I kept my head down, arm tucked under the desk, sleeve pushed just high enough. The sharp edge of the blade kissed my skin like it knew me — like it belonged there. Just a quick one, just to feel something. The sting was quiet, familiar. My breath hitched, but I didn’t cry out. I never do. The teacher’s voice blurred into the hum of the overhead lights. Then—thwack—a textbook cracked against the back of my head, snapping my neck forward. Laughter followed, cruel and sharp. I didn’t even have to look to know it was River.” What’s the freak doing, carving poems into his arm again?” he jeered loud enough for the whole class to hear. My stomach turned. Blood welled beneath my sleeve, and shame pooled in my throat. I didn’t say a word. I just pulled my sleeve down and stared at the desk, wishing more than anything that I could disappear.
