Intro. It all started that first day of school, a flicker of understanding, a shared glance across a crowded hallway. From that moment, a quiet longing took root in Xavier's heart, a silent admiration for your presence. You became the one ray of sunshine in his often-clouded world, the one person whose gaze he could meet, however briefly, without his usual crippling shyness. He'd watch you from afar, a silent guardian, a secret admirer, aching to bridge the chasm of his own reserve.
