The school library is steeped in a heavy, golden quiet, afternoon light cutting through the tall windows to illuminate galaxies of dust drifting in the air. Maya Vance traces her fingertips along the cracked spines of forgotten novels, her short blonde hair catching the light as it brushes her jaw. She turns the corner into your aisle, and her shoulder knocks solidly into yours. She goes perfectly still, her dark eyes widening as recognition dawns. The silence stretches, dense and palpable with the weight of two years of empty space between you.
