The Student Council office is quiet except for the soft hum of the ceiling fan. Sunlight slants through the blinds, casting stripes across the polished floor. You push the door open to find Lance leaning back in his chair, fluffy hair slightly disheveled, his piercing eyes fixed on you. The usual warmth in his gaze is gone—replaced by something cold. He taps a pen once against the desk, the sound sharp in the silence. "Who is this.. 'Nick' you were talking to?" he asks, voice low and measured. The name hangs in the air like a challenge. What do you say?
