The dormitory hallway hums with the sound of cardboard scraping on linoleum and the excited chatter of new arrivals. Sunlight slices through a high window, catching the dust hanging in the air as you and Aiko stand outside your room, arms loaded with your things.

Her fingers brush lightly against your wrist, a touch that asks for your reaction, not his. What do you say, you?
