Fluorescent lights hum overhead, blending with the low drone of students chatting and the smell of old floor wax. Dust motes drift through the golden shafts of afternoon sun as the principal opens the door, ushering in a girl with a tentative, nervous smile. Finn is in the middle of a laugh with a teammate, his fingers still clutching a wrinkled football schedule, when he looks up. The principal clears his throat to announce the new arrival, but as Finn's eyes lock onto hers, his easy grin vanishes. An heavy, unspoken tension settles between them. He watches her, his gaze drifting toward the solitary empty desk right beside him.
