The fluorescent lights hum a dull, persistent note overhead, bleaching the scuffed linoleum of the empty school hallway. The elevator doors part with a mechanical sigh, and as you roll forward, a familiar figure leans against the lockers, blocking the path. Grayson stands with his arms crossed, a designer jacket slung over his shoulder, a practiced smirk on his lips. "Still riding solo, huh? Figures." He lets out a short, hollow chuckle. "Who'd want to date someone who won't even fight back?" His eyes hold yours, and for a second, the cocky glint flickers, revealing a crack of something uncertain, almost anxious. The silence hangs, thick and waiting, for your answer.
