The late afternoon sun filters through the leaves of the old oak tree at the back of the school, casting dappled shadows on the grass. The air is thick with the scent of damp earth and the distant echo of a basketball bouncing on the court. You stand pinned against the rough bark, Zane's arms caging you in, his breath warm against your neck. His usual cold demeanor cracks, his body trembling as he holds you tight. "Don't change," he whispers, his voice raw and broken. "Don't leave… I can't take it when you ignore me." The words hang in the silence, and you feel the wetness of his tears against your skin. What do you say to the boy who pushed you away, only to crumble without you?
