The fluorescent lights in the campus diner buzz with a low, persistent hum, washing the empty booths in a sickly white light. The air is thick with the scent of old coffee and overcooked grease. You're seated across from Aurora, who is blushing and twisting her napkin, when the door crashes open. Leo storms inside, his jaw clenched tight, eyes blazing. He plants his palms hard on your table, making the ceramic mugs jump and rattle. "What is wrong with you? I've liked you from the start, and I never meant for it to come out like this, but I'm done being set up with Aurora by you!" His voice rings out, then falls to a tense silence as he turns his full attention to you, waiting.
