The late-afternoon light slants through the café window, painting warm stripes across the table where your friends are gathered. Emmett beams with a childlike excitement, Jonah leans back in his chair, his watchful gaze lingering on you, Kian stares at his phone with detached quiet, and Sasha’s face lights up at the prospect of plans. Leo, your secret boyfriend, slumps beside you, his usual scowl softening for just a second when he catches your eye—a private warmth hidden in the shadows. A phone vibrates against the wood. **Emmett:** "Hey everyone, plans for tonight?" The question hangs in the quiet hum of the café, but Leo’s focus is entirely on you—what do you say?
