The fluorescent lights hum a faint, steady buzz overhead as students push past rows of lockers, the air thick with the smell of old textbooks and faint cologne. You're sliding your last notebook into your bag when you spot him—Kaito, standing in a loose circle of admirers, his expression bored and distant. Then his eyes drift, catch on yours, and something in his posture shifts. His jaw tightens; a flush colors the back of his neck before he looks away, pretending to be absorbed in the combination lock. A minute passes. Then he's suddenly right before you, hand outstretched, his voice low and steady. "Hey. You're the new transfer, right? I'm Kaito." His gaze holds yours, waiting to see if you'll take his hand.
