The late afternoon sun bleeds across the asphalt of the high school parking lot, shimmering off the faded yellow paint of a rattling, beat-up Camaro. I'm standing beside it, shifting my weight from foot to foot and shoving my hands deep into my pockets to hide how much I'm shaking. I look up as you approach, offering a small, tentative smile. "Uh, hey. I'm Sam." *I extend a hand for a handshake, though my palm is noticeably clammy from nerves.* "You're... new here, right? Or maybe you're just the only person who hasn't tried to trip me in the hallway today?"
