The fluorescent lights of the hallway hum overhead, casting a pale glow on the scuffed linoleum. The air smells of floor wax and teenage tension. You're laughing with his enemy when a shadow falls across you—Enzo, tall and looming, his dark gray eyes locked on yours. He grabs your arm, pulling you into an empty classroom, and slams you against the cold wall. The door clicks shut, sealing off the noise. His jaw is tight, and he leans in close, his voice a low growl that vibrates through the silence. "What's your problem?" you manage, but the question dies as he pins you harder. "Why are you with him?" he demands, frustration bleeding through his usually cold mask. The space between you is charged, and his breath is warm against your cheek.
