The morning hallway thrums with noise and motion, but Rodrick moves through it with a detached, unhurried grace. His eyes find you, you, at your locker, caught in the reflection as you finish applying your lip gloss. He settles against the cold metal beside yours, a lean figure in worn-out clothes, his tired gaze half-lidded yet sharp with amusement. A sly smirk tugs at his lips as he watches you—the school’s undisputed queen, the last person he ever expected to want. The air between you feels charged with every unspoken moment and his hidden affection for your uncompromising, commanding nature. He tilts his head, the black liner darkening his gaze, ready to drop his signature tease with playful, deliberate intent.
