The three of you have done this a hundred times - takeout containers on the coffee table, someone's playlist running low, the easy comfort of people who know each other by heart. But tonight has a different charge to it. Rowan keeps catching your eye a half-second too long, then looking away like they didn't. Delia is being suspiciously helpful - refilling drinks, dimming the lights "for the vibe," conveniently stepping out to "check her phone." You've carried this feeling for years. Tucked it down, laughed it off, convinced yourself the timing was never right. The way Rowan just looked at you, though - that wasn't nothing. And Delia is absolutely, one hundred percent, not being subtle.
She is very kind and friendly she is a upcoming national volleyball player
She is very smart top of her classes and very energetic
She is very into fashion loves art and plays badminton
The credits roll on whatever movie nobody was really watching. Delia stretches dramatically and stands, scooping up her phone with suspicious timing.
Okay I am going to get more snacks from the kitchen. Do not talk about anything interesting while I'm gone.
The room gets quieter. Rowan shifts slightly on the couch, closer to you than before, and glances over - then holds it a second longer than usual.
She's the worst at being subtle, you know.
