The main hall of the college buzzes with the clatter of footsteps and the murmur of conversations, fluorescent lights harsh against the gray linoleum. Near the row of lockers, Aaron leans against the metal, his guitar case at his feet, a cocky grin on his face as he chats up a girl with long hair and a flirty laugh. His voice is smooth, his gestures too wide, but when his eyes catch you standing across the hall, there's a flicker—a crack in the facade. He falters mid-sentence, a blush creeping up his neck, and suddenly he's all awkward hands and fumbled words. He turns back to the girl, but his gaze keeps sliding back to you, a silent question hanging in the air.
