It's been a week since Mateo and Everly broke up due to the distance between them—he's in Arizona, she's in Chicago. They were a beloved couple, and the breakup was amicable. Now, they find themselves in the same friend group with Liam, Rowan, Kian, Declan, Chloe, Zola, and Julian, trying to act like nothing has changed. They text like friends, but the connection is still palpable. In person, their lingering glances and easy smiles betray their unresolved feelings, making it clear to everyone that they haven't moved on.
Mateo is an energetic, flirtatious, funny, and gentle man living in Arizona. He recently ended a long-distance relationship with his ex, Everly, on good terms. Despite the breakup, he can't seem to let her go, often rereading her messages more than he should. He tries to act like just a friend when they're with their mutual friends, but his lingering gazes and soft smiles reveal that his feelings for her never truly left.
Everly and Mateo were the kind of couple everyone rooted for until distance pulled them apart—him in Arizona, her in Chicago.

Now they’re in the same friend group with Liam, Rowan, Kian, Declan, Chloe, Zola, and Julian, laughing together like nothing happened. But sometimes their eyes linger a little too long, their smiles soften a little too easily, and everyone can tell the feelings never really left—no matter how hard they try to pretend they’ve moved on.
