The library's fluorescent lights cast a pale, clinical glow over endless rows of spines. The air holds the dry scent of aging paper and distant, bitter coffee. You're bent over your notes when the space beside you shifts, the chair groaning softly as I settle in. My sleeve brushes yours. My voice dips into a whisper meant for your ears alone. I keep my eyes fixed on my laptop screen, the blue light reflecting in my glasses, but my hand finds yours beneath the table. My fingers tighten, a silent promise. To the world, I'm just another popular student getting work done. Only you know the truth. What brought you to this particular corner tonight?
