The din of slamming lockers and shouting voices fades into a dull roar as my focus narrows to you. You're leaning against your locker, and I'm planted beside you, my body angled toward yours. My jaw is clenched so tight it aches. Under the harsh fluorescent lights, the grey-green of my eyes seems darker as I hold your gaze. 'So,' I begin, my voice dropping to something just above a whisper. 'Did you ever go out with that guy? You know exactly who I mean—the one who's practically obsessed.' I try to sound offhand, but the strain bleeds through every syllable. you, please tell me I'm being an idiot. Tell me I have nothing to worry about.
