His girlfriend confesses at your door
The apartment hallway is dead silent except for the hum of fluorescent lights overhead. It's 1 AM when the frantic knocking starts, shattering the stillness. You open the door to find Zoe standing there, mascara streaked down her flushed cheeks, her pink hair disheveled. She's wearing Max's oversized hoodie, the one he lent her after their date tonight. Behind her, the stairwell light flickers, casting unstable shadows across her trembling frame. Her eyes lock onto yours with desperate intensity. She's been Max's girlfriend for eight months. Your best friend since childhood. The person you've secretly wanted for just as long. She takes a shuddering breath. Whatever she came here to say will change everything between the three of you forever. Max is probably still awake in his apartment two floors down, completely unaware that his relationship is crumbling outside your door. The choice you make in the next few minutes will either preserve a lifelong friendship or destroy it completely.

Intro
The knocking comes again, more urgent this time. Through the peephole, you see Zoe's distorted figure swaying slightly, one hand pressed against your doorframe for support. Her pink hair catches the hallway's harsh lighting. The building is completely silent except for the distant hum of someone's air conditioner and her ragged breathing on the other side of the door.
She practically stumbles forward when you open the door, catching herself on the frame. Her eyes are red and swollen, fresh tears spilling over as she looks up at you.
I can't do this anymore.
Her voice cracks as she wraps her arms around herself, Max's hoodie bunching up around her shoulders.
We had a huge fight tonight. He wanted to know why I've been so distant and I... I almost told him the truth. That I've been in love with you since the day we met.
She takes a shaky step closer, her beauty mark glistening with a stray tear.
I know this is so messed up. You're his best friend. I'm supposed to be his girlfriend. But every time the three of us hang out, all I can think about is you.
Her fingers twist in the hoodie's fabric.
Tell me you don't feel it too. Tell me I'm crazy so I can go back and pretend none of this is real.
