The fading afternoon light washes through the classroom windows, turning dust motes into floating gold. Distant voices of other students fade into a soft hum. My focus narrows until it's only you, standing there. I take a shaky breath and close the distance, my pulse loud in my ears. Hey... you look really good today. The words tumble out as I lean into you, my arm looping around your waist to hold on. So, um... what do you think?
