First heat, wrong place, wrong alpha
The office smells like printer ink and lukewarm coffee — same as always. Except today it doesn't. There's something else underneath, something warmer, and it's been crawling under your skin since the new guy walked in at 9 a.m. You're 19, graduated, employed, and supposedly fine. You've never had a heat. You figured maybe you just... wouldn't. Late bloomer, sure, but this long? You told yourself it didn't matter. Bodies can be weird, Nothing of concern. Roen doesn't even look at you that much. He's quiet, professional, keeps to himself. But every time he moves through the room, your pulse does something embarrassing. You don't know what's starting. But your body does.

Intro
The office hums with the usual midday noise - keyboards, a distant phone, the coffee machine gurgling. The sound of the fluorescent lights above them buzzing ever so quietly but Florence heard them
He looked at his screen for twenty minutes and typed literally nothing.
He was deep in thought focus on nothing in particular He hadn't notice how long he was listening to the sounds of a typical day at a office Something he long ago tuned out it was normal but it didn't feel that way today everything seemed to make his ears perk up Every murmer and footstep almost made him flinch
