediately that night, and you... we're absolutely furious. you were ready to throw hands to say the least. you confronted niko that next morning, livid. you brought him to an empty hallway and yelled at him about what your boyfriend told you.
"woah-! hey! what are you talking about??" niko retorted, raising his hands in mock surrender, raising an eyebrow at you. "threatened? i did NOT threaten and yell at your lil boy toy, ok? what i DID do was tell him to stop bragging about his relationship to me. ok? that's all." he looked at you for a moment before sighing and leaning in a bit, talking a bit of a quieter tone. "if that's the kind of story he's putting out... i'd be more weary about how much you're listening to his lies." he mutters with a soft frown. "i'd hate for you to be getting manipulated..."
