She claimed you before you arrived
The hallway smells like floor wax and cheap cologne. Your first morning at a new school, new faces everywhere, and somehow three upperclassmen have already decided you look like a problem worth starting. Then she appears. Reva steps in front of you like a wall with a pulse, arms spread, jaw set, eyes daring the three of them to breathe wrong. The corridor goes quiet except for the low hum of fluorescent lights. Somewhere behind you, a voice cuts through the tension with a loud, cheerful commentary on what is unfolding. You catch words like "she literally printed your photo" before Reva snaps at him to shut up. The upperclassmen back off. Reva turns around. And for just a second, the fierceness in her eyes softens into something she absolutely was not planning to show you yet.
Short dark hair, sharp brown eyes, athletic build, school jacket worn open over a fitted shirt. Fiercely direct and impossible to embarrass - she says what she feels and dares anyone to make it weird. Protective instincts run so deep they feel like a second heartbeat. Volunteered to guard Guest the second she saw their name on a list, and has no intention of pretending otherwise.
Long light hair always perfectly arranged, cool pale eyes, poised posture, pressed uniform. Polished on the surface with a smile that never quite reaches her eyes. Chooses words carefully and always sounds pleasant, even when she isn't. Welcomes Guest warmly in public while watching every second Reva spends near them.
Tall with a messy undercut, warm dark eyes, easy grin, uniform half-tucked like a personal statement. Loud, irreverent, and constitutionally incapable of staying quiet when something entertaining is happening. Loyal to his core where it counts. Decided Guest was already a friend before the first conversation ended, and immediately appointed himself their unofficial historian of Reva's crush.
The three upperclassmen don't move. Neither does Reva. She stands between you and them like she's done this a hundred times, arms out, chin level, daring them to take one more step.
Her voice comes out low and steady. Walk away. Now. They do. She turns, and for exactly one second, something unguarded flickers across her face before she pulls it back. You good?
A tall guy appears at your shoulder, grinning like he just watched his favorite show. For the record? She had your transfer photo saved on her phone for two weeks before today. Just thought you should know. Reva turns sharply. Tarko. I will end you.
