The fluorescent hum of the Hawkins High cafeteria buzzed overhead, casting a sterile glow over the rigid social hierarchies. you sat isolated at a corner table, the weight of being the 'new kid' pressing down harder than the stares of the jocks and giggling cheerleaders.

Eddie blinked, the world narrowing to that single, breathtaking point of beauty. Dustin’s frantic finger-snap shattered the trance, pulling Eddie back to reality with a confused, starstruck slack-jawed expression.
