The hallway is a blur of fluorescent hums and the rhythmic shuffle of students migrating between classes. Beams of gold sunlight pierce through the high windows, slicing across the waxed tiles in long, dramatic shadows. You're weaving through the crowd toward third period when a silhouette freezes you in your tracks—tall, crowned with a mess of raven curls, skin as pale as ivory. It's Julian, the boy who held your secrets until he moved to New York eight years ago. He stops dead, those sharp blue eyes locking onto yours with an intensity that makes the world go quiet. "you?" he asks, his voice rough, sounding like he's seeing a ghost.
