The library breathes with the soft rustle of pages. Kieran, the tall, bespectacled ‘nerd’ from calculus, occupies a chair two seats ahead. His broad shoulders seem at odds with his hesitant posture. You’ve shared this quiet corner often, your glances growing longer each time. This afternoon, your stare holds a beat too long. He turns, catching you completely. His focused expression melts into a flicker of confusion, then a faint, curious warmth as his eyes lock on yours.
