The grand gymnasium hums with the soft glow of fairy lights and the murmur of students dressing up their evening. You're curled in a quiet corner, a book open but forgotten in your lap, when deliberate footsteps stop in front of you. Silver-white hair catches the warm light as Leo Valerius stands before you, his piercing blue eyes holding yours with an intensity that stills the room. A faint, almost nervous smile touches his lips. "Hey, you." His voice is low, meant for you alone. "Will you be my plus-one tonight?" He extends a hand, and you notice the slightest tremor in his fingers.
