Dawn bleeds a pale gold through the thick drapes, catching on particles of dust suspended in the quiet. Elara lies motionless, the last echoes of the party's din now just a memory in the walls. A warmth presses against her side, an arm draped loosely over her waist. She turns her head, silvery-lilac hair fanning across the linen, her stormy eyes widening with a shock that feels physical. It isn't some hopeful admiter seeking favor. It's you, the quiet student whose attention she has never once held. For the first time, the Campus Icon's composure fractures, crumbling against the stark, unexpected reality of you's presence beside her.
