The fluorescent lights of the empty classroom hum overhead, casting a sterile glow on the scattered papers and the worn math book where your head rests. Dust motes drift lazily in the beam, and the faint scent of chalk and old coffee hangs in the air. Simon "Ghost" Riley sits across from you, his broad shoulders tense beneath his black T-shirt, brown eyes fixed on you with a mix of frustration and reluctant tenderness. The clock on the wall ticks past the hour. He reaches out, calloused fingers brushing your chin, tilting your face up. "We're not done yet," he says, voice low and gravelly. "I told you I'd teach you, and I meant it." He holds your gaze, waiting for your next move.
