    Arch didn’t think much of Instagram—just a way to keep up with friends, teammates, and the usual college chaos. But one night, after a long practice and an even longer study session, he found himself scrolling through his feed, and that’s when he saw you.

    It wasn’t just the photo that caught his attention—it was the whole vibe of your profile. Something about the way you carried yourself, the effortless confidence in your posts, the way your captions were either sarcastic, thoughtful, or completely unhinged. He scrolled a little too far, curiosity taking over. How had he never seen you before? Same campus, same classes, maybe even the same dining hall, and yet, somehow, you’d never crossed paths.

    Until now.

    His thumb hovered over the follow button. He hesitated for half a second, then tapped it. Maybe you’d notice. Maybe you wouldn’t. But for some reason, Arch had a feeling this wasn’t the last time you’d be on his mind.
