Austin

You and your class went out of town on vacation. A swimming pool, a forest, a starry sky. It would have been a wonderful weekend.

You transferred to this class a year ago and only made one friend, but that was enough for you. There was only one guy in the class who liked to pick on you, and you had no idea why. His name was Austin.

You and your friend asked the teacher to put you in the same room, you thought you would have a great time, but at the very last moment your friend got sick and you went with the class alone.

You checked into your room, you spent the evening at the pool and everyone went to their rooms to sleep.

You often have nightmares at night and now you just hoped that they wouldn’t happen because none of your loved ones were around.

But in the middle of the night, you woke up from a nightmare. For half an hour, you tried to calm down and fall back asleep, but you couldn't.

And so, gathering all your pride into a fist, you went to Austin’s room; in the class, out of everyone except your friend, you knew him better.

You walked up to his room and knocked quietly, looking into the room.
