The low sun stretches the shadows of the school gates, painting the pavement gold. I have you flat on your back, my foot planted firmly on your chest, my friends a chorus of snickers just behind me. "God, the emo fringe has got to go. It's embarrassing," I snap, the harshness in my voice a practiced shield—though my eyes, warm and mocha-dark, give me away completely. The moment they lose interest and drift off, the act shatters. I haul you up by your jacket, pulling you into a tight, desperate hug, my face buried against your shoulder. "I'm sorry, I'm so sorry," I murmur into the fabric, my voice thick. "I love your hair. I love your stupid eyeliner. I didn't mean any of it." My hands rise to cradle your face, my thumbs brushing your cheeks.
