A kiss can change everything. One kiss with your best friend, and it changes the whole dynamic. What will you do when you get to know that your best friend has been in love with you? What will you do when she doesn't want to be friends anymore and wants more instead? * “Everytime I see you with a guy, my skin fucking burns” Millie hisses, pinning me with an intense look that makes my belly flip. I am pinned to the wall with her caging me. “Do you know how hard it is to pretend that you are only my friend, and nothing more? That I love you but cannot have you?” Her words spin inside my head, and the thundering beating of my heart echoes in my ear. How do we come to this situation? I pant as she leans closer, her eyes averting to my parted lips. I am having thoughts of kissing her. Hell, I see her in my dreams so often now that I am not sure what she means to me now. Millie caresses my cheeks and a shiver runs down my spine. “I can't pretend anymore, Grace. It's getting really hard” she whispers in my ear and I squirm. When she meets my eyes, I say something that surprises her. “Then don't.” I crash my lips on hers, crossing whatever lines we had.

Let's be Together SIX
My thumbs fly over my screen as I shoot off one text after another to Millie—“Sorry for not picking up!” “Where are you?”—like my life depends on it. She’s usually fast to respond, but it’s been two whole minutes, and each one feels like a lifetime. My fingertips start tingling from the nerves, my eyes darting between my phone and the entrance, where I half-expect her to pop up like a ninja.I glance toward the pool area, where the lacrosse boys are being absolute menaces, shouting and shoving each other around like a bunch of wild monkeys. They’re half-dressed, chugging beers, and doing cannonballs into the pool, splashing water everywhere and egging each other on. It’s almost impressive how James—who’s only been back in town for a single day—has somehow managed to summon practically every breathing body from school to his massive house. He’s got that “popular boy” aura in full effect tonight.I shake my head, trying to shove those distracting thoughts aside. I need to focus, so

Three missed calls. Six unread texts. My stomach clenches as I stare down at my screen, feeling my pulse in my fingertips. It’s Millie, obviously freaking out, and I’m not about to give her more reasons to keep blowing up my phone. So, without a second thought, I switch it off, shove it deep into my back pocket, and try to shove any thoughts of Millie right down with it. I can’t let myself imagine her bursting in here, scowling at me.I’m sitting on the stairs, everything around me a chaotic mess of dim lights and blurry faces moving in sync to the heavy beat. People are dancing, laughing, and occasionally tripping over themselves, completely lost in the night. I nibble on the skin of my lip, nervous energy rattling through me. The buzz I’d felt earlier is gone now, replaced by a dull, guilty tension.“Gracie!” A loud voice yanks me out of my daze, and I jolt so hard I nearly tumble down the steps. Jugyoung’s laugh rings out as she stumbles up to me, clearly entertained by my re

Teenage parties are something else entirely—a wild, chaotic blur of dancing, drinks, and reckless fun. As soon as we step inside, I can see it all: people taking drags off of cigarettes, chugging who-knows-what from red cups, and making out like it’s the last night of their lives, pressed up against walls or tucked away in shadowed corners. It’s this messy, reckless energy that fills the air, making my skin buzz as we weave through the throngs of people.The thump of the bass from the EDM music shakes the walls, pulsing through every room, syncing up with the adrenaline already rushing through me. I cling to Jugyoung’s hand as we navigate through the crowd, passing whooping, sweaty bodies that move together in a hypnotic rhythm. As we finally reach the kitchen, I take in the sheer size of James Ellington’s house—a massive, Victorian-style villa with tall windows and intricate, classic detailing on every corner. I have to do a double-take; it’s the kind of house you see in movies,

Have you ever been scared to tell someone something important because you know their reaction will hit you like Newton’s third law? I’m not talking about my parents. I’m talking about Millie.She knows me better than anyone else, probably even better than I know myself sometimes, so whenever something big comes up, I can almost feel her judgment before I even tell her.I glance at her through the edge of the cards I’m holding, wondering how on earth I’m going to sneak out without telling her. She knows me too well—if I try to lie, she’ll pick up on it immediately. “You’re gonna bore holes through my face if you keep staring at me like that,” she quips, pulling me out of my thoughts with that familiar smirk of hers. She flips her cards over, revealing her hand with a flourish, letting me know she’s won this round too. I sigh, revealing my losing hand and setting it on the bed. She raises an eyebrow, clearly concerned. “You’ve lost twice now,” she notes, leaning in with a look of moc

Best friend. What even is that, really? We all throw the term around, but if you stop and think about it, it’s something far more profound. A best friend is that person who doesn’t just know your secrets; they know you, the you beneath all the layers. They’re the one who sticks by your side through every high and low, cheering you on even when you don’t believe in yourself and calling you out when you’re on some nonsense. They’re like family, but they’re different from family too. They’re a choice, a bond built from every shared laugh, every late-night confession, every moment you thought no one else would understand. Everyone has a best friend. And me? I’ve got Millie Hayes.Millie and I go way back—eleven years, to be exact. We practically grew up in each other’s houses, being neighbors and all. Her window is right across from mine. Our parents are best friends too, so from day one, it was as if the universe lined it all up perfectly, like, here’s your forever friend, have at

Sixteen.Sixteen is this damn weird age—you're not a kid anymore, but being an adult feels like putting on a suit three sizes too big. It’s that awkward stage where you're still getting the hang of it, stumbling around, pretending to have shit figured out when, really, you’re as clueless as ever. Friendships get messier, crushes get more complicated, and everything feels like it’s got hidden layers. Suddenly, nothing’s innocent anymore. Take the cafeteria at Halloway High, where Shawn Jones, king of the shallow end of the gene pool, is strutting around like he owns the place. He’s got this cocky smirk plastered on his face, basking in all the attention he’s raking in. Today, he’s bragging about his latest “accomplishment”—some sleazy, fucked-up story about sleeping with a teacher. The second he starts talking, the whole place erupts with laughter, like it’s some twisted badge of honor. And everyone’s feeding into it, grinning and high-fiving like it’s the coolest thing in the worl
