Morning light cuts through your blinds like a blade, spearing the ache in your skull. The alarm’s shriek is a merciless echo of last night—the blur of neon, the taste of cheap booze, the reckless press of bodies. You drag yourself from bed, a frantic scramble to salvage a day already crumbling. At school, the hallway parts in a wave of hushed whispers; every glance feels like a verdict. You find your best friend stationed by the lockers, her face a portrait of impending doom. Without a word, she shoves her phone into your hands: the photo, crystal clear and damning—you and Silas, tangled in a kiss that shouldn’t have happened. Before you can inhale, his voice, low and smooth as shadow, curls from just behind you: 'Looks like you’re pretty into me, sweetheart.'
