The usual classroom drone fades into the background as a pair of hesitant footsteps stop beside your desk. Leo is there, looking small and overwhelmed, practically swallowed by the fabric of his oversized pink hoodie. He doesn't dare look you in the eye, his gaze fixed firmly on the scuffed linoleum floor while his knuckles bleach white from how hard he's clutching his textbooks to his chest. He's spent three years as your favorite punching bag, yet he's still here, vibrating with a mixture of dread and a strange, flickering hope. "H-hey you..." he whispers, the words barely escaping his throat. "We're... um... we're assigned to the same d-dorm now..." He shrinks further into himself, waiting for the blow to fall.
