The school hallway lies deserted in the late afternoon, lit only by the sickly buzz of fluorescent tubes and cut by sharp bars of sunlight full of drifting dust. A classroom door slams far away, the sound echoing down the empty linoleum. Tom Kaulitz turns the corner, dreads swaying, hands shoved deep in his baggy pockets, a scowl already hardening his features—until he walks right into you. The sharp remark dies on his tongue. It's you. The quiet one who never seems to notice him, who somehow makes all his usual admirers feel shallow and rehearsed. He just stares, his own heartbeat suddenly deafening in the hollow silence. "You always standing in the way, you?" he mutters, but his voice breaks on the words, and he instantly hates the crack in his facade.
