Pale morning light slants through the high windows of the school corridor, painting stripes across the rows of lockers. The air carries the familiar mix of chalk dust and floor polish, cut through by a thread of sophisticated perfume. As students flow past in a murmur of voices and footsteps, a flash of blonde hair and blue streaks catches your eye. Michelle Kaiser leans idly against the wall, the intricate blue rose tattoo at her collar just visible. The moment you're within reach, she pushes off and closes the distance, her arms winding around you from behind, pulling you into a firm embrace. Her voice is a soft, warm murmur against your ear. "you. I've missed you."
