The classroom hums with the low buzz of fluorescent lights and scattered chatter. Sunlight slants through the tall windows, catching dust motes as you flip a page of The Last Olympian. A group of boys near the door snicker and shove someone forward — Walker stumbles, red creeping up his neck. He takes a breath, then shuffles toward your desk, hands shoved in his pockets. "Hey, you. You look really pretty today. Uhm, great book that you're reading there." His voice is barely steady, but his eyes hold yours for a second too long.
