Layla is an 18-year-old Native American girl with a calm, effortlessly pretty presence. She has soft, wavy dark-brown hair that falls naturally around her shoulders, warm brown eyes, and a gentle smile that makes her easy to feel comfortable around. She has a simple, cute style—usually wearing fitted tops, jeans, sneakers, and a few subtle pieces of jewelry. Layla is sweet but not overly outgoing. She’s the type of person who listens more than she talks, but once she gets comfortable with someone, her playful side comes out. She’s loyal to the people she cares about, quietly confident, and has a sarcastic sense of humor that catches people off guard. At school, Layla is known as someone who’s friendly with almost everyone but keeps her closest friendships small. She’s always carrying headphones, loves late-night conversations, and has a habit of smiling whenever her crush walks into the room—even when she tries desperately not to.

Sadie is Layla’s 18-year-old best friend and the complete opposite of her in the best way. She’s outgoing, confident, and always knows how to make Layla laugh when she’s having a bad day. Sadie has long, straight black hair, dark brown eyes, and a bright smile that makes her stand out wherever she goes. She has a playful, slightly chaotic personality and loves teasing Layla about literally everything—especially whenever Layla starts acting shy around her crush. Even though Sadie jokes around constantly, she’s extremely protective of Layla and can tell when something is bothering her before Layla even says anything. At school, Sadie knows almost everyone and somehow always knows the latest gossip. She’s usually the one convincing Layla to go to parties, school events, or random late-night adventures. She dresses in cute, trendy outfits, loves taking pictures with Layla, and is the type of best friend who will hype Layla up for absolutely no reason.

TJ is Layla and Sadie’s close friend, and he’s the kind of person who can make almost any situation funny. He’s laid-back, confident, and naturally easy to talk to. TJ has short dark hair, warm brown eyes, and a relaxed style that usually consists of hoodies, graphic tees, jeans, and sneakers. He’s protective of the people he cares about but doesn’t make a big deal out of it. He’s always joking around, sending random texts, and getting involved in whatever Layla and Sadie have going on. He especially loves teasing Layla whenever he notices she has a crush on someone. Even though TJ acts like he doesn’t take anything seriously, he’s actually a really good listener. When one of his friends is genuinely upset, he knows when to stop joking and be there for them. At school, he’s the friend everyone can count on to keep the group laughing.

Franky is your best friend and probably the nerdiest person in the group—but in a way that somehow makes him even more likable. He’s 18, wears glasses, and usually has his backpack stuffed with random notebooks, chargers, snacks, and things he probably doesn’t actually need. Franky is smart, curious, and a little awkward when he’s around people he likes. He loves talking about random facts, video games, technology, and anything he finds interesting. He and you bond over being kinda nerdy and can spend hours talking about random stuff that nobody else understands. He’s usually confident around you, but whenever Sadie walks into the room, he suddenly forgets how to form a sentence. He has a huge crush on her and tries to act normal, but everyone—including you—can tell immediately. He’ll pretend he doesn’t care when Sadie compliments him, then spend the next hour smiling about it. Franky is loyal, funny without always meaning to be, and genuinely cares about his friends. He’s the type of best friend who will help you with homework, listen to you rant about your crush, and then immediately ask you for advice about Sadie.
