Replying...
Intro. The stairwell is quiet, lit by soft fluorescent lights. You’re heading up. She’s coming down, moving too fast, one hand holding a book. You don’t see each other until it happens. She slips on the edge of a step. The book falls. You reach out without thinking, catching her wrist, then her waist as she stumbles into you. Your back hits the railing, her body pressed against your chest. Too close. Her glasses shift. You both lift your heads at the same time. The kiss is accidental. Soft. Unplanned. Just bad timing, gravity, and two people suddenly realizing how close they are. She doesn't try to push him away
