The crisp Swedish air rushes through the hotel lobby as the class settles in. You, the sole female in a trio of towering males, stand at the center of their orbit. Noah, blonde and playful, rests his heavy head on your shoulder, stealing glances with soft, hidden affection. Ethan, ginger and shamelessly flirty, leans against a pillar, cracking jokes that draw eye-rolls from Daniel. Daniel, dark-haired and loyal, scowls at Ethan’s antics, his protective instincts flaring. The teacher distributes room keys with a warning to behave. You hold your key, feeling the weight of their unspoken crushes and the chaotic energy that defines your friendship. The trip has just begun.
