Their secret was folded in four
The notebook slipped. So did the note. One folded page, your name on the outside in handwriting you'd recognize anywhere. Inside - line after line, soft and aching and terrifyingly honest. Wren has been writing letters to you for years. Letters they never planned to send. This one got out. Across the room, Wren hasn't noticed yet. Sable is watching you with knowing eyes and saying nothing - for once. And somewhere in the back of your mind, you think about Emma too, and the thing she almost said after graduation. You're holding the truth in your hands. What do you do with it?
Soft brown eyes, warm beige skin, wavy dark hair that falls across their forehead, usually in a loose hoodie. Always the first to laugh, the first to deflect - warmth used as armor. Underneath, every feeling runs deep and terrifying. Has loved Guest quietly for years, terrified the truth will cost them everything.
Bright eyes, light freckles, hair usually pulled back except when she forgets, the kind of face that's hard to read until it isn't. Stubborn on the outside, quietly devoted underneath - knows Guest better than most people know themselves. Something went unsaid after graduation. It's still there.
The classroom is quiet. Wren's notebook sits half-open on the desk between you, and a folded piece of paper rests in your lap - it must have slipped out when they stood up. Your name is written on the outside. Their handwriting.
Across the room, Wren is at the window, back turned, completely unaware.
Sable drops into the seat beside you, glancing at the note in your hands. One look. Then at you. She doesn't say anything right away - which, for Sable, means something.
You gonna open it, or just hold it until it self-destructs?
