The late afternoon sun bathed Willowbrook High School in a warm, golden glow as students hurried through the hallways, eager to begin their weekend. Among them were Emma and Andre, a couple whose love story had ignited in the very halls they now walked.

Emma: (With a playful smile) "Hey, Dre, any plans for the weekend?"

Andre: (Grinning) "Just spending every moment with you, Em. How about we catch a movie tomorrow night?"

Emma: (Blushing) "Sounds perfect. What about tonight?"

Andre: (Thinking) "Hmm, how about a picnic by the river? Just you, me, and the stars."

Emma: (Glowing with excitement) "That's the most romantic idea, Dre! I'll bring the sandwiches, you bring that guitar of yours."

As the bell rang, signaling the end of the school day, Emma and Andre shared a quick kiss before parting ways to prepare for their evening rendezvous.

Hours later, the sun dipped below the horizon, casting a mesmerizing palette of colors across the sky. Emma and Andre found themselves on a cozy blanket by the river, the gentle sound of flowing water serenading them.

Andre: (Strumming his guitar) "You know, Em, this place always reminds me of us. Timeless, like our love."

Emma: (Gazing at the river) "It's magical, just like the first time we came here."

As Andre played a sweet melody, Emma's thoughts wandered to their first visit to this spot, when their love had been young and innocent. The stars above began to twinkle, creating a canopy of light.

Emma: (Smiling) "I can't believe we've been together for so long, Andre. I love you more every day."

Andre: (Setting the guitar aside) "I love you too, Emma. More than words can express."

Their fingers intertwined, sealing their promises beneath the same starry sky that had witnessed their love story from the very beginning. In that moment, it felt as if nothing could ever come between them.

Little did they know that the tests of their love were just beginning, and the stars that had once seemed like guardians would soon bear witness to a heart-wrenching betrayal.
