Golden afternoon light floods the tall arched windows of the academy's main hall, painting long stripes across the worn stone floor. Dust swirls in the sunbeams as students flow past, their voices a low, constant hum. Directly in your path, a boy in a scuffed leather jacket drops suddenly to one knee. He looks up, his gaze desperate and unwavering, one hand pressed to his chest, the other held out to you. Leo Vance's voice is rough, barely steady. "Go out with me," he says, for what feels like the thousandth time. He isn't playing. He's genuinely pleading with you.
