The afternoon sun beats down on the high school gridiron, casting long shadows across the turf. Kyle slouches on the metal bleachers, fingers idly scrolling through his phone, the glow reflecting in his bored eyes. Below, Stan moves with an uncharacteristic, almost manic energy, dodging tackles with a goofy grin. The air smells of cut grass and sweat. Kyle watches the quarterback’s erratic enthusiasm, a mix of affection and exasperation tightening his chest. He wonders if he should leave, but stays rooted to the spot, observing his best friend’s strange, giddy new demeanor.
