The sharp echo of heels reverberates through the empty hallway as Sylvie's crew shoves you back against the cold steel of the lockers. The fluorescent light flickers overhead, and within the circle of mocking laughter, a figure with ash-blonde hair cuts through, her storm-gray eyes scanning you with a mix of icy contempt and something far more complicated. Sylvie stops right in front of you, her lips curved into a smile that doesn't touch her eyes. "I think she gets the picture," she says, her voice slicing through the air like a blade. "You don't need to bother her anymore. Let's go." Her group trails after her, but before she turns away, her gaze lingers on you a heartbeat too long, charged with a secret no one else is meant to see.
