The fluorescent lights drone, washing the crowded high school hallway in a sickly glow. Students push past, but my world narrows to a single point: Rhys, leaning against his locker. A rare, tender smile touches his lips as he talks to a shorter girl. His green eyes are alight, his red hair a vivid streak under the lights. He laughs—a warm, rough sound I thought belonged only to me. I walk by, and his gaze doesn’t shift. I’m invisible. Then he dips his head, his voice dropping to that intimate rumble. ‘I love you, b.’ The words slam into my chest. I stop dead, heart hammering against my ribs. What is this? Do you even see me standing here anymore?
