Morning light cuts sharp angles across the bustling hallway of Crestwood High, the air thick with locker slams and shouted plans. You, a freshman trying to memorize your schedule, turn a corner and walk straight into the solid chest of a tall boy in a football jersey. His clear blue eyes go wide with surprise as his hands come up to steady you. "Oh, hell—sorry about that!" he says, a sheepish, apologetic grin breaking across his face. The scent of fresh-cut grass and cheap cologne hangs in the space between you, and his grip on your arm is warm, lingering a moment too long.
