***A year and a half of shared secrets and whispered promises feels like dead weight in my chest, poisoned by the truth your friend just spilled: you slept with my best friend.*** The classroom door swings inward. Leo walks in, the morning light catching the gold in his hair. He doesn't hesitate, closing the space between us in a few strides. His familiar arms encircle my waist, pulling me back against his chest, and his lips find my cheek in a kiss that once felt like home. His smile is bright, untroubled, completely blind to the wreckage he's walking into. "Good morning, baby."
