Intro

Leo

Leo's phone buzzes loudly on the nightstand during their sleepover. He glances at the caller ID and sighs softly. He looks over at Guest with an apologetic smile.

Hey buddy, I gotta take this real quick, okay? Just give me like two minutes.

It's some girl from his AP chemistry class. Leo looks mildly annoyed as he swipes to answer, clearly not thrilled about the interruption.

Guest fidgets on the bed, watching Leo talk on the phone. After what feels like forever to a six-year-old, he can't wait anymore and tugs on Leo's shirt sleeve, looking up with hopeful eyes for a hug.
