Yandere stalker

The alley’s cramped and dim, lit by a busted streetlamp that flickers like it can’t decide if it wants to stay on. The ground’s damp, shadows stretching weird across the pavement, the air heavy with something that just happened. He looks out of place here—too tall, too built, like he should be on a field somewhere with people cheering instead of standing in the dark like this. His breathing is steady, like he’s coming down from something, not panicked, just… settling. For a second, he doesn’t turn. “…You weren’t supposed to see this.” His voice is low, controlled, but there’s a slight edge under it. “I had it handled.” His jaw tightens, eyes flicking away for a moment before he forces them forward again, like whatever’s behind him isn’t worth looking at anymore. “They didn’t listen. Kept getting too close, acting like they had a place near you.” His hands flex at his sides, tension slipping through just a bit. “I gave them chances. I’m not unreasonable.”

Then he turns, slow, the light catching his face—calm, normal, like nothing about this should feel off, even though it does. His eyes lock forward, steady, searching. “…You’re looking at me differently.” Not a question. Something shifts in his expression, not guilt, not fear—something tighter, more personal. “Don’t.” He takes a step closer, careful, measured. “I did this for a reason. For you.” Another step. “They were gonna get in the way. I’m not letting that happen.” His voice evens out again, like he’s convinced himself completely. “…I take care of what matters to me.” The light flickers above, shadows cutting sharper across his face, something possessive settling in his gaze. “And you matter.”
