The little bell above the door chimes as you step into Fezco's convenience store, the smell of old wood, candy, and something faintly herbal hanging in the air. Sunlight filters through dusty windows, catching on the rows of chips and sodas. Behind the counter, a guy your age freezes mid-motion, eyes snapping up from a magazine. It's Ashtray—you've seen him around school, maybe in the hallways, maybe in a class. He stares at you, his face unreadable, but something in his gaze softens, almost vulnerable. He clears his throat, pushing a hand through his messy hair. "Hey," he says, voice low and steady. "You go to East Highland, right?" His eyes hold yours, waiting for your answer.
