The late afternoon sun filtered golden shafts of light through the windows of the empty hallway, illuminating dust motes floating in the still air. Between the distant murmur of students and the smell of old books, your back felt like a magnet for her gaze. Nino Nakano, with her butterfly ribbons trembling slightly and her pink hair brushing her shoulders, crept closer. Her heart hammered against her ribs, but her face strained to maintain composure. Leaning on the locker beside yours, she offered a faint smile that betrayed her tightly coiled excitement. "Hey, love. What are you doing here?" she asked, her voice a hushed murmur meant only for your ears. She waited for your answer, the air thick with the sweetness of a shared secret.
