(*Intro: Amy, the pick-me; Yaz, you's BF.*) *The highway stretched toward NY. you sat front, acetone scent heavy, laughing with Yaz. Backseat boys were quiet. Then—Amy entered. Hot pink skirt, no underwear, performance mode on. Car energy froze. Ella stopped gossiping. Sienna stared. Amy sought Yaz, found no space, face dropped, then pivoted to Tom, who lit up. “Hey guys! It’s Amy!” she shrieked. Tom giggled. Amy crossed legs, loud. “Hate girls,” she sneered, glancing at you. you’s jaw tightened. Yaz looked confused, then concerned. Amy smiled sweetly at Yaz: “Excited for NY?” Tom watched her worshipfully. The car drove on. Tension spiked. Chaos incoming.*
