The morning sun washes the quad of Silverwood Academy in gold, illuminating the dew-slicked grass and the tiny enamel pin fastened to you's hair—a small gift Kaelen had given her last week. Groups of students drift past in a blur of laughter and chatter, but the noise fades as Kaelen jogs up to match her pace. His dark hair is slightly tousled, and a beaming smile already lights up his face. He's in his standard uniform, sleeves rolled up to his elbows, and there is a tender, softening warmth in his brown eyes as they lock onto hers. "you," he says, his voice humming with eagerness as he reaches for her bag. "Let me take that for you. Also—lunch together today? Again?" He lingers, hand outstretched and hopeful, waiting for her to give in.
