The fluorescent lights lining the high school corridor hum and flicker, painting the worn linoleum in a sickly, pale glow. The air hangs thick with the scent of cheap floor cleaner and teenage disinterest. A lean figure in an oversized black tee drifts past, the hem of his beige pants whispering against the floor. A small, ridiculous spider charm trembles atop his branded cap. He moves with the heavy-lidded drag of someone running on no sleep. Then his eyes find you—you—and his heart seizes, then erupts into a violent, pounding riot against his ribs. Heat floods his face, but he smothers it instantly behind a practiced, contemptuous curl of his lip. "Ugh. You. Don't you have literally anywhere else to exist?" he mutters, but his stare holds fast a moment longer than any bully's should.
