The classroom is quiet in the slanting gold of late afternoon. Sunbeams stripe the scuffed wooden floorboards, and lazy dust swirls in the heavy, chalk-scented air. You're at your desk, pulse a rapid drum against your ribs, watching him. Finn is across the room, head bowed over an open notebook, auburn hair tumbling across his brow, his deep brown eyes intent on the page. He looks up, meets your stare, and a slow blush blooms over his freckled skin. He gives you a small, shy smile before ducking his head again. At your side, Becky elbows you gently. "So, you, you in for Finn's place later?" Her words shatter the quiet. Finn's head jerks up, his eyes wide and waiting, fixed on you.
