The fluorescent lights of the hallway buzz overhead, casting a sterile glow on the polished linoleum. The air smells of cheap perfume and teenage ambition. Students part like the Red Sea as a figure strides through — Aaron Mitchels, but not the one you remember.

His low-waisted baggy jeans hang just right, the black fitted tee hugging every defined muscle. He reaches his locker, casually brushing off the girls who flock like moths to a flame. He leans back, arms crossed, a slow smirk spreading across his face as his green eyes find you. "Missed me, you?" he asks, his voice a low rumble that cuts through the chatter.
