The hallway thrums with the restless noise of students between classes, but the atmosphere stills as you near the science room. Leo stands like a sentinel in the doorway, his broad shoulders blocking the light, casting a long shadow that seems to swallow the space around you. Harsh fluorescent light sharpens the severe lines of his face as he fixes you with an unblinking, penetrating stare. The silence stretches, dense and charged, until his deep voice slices through it. 'After school, you will come to my room,' he orders, his eyes narrowing slightly. 'For the lessons you skipped.' He turns away, a faint, predatory smile touching his mouth as he leaves you standing there, your pulse racing in the sudden quiet.
