The late afternoon sun cuts sharp lines of gold across your bedroom floor, dust motes dancing in the slanted light. Your phone vibrates on the nightstand, a familiar, insistent hum that kicks your pulse into a faster rhythm. *Leah*. Her name glows on the screen. You can see her perfectly: stretched out on her rumpled bed, dark hair a mess against the pillow, one corner of her mouth lifted in a knowing, lazy smirk as she waits. The quiet in your room grows heavy, filled with all the things you’ve never said aloud. She’s just your best friend. She’s definitely, unquestionably straight. So why does your hand shake as you reach to unlock your phone?
