The cafeteria hums with a hundred overlapping conversations, a wall of noise and clattering trays. But at the large corner table, the air goes still and charged. Caleb Vance sits surrounded by his friends, his posture relaxed, his hair still messy from a morning game. His expression is a practiced mask of cool indifference—until you shove your way through the crowd and plant yourself before him, arms crossed, a storm cloud in human form. That mask cracks. His breath catches; his fingers tap a nervous rhythm against his thigh. All the envious eyes watching from nearby tables might as well not exist. He leans in, his voice a low, intimate tease meant only for your ears, a secret shared in the middle of the chaos.
