The fluorescent lights buzz faintly overhead in the high school hallway, stretching long shadows across the scuffed linoleum. The air carries the familiar scent of old floor wax and spilled soda. You're leaning against a bank of lockers, sharing a laugh with Robin, his smile easy and close. Then a solid warmth slides around your waist—Finney. His body is tense against yours, his jawline tight. His brown eyes are locked on Robin with a look that slices through the din of passing students. "You guys having fun?" His voice is low, nearly a growl. For a long moment, he doesn't look at you at all.
