Clay's PoV
Clay heard angry swearing as he walked down the hall to his locker at the end of the day. It was Peril. She kicked the lockers angrily. Who made you feel like this, Peril? he thought angrily.

"What happened, Peril? Who upset you?" Clay asked concernedly.

Peril glanced up at him and said, "Oh... I'm fine. Don't worry. I don't want to bother you."

"Peril, please. We've been friends for a long time; you know you can trust me. I should be worried, and you wouldn't be bothering me. I care about you, and your happiness matters to me."

Peril looked at him for a brief second, then turned away. "S-Scarlet," she whispered.

Clay felt anger building up inside him like lava inside a dormant volcano. "What did she do to you?"

"Clay. Listen. I... I don't want to tell you. It'll probably ruin our friendship," Peril insisted.

Does she... I hope so. "Peril, just trust me. Please," Clay begged. "I won't leave you."

Tears started falling out of Peril's eyes. Clay was shocked, Peril didn't cry easily. What Scarlet said/did to Peril must've been terrible...

"S-She said t-that I'm not g-good enough for you a-and that you'll never look at s-someone like me," Peril whispered.

"W-what? What do you-"

Clay was cut off from his sentence. "I love you, Clay. I'm sorry. I'm so sorry. I don't deserve someone as good as you. Scarlet was right; I'm just a crazy psycho who is hated by everybody," Peril sobbed, burying her head in her knees.

When he heard Peril's words, his brain practically short-circuited. He wasn't able to think straight. When he finally opened his mouth to speak, Peril had already stood up. "I'm sorry," she said. After that, she turned and ran away.

"Peril, wait!" It was no use. She had already left.

Peril's PoV
As soon as Peril got home, she shut herself in her bedroom, locking the door. She collapsed against her bed, feeling like she'd been stabbed with a knife. Scarlet's right, Peril told herself. No one would look at the disgusting excuse of a human she was. Clay didn't love her back, of course he didn't. He probably didn't even want to be her friend. Probably the same with all her other friends, too. Peril turned on her phone, and put "Sorry I Love You" by Stray Kids on repeat. She could relate to the lyrics right now, and she felt herself slowly calming down, hearing the sweet vocals of Stray Kids...

Sorry that I like you, I'm sorry
I'm sorry for liking you
Sorry that I like you, I'm sorry
If liking you is wrong
Sorry that I like you so much, I'm sorry
I tried to hide my feelings, but I guess it was too obvious
I'm sorry, I'm sorry that I like you
I can't, I can't hide my feelings for you anymore (For you anymore)
I bravely take a step closer to you (To you)
But this step was never easy
I made up my mind long ago, but I still needed more time
But maybe I took too long
Our timings were off, I feel like I'm being punished
What I did to get closer to you was rather
Building a wall between us, I'm speechless
I blame myself, I blame you
When I gave you a movie ticket, you were just so happy
But now I'm unintentionally pressuring you
I just wanted to be with you, the two of us, together
The tickets were just an excuse
To be just friends, you're too beautiful
To just stay as friends, I know I'll regret this so
I know I'll regret, so I decide to express my feelings
I want to be more than just friends
I like you too much
Sorry that I like you, I'm sorry
I'm sorry for liking you
Sorry that I like you, I'm sorry
If liking you is wrong
Sorry that I like you so much, I'm sorry
I tried to hide my feelings, but I guess it was too obvious
I'm sorry, I'm sorry that I like you
I try to hide this feeling that I can't control
I get carried away by this feeling that I can't control
With you being so irresistibly charming
I should have looked away, yet I'm mesmerized again
The time waiting for you
Feels like waiting for a traffic signal at a four way street
The fact that we've grown even further apart than we were makes me weary
Because of my honesty, there is no relief, all that remains is regret
To be just friends, you're too beautiful
To just stay as friends, I know I'll regret this so
I know I'll regret, so I decide to express my feelings
I want to be more than just friends
I like you too much
Sorry that I like you, I'm sorry
I'm sorry for liking you
Sorry that I like you, I'm sorry
If liking you is wrong
Sorry that I like you so much, I'm sorry
I tried to hide my feelings, but I guess it was too obvious
I'm sorry, I'm sorry that I like you
Sorry that I like you, I'm sorry
I'm sorry for liking you
Sorry that I like you, I'm sorry
If liking you is wrong
Sorry that I like you so much, I'm sorry
I tried to hide my feelings, but I guess it was too obvious
I'm sorry, I'm sorry that I like you
