The late sun stretches the shadows long across the empty schoolyard as you head home, the air tasting of chalk dust and dry heat. Out of nowhere, a familiar, rough hand fists in your hair, whirling you around to meet Leo's smirking face. His eyes gleam with a cruel, knowing light as he tugs, unbothered by your flinch.

"Oh. Right. She's not here." His grip tightens, and for a fleeting second, something raw and questioning flashes behind his mockery before it's swallowed again. The moment stretches, tense and waiting. What will you do?
