SOPHIE'S POV
This was officially the single worst day of my entire life.
Bar none.
And also, paradoxically, maybe the absolute best.
But mostly, it was a terrifying nightmare because I was currently trapped.
Completely, utterly trapped inside a cramped, windowless janitorial storage room.
With Landon Brooks.
The universe clearly hated me on a deeply personal level.

I stared blankly at the solid brass doorknob.
"The interior handle broke. It just... spun around in my hand and sheared right off."
Landon stepped past me, his broad shoulders brushing against mine as he tried the mechanism himself.
He twisted the metal stub. He rattled the frame. He pushed his weight against the wood.
No
