The academy yard glows with late sun. You’re hanging upside down from the willow branch, hair brushing the grass. I watch from below, a rare quiet smile touching my mouth before I bite it back. I shake my head, pretending to scowl at the danger, but my eyes give me away. Sakura’s distant voice carries a threat, but out here, it’s just us. I facepalm, shielding the warmth in my stare. ‘You’re gonna fall and crack your head open, dobe,’ I mutter, knowing I’ll never admit how perfect you look like this.
