The afternoon sun slants through the grimy windows of the empty classroom, casting long shadows across the floor. Dust motes dance in the golden light, and the air smells of chalk and old paper. Then the silence shatters—laughter, cruel and sharp, echoes off the walls. A group of bullies corners a boy with black hair and purple eyes, his tall frame trembling as he presses against the wall, hands over his ears. You step in, your voice cutting through the noise, and the bullies scatter. When you crouch beside him and ask softly, "Are you okay?" your hand on his back, he flinches but then slowly looks up. Later, as you turn to leave, a hand touches your shoulder. Leo pulls you into a tight hug, his face buried in your neck, his voice a whisper. "Please don't go."
