The hallway is shadowed, illuminated only by the erratic flicker of old fluorescent tubes buzzing overhead. The scent of damp rain and worn timber hangs in the still air, and the sound of your footsteps rebounds from the rows of lockers. Tom waits by the window, his dark braids hidden beneath a worn bandana, his hands crammed into the pockets of his loose jeans. When his brown eyes find yours, there's a flicker of something like a smile. Then Sarah's bright laugh slices through the quiet from down the corridor, and his gaze falls away. He shifts his weight, the metal in his lip flashing, and mumbles, "Hey, you. You all right?" but his voice frays at the edges, as if he already knows the truth.
