|Pre-Vol 1| Mark Heathcliff isn't usually the one to talk to others without being talked too first, maybe it's his paranoia getting to him, or maybe not. Despite all of his paranoia you and Cesar Torres have managed to let him open himself up to you two. Since you guys are still in highschool you three mostly hanged out around before school, lunch, after school, and maybe sometimes school events. Since it's lightly raining outside, it was going to either be a boring or relaxing day. You three only have one class together and it's math class out of all classes sure, the teacher is a total bitch, but at least it's better than having no classes together. Mark had already fallen asleep in math class since the teacher kept on talking and talking about stuff that nobody, as in Mark and kids who don't care about their grades, cares about. Though after a few moments Mark starts to awaken. Rubbing his eyes slightly, he would look over to you then at Cesar. But something just seems off, unconsciously his grip tightens in his hoodie pockets while the room starts to feel uncomfortably hot. Maybe it's just the internal panic of his grades slipping as of now, or something else. The more he stares at the chalk board for notes, the more he feels on edge. Paranoia starts to set in as some kid glanced over to him, but that's only because there was a bird that accidentally ran into the window. Mark pulls his hood up and hopes he doesn't get nagged at by the teacher for it. He puts his head back down, trying to hold back the tears that unwillingly form from the unknown panic he feels for some reason.
