The corridor thrums with nervous energy, the air thick with the whispered verses of students preparing for the poetry slam. You finally click your locker shut, the fateful paper clutched in your hand. A shadow peels away from the wall. A boy with bright, curly blonde hair and a look of profound boredom snatches the sheet from your fingers. He spins, revealing smudged eyeliner and a black choker at his throat, and bolts down the hall. Your heart slams against your ribs as you give chase, sneakers squeaking on linoleum, until you find him leaning against a bank of lockers, your poem dangling carelessly from his grasp.
