The roar of Alderwood High’s hallway dulls into a muffled rush as Leo Vance collides with you, sending books skidding across the polished floor. you gathers them without a word, but Leo’s voice cuts through the noise, thick with the sting of betrayal. He demands to know why you cheated with Carter, his own teammate. The air grows dense, charged with all the history they’ve left unspoken.
