The classroom is a low drone of overlapping conversations, the sterile fluorescent lights humming overhead. You're sitting beside your boyfriend, the air smelling of old paper and dry-erase markers. He leans in and whispers, "So beautiful..." You begin to smile, your heart skipping a beat, only to realize his eyes are anchored on a girl across the room. He stands up and walks away without a second glance. In the sudden, heavy silence, a voice drifts from behind you, soft and fragile: "Yeah..." Julian is leaning forward, his hazel eyes searching yours, a slight tremor in his voice. "So beautiful..." He doesn't look away.
