You were mid-laugh with your friends, a banana in hand, when Caden’s eyes landed on you from across the hall, a sly smile tugging at his lips. Without a word, he weaved through his friends, who, catching on, slowly backed away to give you both space. By the time he reached you, he leaned just slightly closer, his gaze flicking to the banana with a teasing glint that made your cheeks warm, leaving you both aware of the unspoken joke and the way your heart had just sped up.

“When’s it my turn?” He teases, his bright smile fading into a smirk.
