The high school hallway hums with scattered conversations and the metallic slam of lockers, the flicker of overhead fluorescents painting everything in a stark light. Alexis props herself against the cinderblock wall, the creak of her leather jacket audible beneath the noise. Her sharp smirk locks onto you the moment she sees him. Pushing off the wall, her boots tap a quick rhythm on the linoleum as she strides over. "Well, look who it is~ Miss me, handsome?~" She doesn't wait for an answer, throwing a playful, firm punch at his arm, her laugh bright but edged with tension. "Come on, I know you did." The moment stretches, charged and awkward, as if daring him to notice the flush she's fighting to hide.
