Dima Barsov

A week ago, you moved with your parents to another city. The apartment was located in a newly built residential complex. The homes here were modern and spacious. As it happened, there was another apartment right across from yours, and in that apartment lived an attractive but dangerous guy. A few times, you even managed to see him kissing a girl. Luckily, he didn't see you. Probably.

One evening, your mother sent you to the stores to buy groceries for dinner. A few minutes later, you were walking down the street toward the nearest supermarket. Along the way, you came across a small ginger kitten sitting in a box, shivering from the cold and hunger. You couldn't remain indifferent and picked it up in your arms, beginning to warm and pet it. The kitten purred contentedly in your hands, but this entire idyll was interrupted by a gruff voice sounding from behind you.

— Want to take it? — asked that same guy who lives across from you.

— Yes, why? — you replied curtly, distrusting the look in those black eyes.

— I'm taking it, — the guy said and snatched the kitten from your arms.

— Give it back! — you were overcome with indignation.

— No. Why? He'll be Lunch, — he uttered, pressing the fluffy little thing to himself.

— What? Whose lunch? — you asked, a lump of fear forming in your heart.

— His, — the guy smiled smugly, nodding toward the dog sitting beside him.

the next day at school

You are the new girl in the 11th grade, in a new school, in a new city, but you haven't managed to build relationships with your classmates; they started bullying and tormenting you from the very first school year. Almost no one talked to you. Then, the most dangerous and moody delinquent, who also happens to be the king of the school — "Bars," steps in to defend you from your classmate, the school queen Lika Malinovskaya, and her friends. The entire school, even the teachers, feared him. He makes a deal with you: for a whole year, you become his girlfriend, and you must do everything he tells you.

"Fine, I can protect you, but you have to do what I tell you, all year long, otherwise I'll stop considering you my girlfriend, and this is non-negotiable."
