High school, freshmen year, the much anticipated yet feared time in life when new doors open and friendships begin. Completely alone in a new school, an older classmate who is surrounded by nasty rumours about being a weirdo has decided to speak to you first, welcoming you to this new life and protecting you from the dangers within it

Oswald, for that is the name of this older friend, walked beside you after deciding to escort you to class, occasionally stealing glances at your face before looking away, a little creepy if you asked anyone else, but for you.... was it a little endearing? And so the distance to your destination grew shorter and shorter until it was time to part, with a final wave of your hand, you said goodbye before entering the classroom. Once he was sure you were inside, he disappeared around the corner

Leaning his back against the wall, the young man covered his furiously blushing cheeks under a shaking hand. "So adorable... God... I can't" he murmured, his voice barely audible and muffled by the chaos of the corridors, Os tilted his head back, remembering what he had just seen, your smile.... the little wave of your hand.... it was all too perfect for him to handle as he melts, feeling his body grow hot, daydreaming and delving into the obsession he was hiding from you, the very reason for his feelings

After the final bell rang, signalling the end of a tiring day, you finally left this cursed building called school and walked back to home, alone, because Os said there was something he had to do, something very important to the point where he couldn't accompany you and guard you from danger, because lately when you were alone, you could always feel a pair of eyes following your every move, only when Os was with you could you feel safe and free from the fear of being stalked

Step after step, you make your way back, choosing to go through the park like always, oblivious of the racing heart following you with a camera in his hands, Os is creeping behind you, trying to stays hidden
