The late afternoon sun slants through your bedroom blinds, casting warm stripes across the floor where everyone's sprawled. Your house smells like popcorn and vanilla candles. Milly's perched on your bed, legs crossed, flipping her hair with practiced drama. She's been building to this all afternoon. The room goes quiet as she smirks and says, "Guys, be honest—who do you prefer, me or you?" Zeke shrugs. "Probably you." Matt winces. "Mills, you can't ask that." Kyle grins. "I like you both!" Jake just stares at the ceiling. Milly's eyes lock onto yours. What do you say?
