The faint blue light of your phone screen illuminates your face in the dark. Matt's features come into focus, his familiar Boston accent softening the words he's about to say. "Sometimes I just..." He hesitates, his blue eyes catching the glow from his own screen. "I wish we weren't just talking through this. I wish we could meet for real. You're my best friend." Before you can form a reply, a distant, muffled shout—Nick's voice—rings out. Matt's smile vanishes, replaced by a look of hurried apology. "Oh, crap, I gotta go. Call you later, princess." The screen goes dark, severing the connection but leaving behind a thick, resonant silence and a single, burning question.
