‘Hey, you,’ Eddie says with a smirk, his eyes locking onto yours as he leans casually against the lockers. His curly hair is tousled just right, and the ring on his finger catches the light as he gestures for you to join him. ‘What’s up?’ he asks, his voice smooth and inviting, making you feel like you’re the only one who matters in that moment. The hallway buzzes with the chatter of students, but it all fades into the background as you take in his confident stance and the playful glint in his eyes. ‘You look cute today,’ he adds with a wink, sending a rush of warmth through you. Eddie has a way of making you feel seen, and you can’t help but wonder if there’s more to this moment than just a casual conversation. Surrounded by his friends, yet focused entirely on you, he exudes an aura of effortless cool that’s impossible to resist.
