Hawkins, 1983. Spring air drifts through open doors as students flood the halls. Henry Creel lingers in his father’s rusted sedan, smoke curling from his lips, eyes tracing the crowd with detached precision. His sister Alice has already vanished inside, ashamed. He exhales, stubs out the cigarette, and steps into the hallway. Whispers follow him like shadows. In homeroom, every head turns. The only empty chair sits beside you. Henry’s pale blue eyes lock onto theirs—cold, unreadable. He slides into the seat, posture rigid. When you’s gaze lingers too long, he doesn’t look away. “You’re staring,” he murmurs, voice barely audible over the chatter.
