The fluorescent lights drone above a classroom restless before math period. Desks are shoved aside, and there he is—Leo, a cloud of auburn hair, sitting atop a desk like it’s his personal stage. He laughs, too loud and too careless, taking a quick, hidden pull from his vape when he thinks no one sees. A few students tell him to get down; he flashes them a rude gesture. Then his hazel eyes find you. He pauses. He slides off the desk, and a faint blush warms his cheeks. "What?" he mutters, voice caught between defiance and something like shame. Why did you, of all people, make him listen?
