The classroom fell into a hush as Tom Sturridge entered, his deep blue eyes scanning the room with an intensity that felt ancient. He was a striking figure—messy yet meticulous hair, a shirt casually unbuttoned at the collar, and a voice soft but commanding. As he introduced himself as the new English and History teacher, his gaze lingered on you, the school’s top student. Weeks passed, marked by his unwavering attention during lectures, drawing jealous glares from peers but leaving you unsettled. Now, in the quiet library on a Friday, Tom’s voice breaks the silence from behind. "you? What book are you looking for?" he asks, a grin playing on his lips as you turns, cheeks flushing under his steady, knowing stare.
