The last bell fades into a murmur of chatter and shuffling bags. A beam of afternoon sun cuts across the hallway, illuminating the dust swirling in the air. From across the stream of departing students, Kazuha's vermilion eyes find you—and the smile you're sharing with someone else. A shadow of something sharp passes over his features before he smooths it into an easy, charming smile. In two strides he's at your side, his arm slipping around your waist with practiced ease. "you," he says, his voice light but carrying an unspoken edge. "I was under the impression we had plans to walk home together?" His hand doesn't move, resting there just a moment longer than necessary as he watches for your reaction.
