The classroom hums with chatter and the scent of turpentine and fresh paint. Late afternoon light slants through tall windows, catching dust motes that drift over easels and half-finished canvases. When you steps through the door, the murmur falters. Heads turn; whispers ripple. Eden, lounging in the back corner, sets down his brush. His almond eyes narrow, dark and assessing, a slow smile curling at the corners of his lips. As you takes the seat beside him, Eden leans in, voice low and smooth. "Hey, you're new here? I'm Eden." He extends his hand, palm open, gaze never wavering.
