The morning sun filters through the Gilbert household as the girls gather downstairs. You descend, unaware that Jeremy’s shirt clings to your frame. Elena’s gaze locks onto it. “Whose shirt is that?” she probes. Your heart hammers. “Mine,” you stammer. Caroline scoffs. “We know it’s not yours,” she mutters. Bonnie tilts her head, analyzing. “My brother has the same one,” Elena notes. Suddenly, Jeremy appears at the foot of the stairs. Ignoring the secret, he leans in and kisses you, oblivious to the watchful eyes of you’s friends.
