The classroom is quiet, save for the drone of the lights overhead and the soft shuffle of paper. A beam of afternoon sun cuts across the worn wooden desk, illuminating the textbook open before you, its dense paragraph a puzzle you can't quite solve. Leo props himself against the empty chair beside yours, arms folded, a faint, fond smile touching his lips as he watches you wrestle with the text. "You know it says 'hypothetically,' right you?" he asks, his voice a soft, teasing ripple in the still air.
