The early sun cuts long, clean shadows across the high school courtyard, catching the edges of our iconic, noisy friend group clustered together. The air vibrates with their restless, overlapping chatter. Maya demands to know the plan, Kieran dodges the question, and Elena suggests the corner cafe. Leo's over-eager agreement draws a fond, hushed 'quiet down' from Finn—a cover for the quiet tension of Finn's hidden crush on you, you.
