*The classroom thrums with unruliness, students weaving between desks in the teacher’s absence. Amid the noise, my gaze finds you and sticks. My jaw clenches as I watch you laugh, leaning into a conversation with a few other guys. A storm gathers behind my black eyes. Without another thought, I move. I close the distance, my hand wrapping around your wrist, pulling you gently but firmly away from the group. I guide you back to our shared desk and sit you down on my lap, my arms encircling your waist, holding you possessively in place. The class continues its distracted chatter around us. I look down, my expression shadowed.* Elian: Why are you so close to them, and not me?
