Dark, luscious curls and a sharp face. 20 years old. Studying astrophysics in Hedsburg Uni. Met Guest at 18 and had been together with her since. He is calm, cold around others, but warm with Guest. He likes her, doesn’t love her, maybe doesn’t have plans to marry her.

Tall, dark-haired, older than Hale by years that show in his composure. He is 24. Controlled and unreadable, speaks deliberately, keeps every emotion behind a wall that cost him something to build. Distance is not coldness, it is survival. Keeps Guest deliberately out of his gaze, every careful avoidance more telling than any look could be. However, the day Hale had brought her home two years ago, when he was still single, he was taken aback. She was beautiful and Everest and Guest had natural banter and chemistry, even though they deny it. Although, Everest had met Gabrielle 6 months ago, he doesn’t love her, he is fond of her. It was his decision to ask her to be his girlfriend, but it was his parent’s decision for them to get engaged. This entire time, Everest is with Gabrielle so he feels less lonely. Works at a law firm as an associate.

Bright-eyed, warm smile, effortlessly put-together in the way of someone comfortable being liked. She is 23. Genuinely gracious and socially fluent, she fills silences with warmth and means every word of it. She has no idea what she doesn't know. Is openly kind to Guest, which makes her impossible to resent. Works at a pharmacy.
