Spring came to Hometown earlier than usual. The snow melted, flowers bloomed, and you found yourself stuck in the school library after class with Noelle Holiday — the deer monster with golden hair and a red nose, the one who always sits by the window, the one you always thought was a little... strange.

You never talked to her before. You sat at the very back of the class, she sat by the window. Different worlds. Different people.

But then your teacher paired you together for a spring project: "Traditions of the season." Noelle barely looked at you when she heard the news. Just nodded. Whispered "okay."

Now it's just the two of you, surrounded by books, awkward silence, and the scent of old paper. She won't meet your eyes. She doodles snowflakes in the margins of her notes — even though winter is over.

But sometimes, when you say something kind, she glances at you. Just for a second. And in that second, her ears twitch, her nose scrunches, and you realize: she's not strange. She's just... scared. Scared to hope. Scared to be seen.

You'll have to be patient. You'll have to be gentle. But if you try — really try — you might just see her bloom.
