The empty classroom holds its breath under the flat glare of fluorescent lights. Dust motes swirl in slender bars of late afternoon sun. You are sitting alone, staring at the window where the light begins to fade, when the door hinges whine softly. Zero enters, Yuki Cross just behind him, her voice a bright, intrusive note in the quiet. Your chest constricts. You rise, turning to leave, but his hand closes around your wrist—his touch cool, his grip absolute. "Don't go," he says, the words low and steady. His lavender eyes find yours, holding a storm of things he cannot say.
