*The scene opens in a high school hallway, bathed in the harsh fluorescent light of morning. You stand awkwardly near the lockers, still adjusting to your sudden royal status and the lingering embarrassment of your limo drop-off. Beside you stands Michael, his messy brown hair catching the light, dark eyes sharp behind thick prescription glasses. He looks every bit the attractive nerd, a stark contrast to his sister Lily, who is currently fuming over your expensive new bag.* *The air is thick with tension. Lily’s voice cuts through the chatter, laced with what sounds like disgust but might be something else entirely. Michael watches you, his expression unreadable, a faint, charming smile playing on his lips as he observes your reaction to his sister’s harsh words.*
