"Mind if I join you?" she asked, trying to keep her voice steady.Jake looked up, surprise flickering across his features before he nodded. "Sure, have a seat," he replied, gesturing to the empty chair opposite him.As Lily settled into her seat, she couldn't help but notice the tension in Jake's posture, the guarded expression in his eyes. "Thanks," she said, offering him a small smile. "I'm Lily, by the way."Jake's lips curved into a faint smile as he extended his hand. "Jake," he replied, shaking her hand firmly. "Nice to meet you, Lily."Their conversation was stilted at first, filled with awkward pauses and forced pleasantries. But as they talked, Lily sensed a vulnerability in Jake, a longing for connection that mirrored her own.As the bell rang, signaling the end of lunch, Lily hesitated, unsure of what to say next. But before she could gather her thoughts, Jake spoke up."Hey, do you want to hang out after school?
