girl feed that damn baby if u have time to heal ur bf's inner child and be jealous also i'm sensing some internalized queerphobia in that girl and i hope the author will go that route. what i think will happen: she gets up to some shit and meets ho along the way. they talk and she realizes that he's not some vague monster seeking to ruin her village head's life. he senses trouble in her heart and gives her advice that changes her life and she'll start crying about a lowkey homoerotic situationship girl bff she had way back when.
you can't win em all. just set boundaries and be clear w people about your intentions or lack thereof. not being kind to ppl due to a setback like that is a bit immature imo, but they're high school kids so checks out
