Chapter 1: Find Your Victim
Tommy shivered under his thick black hoodie as he walked towards the ratty apartment that was falling apart. Gray snow was drifting down from the sky, and he was freezing, his thin frame shaking under the baggy sweater. He hopped up the broken, dirty cement steps, and pulled at the door. It didn't budge. Tommy held back a groan. Locked, and there wasn't a key. At least, he didn't have it. Tommy sighed and trudged back down the steps, almost slipping on some dirty ice. He walked quickly, wrapping his arms around himself and rubbing his sides as he walked to the park, his converse getting soaked from the snow littering the ground. He scampered to the group of evergreens and dove under the branches, huddling there, warmer than before, and dry. His eyelids drooping, he curled up with a yawn and fell asleep.
Adam laughed and poked Brad. Drake was whispering with Cassidy, so Adam had decided to bug his best friend. "Whataya think they're talking 'bout?" Adam asked for the millionth time, watching the two other boys. Brad rolled his eyes and said impatiently, "I don't KNOW, Adam." Adam huffed and pouted, his air fogging in the night, when he spotted a figure under the pine trees across the park. He perked up, wondering who it could be, and jumped up and trotted off. No one bothered asking where he was going since he was always bouncing somewhere. Adam crouched at the trees and watched the sleeping figure. He frowned and crawled over to it, it looked cold. He peered at it only to find it was a young boy around his age. "Hello?" Adam said quietly, gently shaking the blonde, whose lips were practically blue. When he saw a flutter of eyelashes, and bleary brown eyes peered at him, some glints of green hidden in the warm depths, he felt his heart do a double take.
Tommy stifled a yawn and sat up, watching the black haired blue eyed boy in front of him. "Hi?" He finally said, hugging himself to try and keep warm. "What're you doing out here?" Adam asked, tilting his head. Tommy shrugged. "Got locked out of my apartment." He mumbled. "Oh…" Adam paused, then shrugged out of his heavy jacket and draped it around Tommy. "Take it. It's fine." He smiled at him, and Tommy felt his mouth go dry. "Thanks." He mumbled. Adam nodded and left with a backwards glance before he jogged off towards his friends, Tommy staring after him. He hadn't even found out his knight in shining armour's name.
