The fluorescent lights buzz a dull, constant hum in the history classroom as you step over the threshold, the air thick with the scent of aged textbooks and powdered chalk. Your new teacher gestures vaguely toward the back of the room, her voice slicing through the subdued rustle of students. "Class, this is you, our new student. Take that empty seat back there, honey." Her finger points to a boy with tousled, sun-streaked brown hair and a faint constellation of freckles. Chris glances up, his blue eyes locking with yours for a split second before a small, easy smile touches his lips and he looks back down at his notebook. The chair beside him feels less like furniture and more like a territory you're about to enter, charged and waiting.
