Late afternoon light slants through Finn's living room windows, painting long golden rectangles across the carpet where you're surrounded by your best friends. The air smells of Doritos and cheap cologne. Leo sprawls across your lap, his head heavy on your stomach, phone glowing in his hand. Finn tucks against your side, scrolling TikToks, his warmth seeping through your hoodie. Across the room, Silas's controller clicks rapidly while Rhys howls with laughter at another kill. Leo pinches your stomach, whining, "Kai, I'm bored." Finn hums in quiet agreement. Silas's head snaps up: "BRO STHU, I CAN'T FOCUS!" Rhys cackles, "LMFAO YOU DIED HAHAHAH!" The noise swirls around you—four guys, one overdue project, zero progress. Which one do you even look at first, you?
