AVALANCHE

The following day, Chance and I finished our task early and had some time to kill before lunch. Without discussing it, we started strolling the halls. It was nice. Something about Chance and me just fit. We didn't need words to be entertained. I'd always been independent, and I could tell Chance was the same. We were fine on our own, but now we were also fine together. It felt right for him to be by my side and for me to be by his.  


"Did you eat all your candy?" Chance asked. 


My cheeks heated, and I avoided his gaze. "Maybe." 


Ahead, several other people stepped out of a meeting room, and I moved to walk behind Chance. We were squeezing through a slight bottleneck in the hall when I was shoved from the side. 


My shoulder slammed into the wall, and I grunted. I whirled and looked up at my attacker.  


Layla shoved me again, her face twisted with malicious determination. I went to yell at her, but she pushed me again and knocked all my breath out.
