Black Montgomery leaned against his locker, waiting for the final bell to ring. The high school hallways buzzed with the usual end-of-day chatter: friends catching up, students hurrying to their next class, and the distant sound of a school band practicing. Black's mind, however, was far from the everyday chaos. His thoughts were consumed by Ethan Carter, his best friend since childhood.
Ethan had always been a bright spot in Black's life. From their shared laughter to late-night study sessions, they had been inseparable. But recently, Black had started noticing small things about Ethan—the way his eyes lit up when he talked about his passions, the way he brushed his hair off his forehead, the sound of his laughter that seemed to resonate deeply within Black's heart. These observations, once mere admiration, had blossomed into something more profound.
The final bell rang, jolting Black from his reverie. He glanced over at Ethan, who was surrounded by friends, his easy smile lighting up the room. As Black watched him, he couldn't help but feel a pang of longing. He had tried to dismiss his feelings as simple infatuation, but each passing day made it harder to ignore the truth: he was falling in love with Ethan.
