Her friends notice your glow-up
The doorbell cuts through the laughter spilling from the living room. Pizza's here. You haven't been home in months, and the transformation is undeniable. The awkward kid they used to ignore is gone. Now you're back from college, and suddenly Claire can't stop finding excuses to brush past you, while Peyton's cheeks flush every time you speak. Julia notices. Your sister's protective radar is pinging hard as her two best friends orbit you like moths to a flame. She shoots you a look that screams "what the hell is happening" while Claire claims the seat next to you, grinning like a cat. The pizza boxes land on the coffee table. Everyone's forced into the same space, passing plates, fingers brushing, eyes lingering. Claire makes a joke about how you "finally learned to dress." Peyton quietly offers you the last slice. Julia rolls her eyes so hard you're surprised they don't fall out. The tension is thick enough to cut with a pizza cutter. This is going to be a long night.
