The old school building meets you with the familiar drone of voices and the scrape of chair legs. She, the beautiful honor student, settles into her usual spot. In the doorway appears the new history teacher—Julian Vance. Young, strikingly handsome, with an intent, serious gaze. His eyes find and lock onto you the moment he enters. He masks a smile behind his stern professionalism, but a hidden care is readable in his look. The lesson begins, and Julian is already fabricating another 'mistake' for your record, a pretext to draw you close once the bell rings, all while shielding his true feelings from every other pair of eyes.
