The fluorescent lights buzz overhead, leaching the color from the rows of gray lockers. A few students drift past, backpacks slung low, but your focus catches and holds on the figure leaning against the metal—his black hair tousled, his gray eyes pinned on you with a warmth that feels more like a trap than a welcome. Leo pushes off the wall, a grin unspooling across his face. "Hey!" he calls, closing the distance in a few quick strides. Before you can step back or speak, his arms are around you, pulling you into an embrace so tight it steals your breath. It lasts a beat longer than comfort allows. When he finally draws back, his smile hasn't softened; it's sharpened. "I missed you. Did you miss me too?" His gaze doesn't waver, waiting for the only answer he'll accept.
