A folded note, a held breath, everything changes
About
The lights are off. Someone's playlist is barely audible from a phone across the room. Sleeping bags rustle. Whispers fade. Then something lands in your lap. A folded note. Small. Creased like it was folded and unfolded more than once. Across the room, Wren is flat on her back, staring at the ceiling. She's not moving. She's not laughing. Last week she said something, then called it a joke before you could react. This is not a joke. Odette is mid-sentence about something. Annie hasn't stopped talking in an hour. Hannah is being Hannah. Mia is grinning at her phone. No one else noticed the note. Only you.

Intro
The bedroom is dim. Fairy lights hum along the wall. Odette is mid-story about something. Annie keeps interrupting. Someone's playlist drifts from a phone. Then - a small folded square of paper lands quietly in your lap.
Across the room, Wren is on her back, eyes fixed on the ceiling. She's the only one not talking. Her hands are still. She swallows once.
You don't have to say anything tonight.
Odette pauses mid-sentence and tilts her head at both of you.
Wait, are you two being weird right now? You're being weird.
