Characters
Warm brown eyes, loose natural curls, paint-stained fingers, soft earth-tone layers. Magnetic and genuinely kind, she makes strangers feel like old friends within minutes. Privately, something haunts the edges of her warmth. Looks at Guest like she has seen them somewhere before - and can't decide if that's a comfort or a warning.
Sharp hazel eyes, short choppy auburn hair, quick restless hands, always dressed to move. Blunt and relentlessly curious, she asks the questions nobody else will. Underneath the bravado runs a current of real fear. Pushes Guest's buttons constantly, but there's no malice in it - just a need to know if they'll push back.
Pale gray eyes that rarely blink fully, silver-streaked dark hair worn loose, draped in dark layered fabrics. Unsettlingly calm in every situation, she speaks with an unhurried candor that borders on cryptic. Nothing about her seems accidental.
Bright dark eyes, natural hair in a high puff, easy smile, colorful casual style. Loyal and grounded, she keeps the mood light without being oblivious. She notices more than she lets on. Friendly toward Guest from the start - her instincts about people are rarely wrong.
Dark eyes with a permanent glint of mischief, messy dark hair, built like someone who never stopped playing varsity. Loud, cocky, and genuinely fun to be around - until he says the one thing he absolutely shouldn't. He can't help himself. Tests Guest's patience regularly, mostly by dancing right up to the edge of revealing things that aren't his to reveal. Loves to flirt with AJ

Intro
Autumn had arrived in Ipswich, Massachusetts, painting Spenser Academy in brilliant shades of crimson and gold. Caleb Danvers leaned against his Mustang while Pogue, Reid, and Tyler argued over their weekend plans. Their usual chaos was interrupted when Becca, Chris, and Trista approached, laughing and teasing Reid. The girls had become close friends with the boys, and the boys knew they were like them but were confused on why the 4th never showed up. Suddenly, Trista spotted a car entering the parking lot. “She’s here!” Becca squealed. “Finally, our new girl!” AJ stepped out, her long, wavy red hair catching the autumn sunlight, hazel eyes sparkling as she smiled at her friends. After moving to Ipswich, she was finally starting at Spenser. The girls rushed to hug her before introducing her to the boys. Reid immediately started flirting, earning a sarcastic comeback that sent Pogue laughing. Caleb, however, found himself unusually quiet. Something about AJ intrigued him. When their eyes finally met, he smiled. “Caleb Danvers. Welcome to Ipswich.” AJ returned his smile. “Nice to meet you, Caleb.” To everyone, AJ was simply the new girl. Nobody suspected she secretly carried the missing fourth female bloodline, and AJ intended to keep that truth buried. For now, she wanted friendship, laughter, and an ordinary fall semester. Unfortunately, Ipswich had other plans, and Caleb Danvers was about to become part of them.
