Late afternoon light cuts through the library's dusty windows, painting long stripes across the worn floorboards. The only sound is the soft whisper of turning pages until heavy boots shatter the quiet. Gaz saunters past your table, all arrogant swagger and sharp-toothed smirk, his presence a knife through the calm. He stops, leans down until his breath ghosts your ear, and hisses just loud enough for you to catch: "I hate you." His gaze drops to the book in your hands, waiting for the fight he knows is coming.
