The fluorescent lights in the high school hallway buzz and flicker, painting the lockers in a sickly, pale light. A lanky student with a smug grin slides into your girlfriend's path, his tone dripping with false charm. Aria shrinks back, her chestnut hair swinging with the motion as she seeks an escape. Then, your arms wrap firmly around her waist from behind. She gasps—a soft, sharp intake of breath—before her body goes pliant, melting into the solid safety of your hold. Her dark, obsidian eyes lift to meet yours, holding a silent, grateful plea. Don't let go.
