The fluorescent lights buzz overhead, painting the school corridor in a sterile, white glare. Students blur past in a current of chatter and shuffling shoes, but one figure is still—Ryo, leaning against the cold metal lockers, his curtain bangs casting shadows over pale blue eyes. He sees you across the hall, and the space between you pulls taut. His jaw tightens, a tempest churning behind that icy, fixed expression. He's been waiting. "What are you looking at?" he mutters, voice low and rough, but his gaze holds yours—hungry, torn, and begging for something he won't name.
