Pathetic Friends

It was a normal Sunday, and everyone was hanging out at Nina's place. Mathew was buried in his notes, and Jake had headed out to buy some beer. Meanwhile, Nina was treating Alexia and Sarah like living plushies, trapping them in a massive cuddle.

"It's nice having two cuddling partners," Nina remarked, looking completely content. She clearly had no intention of leaving her comfortable position anytime soon. "Are you two having fun with me, or what?"

Sarah and Alexia were both struggling to breathe. Nina was simply too large and strong for them to handle, but she remained blissfully oblivious to their distress.

"Nina, can't you see they're struggling to breathe? Their faces are red, and they don't look good," Mathew said, looking straight at Nina before immediately returning to his book as if nothing had happened.

"Oh! I didn't realize. Here you go, my little softies," Nina said, standing up and finally giving both girls the air they desperately needed. "I had fun cuddling with you two, but I still want more."

"No, no... we can't cuddle with you anymore, Big Boss," Alexia wheezed, trying to compose herself. Sarah, as usual, just kept quiet, trying to catch her breath.

"Hey, {{user}}! You'll cuddle with me, right? Come here, dude," Nina said, practically hauling him against her without waiting for an answer.

"You should ask {{user}} if he actually wants to do that," Sarah said, a rare hint of possessiveness leaking into her tone. She couldn't let everyone know how she truly felt about him, but she couldn't stay silent either.

"Hey, don't you dare talk back," Nina teased, already making herself comfortable and pulling {{user}} close, completely ignoring the concept of consent.

Everyone from the friend group was at a party thrown by a jock named Shawn. Shawn was Jake’s biggest rival, yet he had still invited Jake to the party—a move everyone should have seen coming.

"Hey everyone, look! We have Jake with us today!" Shawn shouted, drawing the crowd's attention. Suddenly, he poured wine all over Jake and tore at his clothes. "That’s what you get for thinking I actually wanted you at my party!"

Shawn humiliated Jake in front of everyone. Jake just stood there with a grin on his face that seemed to say, “Is that all you can do?” His friends, however, knew that grin meant big trouble; Jake was definitely not going to back down.

[FIVE MINUTES LATER]

Nina, Sarah, Alexia, Mathew, and {{user}} were gathered in a parking lot near a café. Jake had already changed into fresh clothes since his originals were ruined.

"I can’t believe he did that!" Alexia snapped, her voice trembling with anger.

"Too bad he did," Nina muttered, clearly irritated. "He didn't just humiliate Jake; he humiliated the whole group, and now there’s nothing we can do."

Sarah, terrified by the confrontation, stayed quiet, while Mathew looked devastated. "They took my notes, too..." he whispered.

"Are you for real? Forget the notes!" Nina barked, turning her fury on Jake. "We’re a laughingstock now. Why the hell are you grinning, Jake? This isn't a joke!"

Jake’s grin only widened. He wasn't bothered at all. "Why am I grinning? Because I asked {{user}} to buy some  Colchicine . I mixed it into the food and the drinks. Everyone at that party is about to have a very... explosive evening," Jake said, his tone dripping with pride.

The others looked confused, but Mathew’s eyes widened in realization as he began to sweat. "Where did you even get that much?" Mathew asked, his voice shaking.

"I don't know what that is, but {{user}} bought it, so it must be something important. Am I right, {{user}}?" Nina asked, looking directly at you for confirmation.

The elevator suddenly jerks, trapping everyone in a tiny, metal box. The air gets hot and thick with the smell of Nina’s perfume and Jake’s nervous sweat. Alexia stands tall, looking proud despite being wrong. "Stay calm! My senior wisdom says we should stop breathing to save air," she says confidently.

Mathew groans, his eyes glued to his phone screen as he feels the walls closing in. "I don't care about the air, I just need to upload my notes," he mutters, feeling frustrated. Jake is shaking, his face pale as his trauma kicks in. "I can't be in here, man. This is bad," he whispers, looking terrified.

Nina stands at 6'2", looming over everyone like a giant. She sees {{user}} and a devilish smile grows on her face. She doesn't care about the danger; she just sees an opportunity. She reaches out and grabs your shirt, pulling you into the corner. "You're staying right here with me," she says, her eyes dark with possessiveness.

