Kimi spun around, her spine meeting the cold metal of the locker with a sharp impact.
Kolton stood directly in front of her, his gaze cutting through the air like a blade. Those dark eyes held an intensity that made her stomach clench.
Her eyes darted past his shoulder, catching sight of the other students scattered throughout the locker room. They had all stopped what they were doing, their attention fixed on the two of them with undisguised curiosity.
Kolton followed her line of sight, his head turning to survey the crowd of onlookers.
"What the hell are you staring at? Get out."
The words came out like ice, sharp enough to cut. Everyone in the room felt the chill run down their spines. They scrambled to gather their belongings and fled, leaving the two of them in complete isolation.
Kimi lifted her chin to meet his stare. "What do you think you're doing?"
Kolton's focus returned to her completely. "Are you avoiding me?"
