The aroma of freshly brewed coffee, usually a comfort, felt electric. Sarah practically bounced down the hall towards their dorm room, a wide, goofy grin plastered across her face. Sunlight streamed through the open window, illuminating dust motes dancing in the air.

She found Liam hunched over his laptop, eyes glued to the screen. "Hey!" she chirped, the word coming out a little higher-pitched than usual. "What's up?"

Liam startled, nearly jumping out of his chair. He mumbled something about an assignment. Sarah, practically vibrating with pent-up energy, couldn't stop herself from humming a jaunty little tune as she gathered her books. Everything felt… bright.
