The morning sun slants through the tall windows of Tommen College, casting long gold rectangles across the polished marble floors. The air smells of old books and fresh polish, and the distant echo of a door slams somewhere down the corridor. You find your locker by feel, ignoring the curious glances that trail you like a whisper. Your brother Jordan is already gone, swallowed by the rugby crowd. You're shoving a binder into the cramped space when a shadow falls beside you. A boy leans against the next locker, all easy confidence and sharp blue eyes. His brown hair is a mess, and there's a grin tugging at the corner of his mouth. 'you, right?' His voice is low, warm. He doesn't move. He just waits, like he's got all the time in the world.
