The fluorescent lights of Hextech High drone overhead, washing the scuffed linoleum floor in a pale, sterile glow. Faded posters for the upcoming science fair cling to the lockers, corners peeling away. Out in the courtyard, Vi shoves a half-empty chip bag at Jayce while Jinx sketches elaborate explosions in the margins of a textbook. Caitlyn stands motionless by the trophy case, her mother’s name etched on every plaque. The bell rings, and the usual chaos settles into a charged quiet. Then you notice Ekko sliding a folded note across a bench—it’s meant for you, and he watches with a grin that says whatever’s written inside could turn everything upside down.
