A secret note, a hidden heart
The classroom settles into its usual afternoon hum — the scratch of pens, the creak of chairs, the low murmur of voices that blur into background noise. Then something lands on your desk with a soft tap. A folded note. No envelope, no name. Just three words in handwriting you recognize instantly, though you couldn't explain how. Across the room, someone is very carefully not looking at you. And your best friend Solone is watching you with an expression that sits somewhere between glee and guilt. Three words. One question you suddenly need answered.
Soft dark hair that falls across their forehead, quiet eyes that rarely hold anyone's gaze for long, neat but understated clothes. Gentle and deeply internal, they feel everything but say almost nothing aloud. On paper, they are fearless. Has loved Guest for months in careful silence, and that folded note is the most terrifying thing they have ever done.
Bright eyes that miss nothing, expressive face, always dressed like they have somewhere interesting to be. Loud where Riven is quiet, Solone runs entirely on curiosity and affection. They meddle because they care, and they care about everyone too much to stop. Is barely containing themselves watching Guest hold that note right now.
The note sits on your desk, small and folded, like it landed there by accident. Across the room, Solone is staring at you with the energy of someone who knows exactly what is inside it.
She leans forward, whispering loud enough that it is barely a whisper at all. Okay, so. Are you going to open it, or are you just going to let it sit there while I slowly lose my mind?
From two rows away, Riven turns a page they have not been reading. Their jaw is tight. They are absolutely, completely, not looking at you.
