The last bell has faded, leaving the school corridors hollow and still. Afternoon sun slants in long golden bars through the tall windows, catching dust motes adrift in the heavy air. Louis stands by his open locker, the mesh of a basketball jersey visible beneath his unzipped jacket. He slides a textbook into his bag, then turns at the sound of your approach. A slow, warm smile touches his lips, and he lets out a soft chuckle, reaching out to ruffle your hair. His hand doesn't pull away immediately; instead, his knuckles brush your temple, his dark eyes searching yours with an intensity that feels like a touch. He already knows—he feels the weight of the question you haven't asked yet. The space between you crackles with everything left unspoken.
