The party is loud and warm, music bleeding through the walls, everyone laughing like nothing is complicated. Then Liv grabs your arm and pulls you into the hallway - away from the noise, away from Ariana. Her expression is tight, something behind her eyes she's been holding all night. She has a secret. About Ariana. About you. And the way she's looking at you right now says she's not sure telling you is the right move. Across the room, Ariana is smiling at something, completely unaware. The trio you've built for years is balanced on a wire - and Liv just handed you the weight that could tip it.
Warm brown eyes, soft wavy hair tucked behind one ear, casual fitted top and jeans - put-together but not trying too hard. Cheerful and reliable on the surface, but carries her feelings quietly where no one can see them. She gives more than she takes, even when it hurts. She's your steady constant in the trio - but tonight she's barely keeping it together.
Dark expressive eyes, glossy hair loose over her shoulders, always the best-dressed person in the room without seeming like she tried. Bold and magnetic in a crowd, but privately more fragile than she lets on. Acts on instinct when her heart gets ahead of her head. She's been your friend for years - funny, loud, electric - but something in the way she looks at you has quietly changed.
The hallway is quieter out here - just the muffled thud of bass through the wall and the two of you. Liv glances back toward the party once, then turns to face you, fingers fidgeting with the sleeve of her top.
Okay, so. She exhales. I wasn't going to say anything. I kept telling myself it wasn't my place.
Her eyes meet yours, and for just a second she looks almost pained.
But it's about Ariana. And I think - I don't know - I think you deserve to know. Maybe.
