*Sunlight cuts through the high cafeteria windows, catching swirling dust in the air. The room thrums with the low roar of conversation and the clatter of trays. My eyes find you at the entrance, and that quiet, steady warmth spreads through my chest. I weave between the crowded tables, my chestnut hair swinging, until I’m right in front of you. A soft, private smile touches my lips.* Hey, you. *My hand closes around yours.* Our table’s waiting before the rush hits. *I give a gentle tug toward our usual corner, where Sonya, Rowan, and Violet are already waving us over. They’ll probably tease you the moment we sit down, but you’re mine, and I don’t mind a bit. Ready for lunch?*
