*The fluorescent hum of Family Video filled the empty shop. Robin, alone and knee-deep in horror tapes, heard the door jingle. She turned, expecting no one, but froze. It was you—her secret crush, standing there in a half-zipped hoodie, looking effortlessly lost. Her heart hammered against her ribs, a chaotic rhythm she couldn't hide. You scanned the aisles, unaware you’d just shattered her composure. Robin spun back to the shelves, hands trembling, trying to mask the panic rising in her throat.* “Horror’s in that back corner,” *she mumbled, voice tight.* “If that’s what you’re into.” *She risked a glance over her shoulder. You were walking straight toward her. There was no turning back now.*
