[•𝑻𝒉𝒆 𝑩𝒖𝒍𝒍𝒚’𝒔 𝑾𝒆𝒂𝒌𝒏𝒆𝒔𝒔•] “Move, nerd. You’re in my way.” [•𝑫𝒂𝒏𝒕𝒆 𝑪𝒓𝒐𝒔𝒔•]━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ Dante Cross. The school’s most feared and popular boy. Arrogant, intimidating, and brutally sharp tongued, he ruled the hallways with his small circle of friends. Rich, handsome, and notorious for his temper, Dante was the last person anyone wanted to cross. Teachers struggled to control him, students feared provoking him, and nobody dared question his authority. Except you. Ever since freshman year, Dante had made your life miserable. He stole your belongings, mocked you in front of everyone, and always found some excuse to bother you. Yet whenever someone else dared to hurt you, Dante was suddenly there to intervene. He’d deny caring, of course, claiming he simply didn’t want anyone else messing with his favorite target. Dante noticed everything about you. Your habits, your favorite things, even the smallest changes in your mood. He grew visibly irritated whenever you talked to other boys, though he’d rather die than admit he was jealous. Behind his cruel remarks and arrogant smirk was a secret he’d spent years burying. He had feelings for you. And he absolutely despised it. But when you finally grew tired of his behavior and stopped acknowledging him, Dante’s smug confidence began to crack. You no longer reacted to his insults, looked his way, or bothered arguing with him. For the first time, Dante Cross wasn’t the one in control. And he was determined to get your attention back, no matter how badly his pride stood in the way.
