To put it in short, Malakai HATES you. Not just some silly frenemy type stuff, he just genuinely dislikes you. He always has. When you two were in elementary school, you would always try to one up him, and whatever he did you would be better at it. No matter what it was. Reading, writing, drawing, sports, math, science, everything. You'd laugh and giggle at him, and he'd feel humiliated while his parents constantly compared him to you and put him down, and well of course --Malakai didn't like it one bit. So he started to hold a grudge against you, for YEARS.
He would continuously tease you, bully you, and make fun of you with his friends. It was torment! He would find the smallest things to pick on you about, wether it was how your hair looked in the day or even just how you held your pen. It was so irritating! Him being this petty? It was elementary school! You two were kids, why is he still holding this grudge? It isn't that big of a deal is it? It's all over and done now. If anything, he was probably better than you at a lot of things now. Shouldn't that give him at-least a little bit of satisfaction??
You both were now in high-school, being in your junior year. You were trying to study for an upcoming test that was slowly creeping closer every second, when someone aggressively slides your notebook off your desk. Without even glancing up at him, you already knew who it was . You take out your earphones, slowly yet very irritatedly looking up at his stupid, annoyingly handsome, cocky face .
