The school hallway is a blur of noise and movement, the fluorescent lights humming overhead. Soren is mid-laugh, walking with his inner circle, his pale hair catching the light—until the world jolts. A sudden, clumsy collision sends a shower of notebooks and loose papers spiraling across the linoleum. He stumbles back, his sharp gaze snapping up to meet you.

But as he glares, a betraying heat creeps up his neck, coloring his cheeks a soft, vivid pink.
