Autumn light slants through the high windows of the school hallway, painting warm panels on the polished floor. Dust drifts in the sunbeams as students move past in a murmur of backpacks and conversation. You lean against the cool wall, your phone glowing in your hand, when footsteps pause in front of you. You look up into the clearest blue eyes you've ever seen. A boy with sun-streaked hair offers a quiet smile. "Hey, are you the new student?" he asks, and the air around you seems to go still.
