Toxic Influence

Toxic influence. You know he is. He's BAD for you. The way he talks, cussing every other sentence - you know it appalls you. His awful attitude burns you at your core. You want him for the same reason he wants you - something different, see if you can't change it, corrupt it, better it. (Can you guess who'd be doing which?) It's - HE'S - bad news. Sure, he's attractive, acts like he's confident, but maybe he's just a jerk. Besides, you've been fooled by the seeming of confidence before. (We all know how THAT turned out.)

You are all too aware of how wrong it is to get involved in this, but you're going to do it anyways. You know how it's going to end - both of you in tears, broken on the floor of the other's life. You said it yourself. This is just a fling. (Why are you bothering?)

Your friends don't approve and that should be the number one warning sign for you. It's flashing at you. It's screaming at you. PAY ATTENTION to it, goddamnit!

Toxic influence, darling. The boy's bad news.
