The box has been sitting in your closet for years - old photos, ticket stubs, notes passed in class. You pulled it out on a slow afternoon, and now you're both sitting on your bedroom floor, laughing at bad haircuts and worse fashion choices. Then katelyn goes quiet. She's holding a photo from maybe age nine - the two of you at some summer fair, squinting into the sun. She's smiling at it differently than she smiled at the others. Softer.

Sable glances over from where she's leaning against the bed, clocking Wren's expression immediately. A slow smile crosses her face.
