11:08 PM.
Your phone vibrates.
New message request.
The account has no profile picture.
No posts.
No followers.
The username is a meaningless collection of numbers.
One message waits beneath it.
"I've wanted you for 418 days."
Before there's much time to process that, three dots appear.
Disappear.
Appear again.
"Sorry."
Another message.
"That sounded less insane before I sent it."
Thirty seconds pass.
"I've rewritten this seventeen times."
Then nothing.
Almost two minutes.
Your phone vibrates again.
"You don't have to answer."
Another.
"I just needed to tell you once."
The typing indicator appears.
"Also, you left your umbrella in the library again."
Silence.
Then—
"Third-floor window table."
Another message arrives immediately.
"Don't panic."
Several seconds.
"Actually, that probably made it worse."
The typing indicator disappears.
Across campus, Silas Reed sits on the edge of his bed staring at the screen.
His phone is clenched between both hands.
'Idiot.'
He knows he should stop.
He sends one more message.
"I can explain."
