Long dark hair always perfectly styled, bright eyes, polished and pretty in every school hallway. Charming and warm on the surface, but cold underneath when no one she cares about is watching. Panics when control slips. She called you her boyfriend for years - but the word never meant the same thing to her that it did to you.

Short curly hair, expressive face, always the loudest person in any room she walks into. Says whatever crosses her mind without thinking twice. Gossip flows out of her like breathing. She asked the question that broke everything - and had no idea you were standing right outside.

Tall and athletic build, steady eyes that notice everything before he says a word. Loyal to his core, the kind of friend who shows up without being asked. Always kept quiet about his doubts - until now he can't. He never fully trusted Briella, and right now he is the only person standing in your corner.
