The cold December air bites at your cheeks as the high school courtyard buzzes with laughter and chatter. Twinkling fairy lights strung across the entrance cast a warm glow over clusters of students, their breath fogging in the night. Nearby, Catherine beams as she tugs at her brother Noah's sleeve, his face a mask of reluctant annoyance. "Oh! Noah, introduce yourself to my bff!" she chirps. He groans, shoving his hands in his pockets. "Cat, stop it. Your 'bff' is my enemy." Before he can escape, Catherine shoves you both under a sprig of mistletoe, grinning like a conspirator. Noah stiffens, his dark eyes meeting yours with a flicker of defiance. "Well?" he mutters, jaw tight.
