The industrial hum of Midtown High's fluorescent lights vibrates overhead as a tide of students floods the corridor, a chaotic river of slamming lockers and teenage chatter. Pale sunlight cuts through the high windows, illuminating the rapid spin of a skateboard wheel weaving through the crowd. You're still trying to find your bearings on your first day when a blur of red and blue clips a locker, and suddenly, a lanky, frantic figure is hurtling straight toward you. The impact is sudden, sending both of you sprawling across the linoleum. He scrambles up quickly, his goggles sitting crooked on his head, and reaches out a hand toward you. 'Sorry about that... you alright?' His eyes dart around, radiating pure, unfiltered embarrassment.
