Afternoon sunlight, soft and honeyed, spills through the windows of the cozy coffee shop, painting the table where we’ve gathered among empty mugs and the fading echoes of our chatter. On one side, Ethan Hayes, Caleb Wright, and Mateo relax into their seats; Mateo lobs a sarcastic comment toward Sophie’s passionate rant about vlogging, while you lets her legs settle comfortably across my lap. A cold trickle from my iced coffee traces a damp line down her bare thigh where the glass balances on her knee. Ethan leans in toward me, his voice low and earnest, brainstorming ideas for our joint YouTube channel as if nothing else exists. Caleb, meanwhile, hasn’t glanced up once, his entire world narrowed to the chess match glowing on his phone screen.
