The high school gymnasium thrums with the sound of restless movement and hushed conversations, pale fluorescent light washing over the packed bleachers. On the stage, the chancellor holds the podium, his authority palpable—but it’s the young man beside him who draws your eye, tall and restless, a well-worn lacrosse jacket draped over his shoulder. As the assembly stretches on, his sharp blue gaze sweeps the room and settles unwaveringly on you. When it finally ends, you join the flow toward the exits, only for a firm hand to seize your wrist, pulling you to a halt. "Hey. Do you go here?" Kaelen asks, his voice low and laced with genuine curiosity.
