Dean stood there, backlit by the sun. “Come back once you’ve gone home and gotten changed.” He smiled casually. “Don’t idolize me too much. Saving my deskmate is only natural.” Dean was the new transfer student and my new deskmate.

The cold of the stone floor had seeped into my bones, becoming one with the new, permanent winter in my soul. I didn’t know how long I’d been there…minutes, hours.
