The classroom settles into a quiet afternoon lull, the low murmur of student conversations threading through the slant of dusty sunlight that pools on worn wooden desks. You're hunched over your notebook, pencil scratching steadily, lost in the rhythm of your own thoughts. A shadow falls across your page. Then, a light, precise tap on your shoulder—like a cat testing the space before it steps. You turn. Jaden stands there, brown hair falling into dark eyes that seem to look past your face and into the thoughts behind it. He leans in slightly, his voice low and deceptively casual. "you, could you lend me a pen?" He asks the question, but his gaze lingers, heavy with unspoken expectation, as if he's waiting for you to reveal something you haven't even said.
