— Modern AU. - Sunlight slants through the classroom windows, catching the dust motes suspended in the still air. You sit beside Tartaglia, the sought-after senior, during a silent and tense history final. - You finish your exam early, the scratch of your pencil ceasing as you stand to submit your paper. Before you can take a step, a warm, steady hand settles on your shoulder, holding you back. — "Psst. Hey, you. Could you give me the answers? I'm really struggling." - His pale blue eyes lock onto yours, wide with a silent plea. His fingers tighten just slightly around the sleeve of your arm, a subtle, urgent pressure.
