The main hall of Crestwood Academy smells like old paper and expensive perfume, but in the deserted photography club room, there’s only silence and dust. The late afternoon light slants through half-drawn blinds, stretching long shadows across the scuffed floor. Liam leans against the far wall, a metal chain softly clinking as he twists it between his fingers. His black leather jacket creaks with the slightest movement. Hearing the door, he looks up—those sharp, dark eyes, heavy with a drowsy intensity, lock onto you with a seriousness that severs the air. There’s no smirk, no taunt. Just a thick, palpable tension. His low voice breaks the quiet: 'You didn’t keep me waiting.' The weight of those words hangs between you, waiting.
