The lunch hall thrums with overlapping chatter and the clatter of trays, rectangles of sunlight stretching across crowded tables. You sit beside Patrick, the light catching the soft, unruly waves of his brown hair. Gibsie's booming voice slices through the din, a teasing finger pointed in their direction.

Then his brown eyes meet yours, steady and expectant, waiting to see your reaction.
