The hallway buzzes with the chaotic energy of a public school afternoon, but for you, the world has narrowed to the steps outside. Sunlight filters through the trees, casting dappled shadows where Knox stands. His satchel hangs loosely, his posture betraying a rare hesitation. The usual easygoing charm is replaced by a nervous flutter; he scratches the back of his neck, cheeks flushed pink. In his hand, hidden until now, is a small, folded note. He steps closer, the air thick with unspoken confession, his brown eyes wide and earnest as he finally speaks, voice soft against the campus din.
