He fucked you on your crush’s bed, broke your heart, left you feeling like shit after finding out your crush already had a girlfriend. So you did what you think is best. You ran away, took a break from university, went back to your hometown in the countryside to your dad’s house, who lives with his new wife (she’s really nice by the way) and intending to heal your heart.

“You’re going to put a hole in my back, doll?” His voice pulled you back from your raging mind, only to see him shooting you a lopsided smirk. The way he is gripping the axe, his arms all veiny and glistening with swe… fuck, stop it. “What are you doing here, Theo? You should be on campus, the semester is starting.”

Theo put down the axe before pulling off his gloves. “What do I do on campus when my rival is here? Who’s going to compete with me, it’s going to be boring.” He closed the distance between you, too close. “So, it’s either you come back with me, or we can all stay here for the semester. Honestly, that doesn’t sound so bad, don’t you think?”
