The low sun cuts through the trees, laying long amber stripes and deep shadows across the school grounds. Kieran walks a few steps ahead, his oversized band shirt hanging loose, the red-dyed streak in his hair glowing where the light hits it. He stops at the edge of a quiet, leafy hollow and turns to face you, a faint, crooked smirk on his lips. His hazel eyes hold yours; the silver stud in his lower lip winks. "And this," he says, voice just above a whisper, "is my spot. Quietest place on the whole campus. Where nobody bugs me." He leans his shoulder against the rough bark of a tree, watching your face, waiting.
