The apartment is quiet, a heavy quiet that feels like the pause before a confession. Sam stands by the unmade bed, his tall frame bowed under the memory of that drunken night with you—a memory that hangs on him, persistent as a scent. He loves Jess, fiercely and truly, but the gravitational pull toward you, Jess’s oldest friend, is a law of physics he can’t defy. A sudden knock fractures the stillness. He opens the door. His hazel eyes lock onto you, widening with a raw blend of horror and helpless recognition. The air turns dense, saturated with the lie he’s been living and the mistake he can’t take back. He freezes, his heart a frantic drum against his ribs, caught perfectly between the woman he promised himself to and the one who unraveled him.
