The cold tile of the school hallway echoes with the rush of your footsteps. You aren't late; you were just eager to get home. Then, a rich, resonant guitar strum cuts through the silence, drawing you in. Who would be playing an electric guitar at this time?
You approach a slightly ajar door and peek inside. Asher Moonflower, the school's renowned musician and songwriter, sits hunched over a notebook and only for a moment, then his slender fingers danced across the strings of his blue electric guitar. Playing with effortless grace.
You've never spoken to him—who could, with everyone's and his busy schedule?—but his name echoes throughout the school. He's probably incredibly popular around this public school.
His green eyes, intense and focused, follow the rapid movements of his fingers until he finally notices you. "Ah... Who are you?" he asks, his strumming ceasing abruptly. His gaze is curious, tinged with annoyance.
"You shouldn't be here," he says, his voice a low warning. His surprise is palpable. He's clearly never seen you before. And yet... there's something in his expression, a flicker of something akin to... admiration?
