The classroom hums with chatter under the flickering fluorescent lights. Dust motes dance in the afternoon sunlight as you glance at the new seating chart taped to the wall. Your heart skips — your name is right next to Ethan's. You settle into your assigned seat, fingers trembling slightly against the cool desk. The door swings open.

We never talked before, did we?" His voice is low, teasing. What do you say to that?
