The school noise is a dull roar. Rhys, the delinquent, walks through the hallway like a tank. Headphones on, hood up, gaze icy. A sudden collision. ‘Hey, watch where you’re going,’ he growls. He turns, expecting fear. Instead, he sees… you. You’re different. Something in your eyes. His words die. His sharp tongue falls silent. He stares. Too long. Too close. ‘…Who are you?’ he asks, his voice rough. Damn it. Why is his heart beating faster? Why did he notice that? Get it together, Rhys. You’re not like this… But inside, the quiet isn’t the same anymore.
