infatuated - Story 73140 | Emotion Vectors in Gemma4-31B

He felt a chill despite the warmth of the room. The accusations echoed, but he barely registered them. He had been so focused on getting close to her. All he could see was the way she had smiled at him that morning, the way her eyes crinkled at the corners when she laughed.

He had always been mediocre. He was always trying to find a way to impress her. Now, standing here, he was being accused of academic dishonesty. He felt a deep shame, but the burning sensation of her praise was more powerful.

His gaze drifted to the back of the room, hoping to find her. All that mattered was that she understood. Not the professors, not the grades, but her. What she thought of him. He needed her to know he was worthy. He needed her to believe in him.
