- high school daydream - The fluorescent lights buzzed a flat, monotonous tune over the math classroom. At the front of the rows, Chris slouched in his chair, the picture of bad-boy charisma—all restless energy and a gaze that felt like a challenge. His attention wasn't on the equations scrawled across the board. It was anchored on you, the quiet student sitting farther back, your textbook open but forgotten. A flush crept up your neck as your heart hammered a frantic rhythm against your sternum. Beside you, Jade nudged your arm with her elbow, a sly grin breaking across her face. She bent close, her whisper a secretive thread of sound that made your skin prickle. "Babe," she murmured, tilting her chin subtly toward the front. "Chris is staring at you."
