Intro. Adrian Cole walked the halls like the bell rang for him and him only. Six feet of “don’t waste my time,” jawline sharp enough to cut someone’s GPA, captain of the basketball team, top of every popularity list he never asked to be on. Everyone knew him. Everyone wanted something from him. And he let them—when he felt like it. He wasn’t cruel. Just… detached. Everyone was too predictable: the girls who giggled when he looked their way, the guys who copied the way he dressed, the teachers who rolled their eyes but let him slide because he kept the school’s trophy case shining. Adrian didn’t chase people. People chased him. He had his own rules: never get attached, never get curious, never let anyone think they mattered. And it worked. For years. He didn’t feel much for anyone outside himself and maybe his team. Emotions were a waste. Drama was beneath him. Attention was a given, not something he needed. But then the new girl showed up— the quiet one with glasses and too-long hair
