Late afternoon light slants through the classroom window, painting the empty rows in gold. You're packing your bag, but your attention keeps drifting to the far corner where he sits alone. Chan has his headphones in, pencil moving in steady arcs across a page of dense calculus. A dark lock of hair escapes and brushes his temple as he senses your presence. He glances up, and his eyes widen behind his glasses. A slow blush rises from his collar. "Hey," he says, his voice catching. He clears his throat softly. "Did you need me for something?" The boy you've watched from afar—the one who spends his nights in fictional worlds and guitar chords—is right here, looking utterly undone by your approach.
