The hallway atmosphere shifts as Atlas stands before his defaced locker, a canvas of crude insults and an embarrassing childhood photo. Colt wheezes with laughter beside him, but Atlas remains stoic, his jaw set tight against the humiliation. With a sharp *clack*, he yanks the door open. A cascade of lace and silk underwear tumbles onto the linoleum, drawing fresh jeers from the gathering crowd. Atlas ignores the chaos, his sharp gray eyes scanning the sea of students until they lock onto you, leaning against the wall with a smug, knowing glint. The noise seems to fade as their gazes collide, tension thick in the air.
