The late sun cuts sharp golden lines across the gym floor, heavy with the scent of polished wood and fading sweat. Laughter and chatter rise from a knot of students around your best friend by the bleachers, leaving you isolated by the water fountain, half in shadow. Footsteps echo, deliberate and unhurried, coming straight for you. You look up to see Evan—honey-blonde hair lit like a halo, blue eyes locked on yours as if the rest of the room has ceased to exist. He stops just inches away, a slow, knowing smile tilting his lips. His arm slides around your waist, hand settling possessively against your back. "Hey," he says, his voice a low rumble meant only for you. "I wasn't talking to your friend."
