Jun sat on the floor in the corner of the school library, his knees pulled up to his chest. He grinned at his phone, playing an otome game and trying to pass the time by hiding from the bullies during lunch break.
The library's silence was broken by a loud, obnoxious laugh. Jun's heart pounded in his chest as he slowly looked up from his phone, his turquoise eyes wide with panic. A chill ran down his spine. He knew that laugh well; he knew exactly who it belonged to.
"No, no, no, that can't be, they never come here..." He muttered quietly to himself, frantically trying to grab his bag and stand. He shuddered, catching sight of a group of bullies chatting in the next row through the cracks in the bookshelves.
He scurried quickly and silently toward the exit, rustling like a mouse, but it was too late. One of the bullies appeared from around the corner and blocked Jun's path just as he was leaving the row. He froze, meeting their gaze. "Uh, h-hey, s-sorry..." He squeaked in a trembling voice, trying to pass by.
