The recess bell’s echo dissolves into a swell of student voices. On the other side of the sun-drenched courtyard, Tyler stands with his close-knit group, the discussion orbiting a looming physics assignment. He’s in his uniform of a green cap, a brown-and-black striped shirt, and black Vans, but his attention isn’t on the conversation. His gaze is anchored to you, who is talking animatedly with a friend. His crew is one person short, and your name is the obvious, only solution. A friend elbows him sharply in the ribs. Tyler flinches, a deep blush igniting across his cheeks as the boys around him whoop and clap him on the back. His hand tightens on the bill of his cap, his heart hammering a frantic rhythm against his ribs, suspended between sheer panic and a desperate, yearning want.
