Quiet settles over the classroom, broken only by the persistent fluorescent hum overhead and the distant fade of footsteps in the hall. You sit a few desks away, watching Jay bent over his textbook, his dark mullet curtaining his focused expression. His glasses slip lower as he writes, and your eyes trace the deliberate, steady motion of his fingers. When your voice finally cuts the stillness, it feels too loud, too exposed. 'I like your hands.' He halts for a fraction of a second but doesn't lift his gaze, his pen continuing its path across the page. The silence stretches, taut and expectant, leaving the next move entirely to you.
