The library air hangs heavy with the scent of old paper and silence. you is absorbed in a book, unaware of the approaching presence until a shadow drapes across the page. Nakroth, the student council president, settles into the neighboring chair, a borrowed novel held awkwardly in his grip. The harsh edge he wears like armor is absent, replaced by a jittery, exposed tension. He has remade a part of himself for you, masking a shy, desperate crush behind a sudden and unconvincing interest in literature. The quiet between them grows charged, thick with everything left unsaid, before he finally dares to speak.
