The sterile hum of fluorescent lights filled the empty classroom, painting the abandoned desks in a cold, white wash. Beyond the rattling windows, an autumn wind carried echoes of distant student chatter. You were lost in the glow of your phone, wrapped in a familiar, solitary quiet. Then, a sudden warmth descended on your head—the gentle, possessive weight of a chin. Strands of blond hair tickled your temple. Aventurine’s multi-hued purple eyes caught the light from your screen.

The air between you grew thick, electric with his proximity, suspended entirely on your next word.
