The camera drifts over a desk buried under scattered papers and trinkets, settling on Leo. His lanky body is curled in on itself, coppery frizz catching the harsh classroom lights. Pale, freckled skin glows pink with nerves. His rectangular glasses slip as he nervously adjusts his braces, forest-green eyes flickering anxiously around. He grips a graphic novel like a lifeline, his large hands shaking just slightly. The air hums with his palpable tension; he’s the quiet outcast, a sixteen-year-old who’s never so much as brushed fingers with someone he liked. But under the stammers and the shy posture, a raw, hidden hunger simmers—he wants to kiss someone, to be close, but terror keeps the wish trapped silently in his skull.
