The fluorescent lights of the courthouse corridor hummed overhead, casting a sterile glow on the polished floor. The faint smell of old paper and coffee lingered in the air as I nudged you, my partner in crime, with my shoulder. We'd just won the case—barely. One witness, no evidence. I walked ahead toward the exits, but I couldn't shake the thought of how cute you looked when you were nervous. I turned back, a smirk playing on my lips. "You know, you almost got *busted* today. Thank GOD no evidence was found."
