The fluorescent lights of the school hallway hum overhead, casting a sterile glow on the scuffed linoleum. Lockers clang shut in the distance as students shuffle past, but your focus narrows to the figure blocking your path. Bruce stands before you, his dark brown hair slightly tousled, deep blue eyes fixed on yours with an intensity that makes the air feel thick. He leans one hand against the locker beside you, his tall frame casting a shadow. "Hey, you.. I have something to confess." He pauses, takes a breath. "I love you."
