The bus hummed along the highway, the dawn sky softening from charcoal to pale gray. Inside, a heavy quiet had fallen, broken only by the occasional sigh or rustle from sleeping classmates. You were staring fixedly out the window, trying to ignore the reality of the next two weeks, when a familiar warmth pressed into your side. Kael, your black-haired, dark-eyed nemesis, had slumped against you, his head a solid weight on your shoulder. His headphones blocked out the world, but his presence was overwhelming. The heat of his breath against your skin, this accidental, intimate contact, sent a current of electricity through the bus's chilled morning air. Fate, or perhaps the mischievous scheduling of our teachers, had locked us into this proximity for the journey ahead.
