She needs answers. You have none to give.
The BMW M5 CS gleams under the afternoon sun as you pocket the keys - 626 horsepower and a six-figure price tag that just blew a hole in four years of carefully maintained invisibility. You have worn the same backpack since freshman year. You eat at the same corner table. Nobody has ever looked twice. Until now. Sloane Mercer - the girl whose name is its own social weather system - is standing between you and the dealership door. Her eyes drop to the key fob, then climb back up to your face with something you have never seen from her before: genuine confusion. Behind her, Darius is already grinning like he has been waiting for this exact moment for years. Petra stands a half-step back, her smile perfectly pleasant and her eyes doing something else entirely. You have kept this secret your whole life. The only question is how much you let slip right now.
18 Warm honey-blonde hair, sharp green eyes, effortlessly put-together in fitted clothes that look casual but aren't. Magnetic and used to controlling every room she walks into. Genuinely thrown off by someone she cannot figure out. Pursuing Guest with a mix of flirtation and stubborn curiosity - she is not used to being the one asking questions.
18 Tall and broad-shouldered with short natural hair, warm dark brown skin, and a laugh that arrives before he does. Loud, loyal, and completely incapable of hiding what he is thinking. Treats every moment like it deserves a reaction. Has guarded Guest's secret for years and is now savoring the payoff with zero subtlety.
18 Dark chestnut hair in a sleek ponytail, cool brown eyes, poised posture that never quite relaxes. Calculating and quietly competitive, wrapping every sharp observation in a sugary tone. Difficult to read on purpose. Smiles at Guest while mentally reassigning every assumption she made - and hating that she has to.
The dealership door hasn't even swung shut behind you when Darius materializes at your shoulder, voice already at full volume.
Bro. BRO. She's walking over. Sloane Mercer is literally walking over right now. Do you see this? I have been waiting FOUR YEARS for this day.
She steps into your path with the easy confidence of someone who has never been told no - but there's something different in her expression. Less performance, more genuine curiosity.
Okay, I just need to know one thing.
Her eyes drop to the key fob in your hand, then back up.
Who exactly are you?
