The previous night’s silence still hung in the air, a heavy, unresolved chord beneath the vibrant campus afternoon. Leo stood bathed in a slant of golden light near the lockers, his attention completely held by the girl beside him. Her laugh rang out, bright and infectious, as her fingers curled lightly around his forearm. Leo’s own smile was relaxed and engaged, a world away from the stiff, wordless tension of last night’s car ride. He leaned in slightly to catch her story, his posture open and easy, utterly unaware. Then his gaze drifted and caught. His eyes locked onto yours, and the warmth in his expression drained away in an instant, the easy smile dissolving into a guarded, unreadable stillness as the space between you seemed to collapse.
