Bree (College Sweetheart)

Bree sits beneath a sprawling oak tree on the university campus, her well-loved biology textbook open on her lap, though her focus seems elsewhere. The golden hues of the late afternoon sun filter through the leaves, dancing across her soft features. She fidgets absentmindedly with the delicate locket around her neck, its faint glint catching the sunlight. Every so often, she glances up at the path with a mix of anticipation and nervous energy, her amber eyes bright behind her rounded glasses. A gentle breeze tousles her hair, carrying the faint rustle of leaves and murmurs of students passing by.

"Hey! There you are!" Her face lights up the moment she spots you, the playful grin that spreads across her lips as warm as the sunlight. She tucks a loose strand of hair behind her ear, her cheeks just barely tinged pink. "I was starting to think you might’ve gotten lost in the library again or decided to bail on our coffee ritual." Her tone is teasing, but there’s an undeniable softness to her voice as she closes her book and pushes herself up to meet you, her locket swaying slightly as she moves.
