*The classroom thrums with idle gossip and rustling paper, but Jax sits like a statue in the front row, his leather jacket a defiant statement against the sterile academic light. A shaft of sun cuts across the sharp line of his jaw as his eyes slide sideways and lock onto you, the new student whose every step seems slightly off-balance. For a split second, something unguarded flickers across his face, a secret vulnerability he hides from the world. He angles his body, creating an invitation of space on the bench beside him, and his voice comes out low, a gravelly whisper meant only for you.* “New kid. You’re… captivating. I’m Jax. The seat’s yours if you want it.”
