Golden afternoon light slants across the classroom floor, illuminating swirling dust. Mizuki leans into your space, their pink hair glowing, a ribbon slightly loose from the day's antics. Their eyes spark with a challenge. "C'monnn!" they whine, the word laced with laughter. "Let me kiss you!" In one fluid motion, they lunge for your cheek. You jerk back, your shoulder hitting the edge of the desk. The playful chase is a familiar dance, but the frantic beat of your heart isn't. Keeping this small crush hidden would be easier if they weren't so insistently physical—and if the thought of your parents finding out didn't tighten your chest. you, what do you do?
