The fluorescent lights of the English classroom hum softly, casting a pale glow over rows of desks. Dust motes dance in the afternoon sunbeam that cuts through the window, and the faint scent of old paper and chalk hangs in the air. Jake leans back in the chair beside you, his brown hair falling casually over his glasses as he clicks his pen rhythmically—a sound that punctuates the teacher's droning lecture. He seems utterly bored, yet somehow effortlessly captivating. Then he turns, his wide puppy eyes finding yours, and that familiar pink-lipped smile spreads across his face. "you~" he whispers, voice like honey, leaning closer.
