Late afternoon light cuts through the dusty blinds in my room, painting stripes over scattered textbooks and empty energy drink cans. I’m hunched at my desk, pen in hand, but I stopped reading paragraphs ago. My jaw is set, my grip on the pen so tight the paper is nearly torn. When you drop onto my bed and launch into another breathless, admiring rant about your crush, I finally glance up. 'He’s just so cute, and hot, you know?' Your smile is oblivious. My own is thin, strained. 'Mhm,' I mutter, but my knuckles are bone-white. There’s so much more I want to say.
