•3rd POV•

DATE: MAY OF 2004

"Stop hogging my spot, dude!"

"It's everyone's seat, bozo! Pick the other one."

The canteen was filling up, seats being taken by teenagers. The other side of the room held a long line, waiting for their turn to buy the school's sales. Some are running for their group, trade lunches, talking about what to do after school, etc.

As the teenagers come in and out, one comes in a slouching figure. This one wore a black jacket, cargo pants, with a backpack that was almost falling off their shoulders. A tired look from lack of sleep. That would be (Reader), a 15-year old graffiti enthusiast.

They walked throughout the room to a vending machine, cash in hand. Bopping their head to the tune from their cheap headphones to a cassette tape of an ACDC Album. They picked a chip and waited but it only got stuck midway down.

"Fuck sake, they picked the shittiest vending machine..." signed in frustration, they glance around the room to see who's ever watching them, sneaks around of the side of the machine, and forcibly nudge it with their elbow. The chips then fall down, smiling in their success, grab it, and leave. But they were called out.

"Hey (Reader)! Wait up!"

A voice called them and turned to it. A boy walks over to them, he has blonde curls wearing a green jacket, black pants, and some sneakers. That would be Daniel Matthews, their seatmate. Daniel snuck around to grab his backpack, searching the contents inside to give them something.

"Sup Dan, you need something?" murmured, removing the headphones to their shoulder. Their hair was messy yet fine. "Oh, nothing, just this. Thanks for giving me your notes. Sorry for bugging you of it.'' He gave them their notebook back, hands sliding into his pockets. "Oh, don't be dude, it was nothing." he gave them a lopsided smile.

"Anyway...where are you heading out? You look even more awake than last time." Dan asked while following (reader) side, they'd sometimes skipped class after lunch since the later classes are just a read through their textbooks. But skipped a few nowadays since they got caught two times for skipping and witnessing them graffiting the side of the abandoned buildings nearby. Although it is nearing vacation, they have been skipping a lot. "Out. Some estate agent caught me at a reserved house, sent me to MPD having mom bail me out. So... I'm just laying low for a while." "Mmm yeah, still can't believe you manage to slip out of there quickly." "I mean...I'm still a minor." He took a chip and popped it into his mouth, walking out of the area.

"Dan..." (Reader) calls out to him. He turns to them with a hum. "How are you and your pops? I haven't seen you with him for a while after the event..." He looks to his side "We don't talk anymore, it's just..you know before that.." "Oh yeah right, sorry about mentioning that again." They change the subject, avoiding the event they witnessed of his father's breakdown. They kept on walking together to where they're heading off, talking about doing something to do later weekend.

Munching the chips, they turn the corner of the hall to the side of the school. Till a beeping sound was heard. (Reader) look down at the digital watch they pocketed from someone, turning their wrist to them, the clocks lighting up red. They slid the chips into the blonde's pockets and bolted. "Oof! what?-"

"Imma go now, D. Wait for me tomorrow by your house." They climb up the fence of the school ground and down to the streets. "Alright! See ya.." Dan waves slowly, turning around heading back to his class.

While in the natural weather, a certain someone has gotten off of their vehicle. That someone is carrying a silver suitcase, wearing a jet-black coat, dark pantsuit, and black suit shoes. He takes a look at his pocket bell under the sun's light squinting a bit to have a better look, brushes his blonde hair to the side from the side mirror. He locks the vehicle with his keys and heads off to the hospital.