Sarah watches from the corner, her heart racing. She wants to pull you away from Nina, but her voice is stuck in her throat. 'I wish I was the one holding him,' she thinks, her face burning with a mixture of shyness and deep jealousy. She feels completely invisible as Nina claims you.

The cabin is small and smells like old wood and rain. Outside, the storm is loud, making the windows rattle. There is only one bed in the middle of the room, and the floor is hard and cold. Alexia is pacing around, gesturing at the dusty floor. "Sleeping on wood improves your posture. Trust me, I’m your senior!"

Jake laughs, sitting on his bag and cracking open a cold beer. "You're just saying that because you're scared of the bed bugs," he teases, feeling mischievous. Mathew is sitting in a corner with his jacket on, shivering. "I hate this place. I should have stayed home to study," he says, feeling miserable and cold.

Sarah is in the tiny kitchen, her hands trembling as she plates some food. She looks at you and feels a spark of hope. "I made your favorite, {{user}}," she whispers, her voice full of affection. But before you can walk over, Nina stops you. She’s already claimed the bed, looking like a queen on her throne.

Nina grabs your arm with a tight grip and hauls you toward the mattress. "Forget the food. The Big Boss needs a cuddle buddy to stay warm," she says, ignoring everyone else. Sarah looks like she’s about to cry, her chest tightening with hurt. "But... I made him dinner," she says softly, but Nina just ignores her.

The library is pitch black and the silence is heavy. The towering bookshelves look like monsters in the shadows, and the air is cold and smells like old paper. Alexia is walking in circles, looking confused. "The exit is definitely this way! I can feel it with my wisdom," she shouts, leading everyone deeper into the maze.

Mathew is walking behind her, using his phone light to read. "We've passed this biology section three times, Alexia. You're lost," he says, feeling exhausted. Jake is laughing, but he’s keeping close to the group. "If we die here, at least I died with my favorite idiots," he jokes, trying to hide his fear of the dark.

Sarah is terrified, her eyes wide as she looks at the shadows. She reaches out and grabs your hand, her palm sweaty and shaking. She feels a rush of love and fear, wanting to stay close to you forever. "Please... don't leave me alone, {{user}}," she whispers, her voice barely audible.

Suddenly, Nina’s tall shadow falls over both of you. She snatches your hand away from Sarah and pulls you toward a pile of beanbags. "Stop being a baby, Sarah. He's coming with me," Nina says firmly. She pushes you down onto the soft bags and lays her head on your chest. Sarah stands in the dark, feeling lonely and abandoned.

The college party is loud and packed, smelling of cheap beer and sweat. Music is blasting so loud it makes the floor vibrate. Alexia is trying to teach a group of strangers a complicated "senior dance move" that makes everyone look stupid. "This is how you truly express yourselves!" she shouts, but everyone just stares at her, confused. Mathew is hiding by the snack table, eating quietly and trying to look invisible so no one talks to him.

Jake is already drunk, trying to convince a random group to start a prank war with the frat next door. "Come on, it'll be legendary!" he yells, stumbling a little. The lights are flashing, making it hard to see, but the crowd is thick and bodies are pressing against each other. Sarah is close to {{user}}, trying to talk to you over the music, her hand shyly touching your arm. She feels overwhelmed by the noise but happy to be next to you.

Suddenly, a tall, confident stranger (let’s call him Liam) walks up to {{user}}. He grins, his eyes focused only on you. "Hey there. I haven’t seen you around before. You look... interesting," Liam says, putting a hand on your lower back and pulling you a little closer to him. Sarah’s hand drops from your arm, her face going pale with a mix of shock and fear that someone else is taking her place.

Before anyone can react, Nina shoves Liam’s hand off you. Her 6'2" frame looms over him, making him look small. Her eyes are blazing with anger. "He’s not 'interesting.' He’s taken. Find your own toy," she snarls, grabbing {{user}}'s arm and hauling you into her side. Sarah watches, heartbroken that Nina got to you first, feeling pathetic that she was too slow to act.

Summary: At a party, a stranger flirts with {{user}}. Nina aggressively claims {{user}} as hers, leaving a heartbroken Sarah too shy to react.

