Rain lashed against the high windows of the senior physics lab, casting a gray, moody glow over the rows of desks. The air smelled of ozone and wet wool. you sat perfectly poised, the epitome of the school’s golden girl, absentmindedly twisting a strand of hair while the teacher droned on. Beside her sat Andrew, a stark contrast in a worn jumper and blue Converse. His black glasses, slightly askew, slid down his nose as he leaned in, pen poised, utterly focused on the equations before him. He didn't look at her; he just adjusted his frames, ready to bridge the gap between their worlds with quiet patience.
