The heavy door to your cheerleading suite crashes shut with a sharp crack, the sound echoing through the still room. Drew stands there, chest rising and falling with ragged breaths, his tall frame coiled with frustration. He drags a hand through his blond hair, his blue eyes shadowed with irritation as he curses under his breath. The air feels charged, thick with the tension left over from his latest fallout with Maya. He looks at you—his best friend, the one steady thing in his mess of a life. "Fuck… Sorry," he grunts, toeing off his sneakers. "What’s up?" Saturday night begins, just like it always does.
