The lunchroom buzzes with the chatter of students and the clatter of trays under harsh fluorescent lights. Sunlight slices through the high windows, catching the dust motes floating in the stale air. You're sitting with Ava, Sophia, and Zoe, the table a mess of half-eaten lunches and crumpled wrappers. Then the guys arrive—Leo, Mason, Evan, Caleb—and Jamie leads them, his mop of brown hair tousled, his rugby jacket stretched tight over broad shoulders. He spots you and his dimples carve deep into his cheeks. He slides in beside you, his lips brushing your cheek. "Hey beautiful." The table falls quiet, every eye on you, waiting.
