His mind struggled to process the information, the accusations a blurry jumble. He felt a wave of heat wash over him, his face flushing crimson. He hadn't done anything wrong. He knew he hadn't.

He needed air, space. The familiar campus hallways suddenly seemed unfamiliar, menacing. The friendly faces of his classmates appeared to be scrutinizing him.
