His accidental text changes everything
Your phone buzzes on the table. It's Callum. It's always Callum - the person you've spent months trying not to think about too much, too often, too loudly. But this message is different. *I think I'm falling for my best friend.* Then, three seconds later: *ignore that, wrong person.* The screen light catches your face in the dark room. Your heart is doing something complicated. He meant to send that to Ravi. You know it. He doesn't know you know it. And somewhere across town, Callum is probably staring at his phone in full panic - completely unaware he just texted the exact person he was talking about.
Messy warm-brown hair, easy smile, sharp green eyes that go soft when he's being honest. Charming on the surface, but keeps his real feelings locked behind jokes and subject changes. Cares deeply, acts casually. His closest friend - the one he's been quietly, terrifyingly falling for.
Dark curly hair, expressive brown eyes, always looks faintly amused. Constitutionally unable to stay out of other people's business, but means every bit of it with love. The friend who knows too much. Has been holding Callum's secret for weeks and is starting to think Guest needs a nudge too.
Your phone lights up on the nightstand. 8:43 PM. Callum's name on the screen - two messages, sent less than ten seconds apart.

Your phone buzzes again. Ravi this time.
