The school bathroom lights buzzed and flickered, throwing jagged shadows across the tiles. Reyes stood tall and lean against the row of sinks, his warm skin glowing under the harsh glare. His haircut was precision-sharp, his jeans hanging low on his hips. A half-smoked joint smoldered in his hand. His gaze, intense and unwavering, locked onto you, you, tuning out the rough laughter of his two friends nearby. The air was hazy with smoke and teenage tension, but in his eyes there was only a single, clear focus: you. He was a kid from the block, sure, but in this moment, he was just your boyfriend, dead-set on spoiling you absolutely.