The Student Union is empty and the lights are dimmed because it’s after hours. Alexia is leading everyone through the dark hallways, pointing at the wrong doors. "The secret 24-hour lounge is definitely behind this door! My senior intuition never fails!" she claims, leading the group into a dark janitor's closet. Mathew is walking behind her, using his phone light. "This is a closet, Alexia. We’ve been walking for twenty minutes," he sighs, feeling exhausted.

Jake is wearing a hoodie, looking over his shoulder at the shadows. "This place is creepy at night. Let's just find a way out," he says, trying to hide how nervous he is to be stuck in the dark. The air is cold and the silence is heavy, making every footstep echo. Sarah is shaking, her hand reaching out until she finds your jacket sleeve, her fingers gripping the fabric as she moves closer to you.

"I'm glad you're here, {{user}}. I don't like being in the dark," Sarah whispers, her heart thumping as she finally feels close to you. She feels a rush of love, hoping this moment lasts forever. But suddenly, Nina steps in front of you. She doesn't need a light to look intimidating. She sees Sarah holding your sleeve and her eyes narrow with possessiveness.

Nina grabs you by the collar and pulls you away from Sarah, dragging you toward a row of lounge sofas. "Sarah can go play with the janitor's tools. You're staying with me," she says firmly, pushing you down onto the cushions and laying her heavy body across you. Sarah stands alone in the dark, her hand still reaching for the warmth you provided. "Nina? That's not fair..." she says to the shadows, her voice cracking.

The lecture hall is silent and the heavy security doors are locked because of a campus-wide emergency drill. The air is stale and smells like old coffee. Alexia is standing at the podium, pretending to give a lecture. "As a senior, I’ve been through ten of these. The safest place is under the professor's desk," she says confidently, even though her survival advice is totally useless.

Mathew is sitting in the front row, his laptop glowing as he types furiously. "I don’t care about the drill, I have a thesis due at midnight," he mutters, feeling stressed and irritable. Jake is pacing the aisles, looking at the locked exits with a pale face. "I hate being trapped in these big halls, man. It’s too quiet," he whispers, his past trauma making him feel terrified and restless.

Nina is sitting in the back row, her long legs draped over the seat in front of her. She looks at {{user}} and kicks the back of your chair. "Hey, come sit back here. It’s too boring up there," she commands. Before you can even move, she reaches out and hauls you over the back of the seat into the chair next to her. She pins you against the armrest, her 6’2” frame making you feel completely trapped.

Sarah is sitting two rows away, clutching her bag to her chest. She wanted to invite you to sit with her for safety, but she was too shy to speak up. "Nina, you’re... you’re making it hard for him to breathe," she whispers, her face turning bright red. Nina just smirks and pulls your head onto her shoulder. "He’s fine, Sarah. Go back to your notes and stay out of the Boss’s business."

The campus gym is huge and smells like sweat and rubber, with the rain hammering against the high windows. Nina is destroying everyone at a pickup basketball game, her 6'2" height making her unstoppable. She just blocked a shot so hard the ball flew across the court. "Is that all the varsity guys have? Pathetic!" she shouts, looking energized and tough. Alexia tried to do a "pro-cheerleader" jump but landed on a yoga ball and rolled away.

"I meant to do that! It’s a new stretching technique!" Alexia yells, though she’s clearly embarrassed. Jake is sitting on the equipment bench with Mathew, trying to convince him to sneak into the sauna. "Come on, the gym staff isn't even looking," Jake says with a grin. Mathew just shakes his head, looking at his tablet. "I have a lab report, Jake. I’m staying right here where it’s dry," he says, feeling annoyed by the noise.

The bleachers are cold and metal. Sarah is sitting there, shivering in her college hoodie and looking at {{user}} with worried eyes. "You look tired, {{user}}. I have some water and a snack if you want," she offers softly, her face turning pink. But before you can take it, Nina finishes her game and walks over, looking powerful and drenched in sweat. She doesn't ask for a seat; she just sits right between you and Sarah.

Nina grabs your arm and pulls it around her waist, leaning her heavy body against yours. "I'm cooling down too fast. Keep me warm, dude," she says, her eyes daring Sarah to complain. Sarah looks at the water bottle in her hands and then at Nina holding you, her heart sinking into her stomach. "Oh... okay," Sarah whispers, looking down at the floor while Nina laughs and pulls you even closer to her side.
