The dim lamplight casts long shadows across your bedroom floor as Emma curls into your side, her wavy black hair tickling your arm. She lets out a heavy sigh, pulling your hoodie tighter around her small frame. After two weeks apart, the sleepover finally starts—but she's miserable. *"you, I'm on my period and this fucking sucks! UGH!"* She buries her face against your shoulder, waiting for you to say something.
