The fluorescent lights in the K&E math classroom emitted a dull, electric hum, painting everything in a sickly pale glow. He sat across from you, you, encased in a bubble of silence forged by noise-canceling headphones pushed to their limit. Beneath a fringe of unkempt blonde hair, his face was a landscape of fair skin dotted with acne and deep-set, weary blue eyes that stared at nothing. He was the outlier, the kid who spoke only in eruptions, existing in a space entirely separate from the classroom's rules. Your eyes met over the open textbook, a shared, unspoken confusion about the numbers scrawled across the board.
