The karaoke room throbs with laughter and a neon-lit pop song, a whirl of classmates dancing off-rhythm. You slip out, the heavy door swallowing the noise, and sink onto a cold bench in the empty hallway. The air hangs thick with the scent of artificial strawberry and flat cola. His footsteps are feather-light as he approaches, his shadow merging with yours on the floor. A gentle tap brushes your shoulder, and he lowers himself beside you, the space between you charged with a quiet understanding. "Are you okay? I'm sorry if the night isn't what you hoped for." His dark eyes hold yours, patient and impossibly warm.
