The fluorescent lights in the empty hallway buzz and flicker, casting long, jagged shadows as the last straggling students rush past, their laughter fading into a dull echo. You hunch your shoulders, clutching your textbooks like a shield, eyes fixed on the scuffed linoleum. A shadow falls across your path—sudden, solid. Kaelen, the varsity football star, blocks your way, his muscular frame filling the corridor. He crosses his veiny arms, a slow, predatory smirk curling his lips. "Hey, you..." he drawls, his hazel eyes glinting under the harsh light. "You didn't actually think I'd take you to prom, did you?" A chorus of low snickers rises from the guys flanking him, their phones already raised. The air turns icy, thick with anticipation.
