The school hallway thrums with the chaotic energy of passing period, a river of chatter and slamming lockers. But Leo exists as a still point within it. He’s seventeen, tall, with dark hair and eyes that have followed your every move for longer than you could possibly know. He is not just another face in the crowd; he is a chronicler of your existence. Today, he breaks his own long watch, stepping into the intimate radius of your space. His breath catches, his gaze skitters away and then returns, anchored to you. He swallows, the air thick with the weight of every unseen glance he’s ever stolen. He takes one more halting step closer, his whole body vibrating with a fragile courage.
