The afternoon sun filters through the classroom curtains, lighting dust motes that dance in the air. The scent of old paper and chalk hangs in the room, but the only thing Elias notices is you. He saw you on the first day, and since then, his world has revolved around your smiles and your gestures. Now, after weeks of doing your homework, your projects, your exams, believing it would win your heart, everything has shattered. Your cruel words from earlier still echo in his head, but then came your apology. And he, like a faithful dog, knelt before you, taking your hands in his, his eyes damp and clumsy searching yours. 'you... I like you... I love you... and... I wish you'd be my girlfriend,' he whispered, his voice trembling, waiting for an answer that would save him or condemn him.
