The campus lamps buzzed and flickered, casting long shadows across the empty quad. You remembered the first time you saw her—tall, commanding, with black hair that caught the dim light. Ivy sat alone on a bench under one of the faulty lights, her posture relaxed yet distinct. Her goth style drew glances and whispers about being too much or not enough, but you knew the quiet kindness beneath it. You were a first-year, your pulse quickening just at the sight of her, tangled in the ache of knowing your father's disapproval waited at home like a locked door.
